My husband saw a sparkle in the sky and thought it was a balloon. I thought it was too high up and big to be a balloon so I grabbed my camera with a super zoom on it and was able to get 2 photos (camera is auto focus so it was really difficult to focus on the object) It's an s shaped object easily as high up as a plane and possibly as large, unfortunately there's no real scale or perspective.

I was in my front yard looking at the Super Pink Moon with my neighbor in the evening on the evening of April 26th, 2021. We were both using binoculars to look at the Tycho cratering on the moon that night. I heard him say "do you see that" just as a very large craft moved from right to left below the moon at a very great distance. What struck me was the sheer size of this craft. This is going to sound a bit silly perhaps but I can only describe it as being similar in shape and size as the star destroyer in the movie Star Wars. The ship moved into what appeared to be a clear night sky however as it passed the light of the moon it seemed to dissolve into nothing as if it was slowly melting into the night sky again. This process took only a minute or so before the entire craft was no longer visible. I couldn't beleive how much texture was visible at that distance giving me the impression it was massive. It was dark gray and black in color that had no ! visible lights or light source of it's own. I was filled with an irrational sense to run in a fight or flight impulse. We continued to watch the surrounding sky for another 30-45 minutes before calliing it a night and returning indoors.

Fort Myers, FL
Morning of April 26, 2021, ~06:21-06:23 We were watching the setting moon of fantastic colour, reported to be the first super moon of the year. From this westernly direction we had been looking in, a fast moving light appeared. We don't know the elevation or exact speed. It resembled closely what a satellite might look like if it was more relatively fixed in position. It moved in an easternly direction, towards the the sun that had yet to rise. At fist we thought it a plane, but it could not be any commercial or recreational aircraft judging by how fast it appeared to move. We did not hear or feel the sound barrier breaking. We considered the object possibly to be of military or Space X origin, but we, cannot say for certain. The object soon disappeared within a minute or two. We were unprepared to do calculations of any sort.

At approximately 5:52 pm my girlfriend commented on an unknown flying object which was across the waterway, perhaps 1/4 mile west, perhaps a couple hundred feet south of our position and roughly a 20 degree angle in altitude from the balcony. When I turned my attention I saw a multipointed star shaped object, symetrically bulging in the middle, black in color and intermittently reflecting the sunlight. The object was perhaps 50-75 feet below a small Cessna type single engine aircraft flying northwest. The size was roughly 1/3 of the length of the plane above it. At first I assumed this was an object being towed under the aircraft as its speed ans direction appeared to match. What happened next surprised me though as the object deviated towards due north along the waterway and the plane continued on its path. I then observed the object continuing northward and maintaining relatively level flight. I watched it into the distance and lost visual contact as it appeared to go over the buildings of downtown Fort Lauderdale approximately 9 miles to the north, passing just east of the fort Lauderdale airport. The entire episode lasted less than 15 seconds. I did not perceive any noise from the object above the background street and plane noise. There was no contrail, visible means of propulsion or anything I would associate with a control surface. I would have thought it was some sort of balloon if not for the speed, horizontal orientation and level flight. I was able to shoot a few seconds of video at the tail end of my visual contact which I will email separately.

Saw what I thought was a crescent moon, yellow and orange in color. Went to get my dog and thought it was overcast, why can I see the Moon. When I walked back to look again it had changed shape. It's top half was gone and a large orange light was now in the center. The bottom of the crescent faded and the orange light got bigger. The shape started to lose color and size going to white. It just reduced till it was gone.

He has not reported sighting. 1 picture has street light in bottom left corner to help evaluate pictures taken with mobile phone. Not sure if it is Alien or something that can be explained

Object was high (one to two thousand feet?). Was metallic. Kept having aura flash around it which would obscure the flying object entirely but not due to blinding light (possibly due to sun?), but at least 40 times this happened. No sound, no trails. Hovered overhead and then eventually kept going (not at fast speed). Again probably a drone...but odd. Plenty of pictures of the event on phone.

Tonight along the Ohio river in southern Indiana looking 183 degrees south and about 30 degrees off the horizon we observed what we believed at first to be a potential supernova. We observed several bursts projecting in the same linear direction and it was very bright. Then a few more in another direction originating from what we had thought to be a star it grew brighter and appeared to dance between 182-184 degrees by my compass. Then as it began to apparently fade a bright something neared it’s proximity and then darted quickly from the area in witch we believed we were seeing a supernova. Then object that moved off quickly seemed to have a solid burning white omission and traveled on a heading of west by northwest until I lost sight of it in the horizon. The fast moving object was oval-ish and very bright. It had went straight for the star from below the tree line. As it neared the star like object it grew brighter. It was extremely fast at times. My ele! vation was 620 feet above sea level and the observation of these objects began 9:15 and continued until around 10:00 when what we believed to be a supernova had danced around and grew so dim we nearly couldn’t pick it out These observations were made by 3 individuals one of witch is an elderly man who has marveled into the night sky for his entire life he proclaimed he had never seen anything like that he has flown planes at night and served in our navy and said that-that is strange shit

While on a walk around the local school track with my wife at about 2030 hrs I observed in the direction of west-southwest and to the right of the constellation Orion a large bright white flash which lasted 1-2 seconds. I did not see any identifiable civilian or military aircraft beacon lights. Exact altitude unknown but my guess around 10,000 feet. At about 2036 a second flash occurred this time in the center of the Orion constellation lasting 1-2 seconds. The. At 2045 a third bright white flash occurred to the left of Orion. However after the third I observed what looked to be a dull shape remaining at the exact location of the flash. I continued to look at the dull shape then it seemed to go away or disappear. The light was circular and reminded me of a photographers flash. My wife did not see the flashes unfortunately. But did collaborate that no civilian or military aircraft was anywhere the vicinity of the constellation. Cannon AFB is located southwest about 38 miles from us bury they rarely fly on Sunday nights. They do during the week have regular flight training paths over out small town.

While star watching and satellite spotting, an orbital object passed over Blount County Alabama, from a heading of 324 degrees NW towards the SE at 144 degrees. The object had a luminosity about half as bright at the ISS and was moving at typical satellite speed. Twice the object came to complete stop in its path, made a large arc course correction, then continued on its SE trajectory until out of view over horizon.

Going home my wife saw what appeared to be an ambulance at our house. I look and saw it too. We were only about 0.1 miles away. When we got there, there was no sign of the ambulance. We looked around and could not see any possible cause of the lights. We are not sure if we saw a UFO or some kind of time shift or what. I thought this was the best way to report it.

Amarillo, TX
Very visible long straight line of white lights, not blinking but constant, very close together appearing to be originating from the same craft. Craft was moving from NW to SE at a rapid rate but gave no sound at all. Craft appeared to be high in the sky, approximately 7000 ft. Was not low, which adds to the enormous size of the craft. Craft faded out very high in the sky after passing over, which again proves it was enormous and not an optical illusion. Craft flew at a constant speed. Could not see a defined shape of the craft, only the lights. Took photo with camera on phone.

Driving home from Kingman, AZ after grocery shopping a silver string ray shaped with a glowing neon green cockpit lit up plus only green and blue exhaust flames coming out of tail end instantly appeared over my car windshield about 5 to 6 feet in the air.As if watching over me driving in darkness down my dirt road for a couple of minutes until I reached my house. Then just disappeared into the clear dark night. Plus have caught lots of pictures of objects flying around my house and found several burned up bushes from exhausted flames. Been trying to find someone to report the sightings to since they were acquiring nightly. Told my brother Joe and my daughter Ashley about it. My Brother Joe thought I was seeing things until I showed him the photos from my security cameras outside. My Daughter Ashley told me to contact MUFON or the Authorities. Couldn't find any contact info to MUFON and had searched their site. So I gave up and started staying with friends and family and not at my home alone. Would really like for someone to please come out there and investigate the happenings and numerous sightings. My Brother Joe finally believed me when he was visiting one weekend helping me fix barbed wire fencing around the house. When he seen for himself strange objects flying over us in the night. Also witnessed by his girlfriend Cathy who was helping us. There was a formation of lights which thought were a squadron of military planes but there was no sound and then they flew out of sight instantly. We have more details but too much to explain on this report. Due to the fact this has been on going for almost a year. Would like to know what is going on around my house.

There were 3 spheres in a row connected by a tic tac shaped craft that ran through the lower middle section of the spheres. The encounter lasted only a few seconds. I wasn't able to get my cell phone ready in time to take a picture. It was across the street and I could only see it between the middle of the wires. The object itself didn't cross through the wires (which would have made it very small, rather the wires were between me and the object.

I was outside on my porch when I saw a string of 50 lights or so crossing over the sky from the northeast. I ran inside and told my boyfriend to come out and see. We both watched the string or line of lights continue on a southwestern path and disappear into the clouds.

I was driving to my 5am work shift. It was 4:45am and I was the only one on the road. I wasn’t even listening to music because I was trying to get my Apple Music to work and it wasn’t connecting. As I’m driving, a huge spotlight appears on the road above my car and slightly to the left. It quickly moves to the left, then it moves to the right. Then it sees my car and settles on my car and me. It was dead silent. I sped up to get away and it disappeared. I was driving north on 15th Ave before the Ballard bridge in Seattle, Washington. I’m not crazy, there was no streetlights or helicopters above me or anything and the moon wasn’t even visible like it was pitch black, silent, and I was alone. It was about 20 seconds long. I was unsettled all day. The beam of light wasn’t really visible, just the circle of light on the ground. It felt like someone shining a flashlight from above and seeing movement (my car) and settling on it. It also kept pace with being above my car as I moved until it settled on me. It was illuminated inside the car as well. Extremely unsettling. What is even more unsettling is this was on Wednesday and after work I had an errand to run with a friend that was very memorable for the two of us and we took photos even. That night, I had a dream that was extremely vivid and detailed and it was a complete “re-do” of my Wednesday - I had slept in for my shift at work but still went in, worked a whole shift, had meaningful conversations with people, went home and napped on the couch. I woke up in bed then next day (Thursday) stunned by my dream. I usually do not dream at all. It could be a coincidence, or it could be a possible tampering of my conception of time and try to “replace” that day? I told the friend I went on the errand with about the spotlight as soon as it happened and then about the dream. They confirmed that Wednesday happened just as inexperienced (the spotlight in the morning and then the errand) and that I did not disappear. The photos we took are still on my phone, as is all my messages about the spotligh! t. I am just so unsettled by the entire occurrence. I was absolutely being watched.

Longwood, FL
Observer background: Engineer working in the defense industry. Healthy adult with good hearing and vision. Time of sighting: 8:07 PM, US Eastern time, 4/4/2021 Duration of sighting: 3 minutes The weather at the time of the sighting was clear. There was very little wind at ground level, no clouds were in the sky, and the sun was setting. I saw a light in the sky off to the East. At first I assumed it was an aircraft, but I noticed it looked a bit odd. There was only a single light, and it seemed to be "flickering" the way a reflected fire might. The object seemed to be at a fairly high altitude, approximately that of a commercial aircraft; higher than a helicopter would typically fly. The object was moving from East to West in what seemed to be a straight line, at a very consistent and somewhat slow speed, compared to a commercial jet. The object didn't fly directly over me, I was a bit North of its path. As it came closer I realized the illumination on the object was because it was reflecting the setting sun - that it's front surface was apparently reflective. At least, that is my assumption. When the object went past me and I could see the bottom and back of it, I saw no other lights. No running lights of any kind were visible. The bottom and rear sides appeared dark or black. The object did not appear to be large, and I could not make out any detail. It appeared to be a "simple" shape such as an oval or sphere. There were no wings, no fins, or other projecting parts visible. The object did not leave any visible wake or contrail behind it. There was no detectable sound from the object at any point during the sighting. The object continued on its straight-line course at the same consistent altitude and speed until it was out of sight over the treeline on the Western horizon. No other observers were nearby.

-I filmed entire event via a night vision / infrared monocular; -object not visible to naked eye, only the monocular; -i am a lawyer in DC and MD and i practice law. However i have an interest in the ufo genre and occasionally film sky from my bed through the window; -my viewing window looks approximately east/south east; -i know what planes, stars, planets, and helicopters look light at night; -the object was four to five lights arranged parallel to ground (i.e. a line of lights parallel to ground) appearing as one craft. The light formation was at a slight tilt to the left and hovering, it seemed; -occasionally, little flashing orbs would appear in my viewfinder around the possible craft/light formation. I had been witnessing many of these bright flashing orbs for about 45 mins before the light formation appeared. I filmed the flashing light orbs as well. Orbs also not visible to naked eye but only through the camera/monocular; -all lights seemed to appear as the color similar to a halogen lamp like, say, the headlights of a contemporary BMW; -The potential craft/light formation seemed to flash in two or three areas along the craft, not seeming to move at all, but rather, hovering; -I zoomed in a few times (36x) and saw more clearly that this was indeed a formation of four or five lights, a possible single craft; -I lost track of the light formation after a few minutes but the light orbs continued flashing ; -the video is shaky bc no image stabilizer; -I tried to get the ground and/or stars in the pic for perspective; -i cannot gauge how far out the object was nor its size. Same with the flashing orbs. I believe it/they was/were at least a few thousand feet in air and about 2 to 3 miles away from me. The flashing orbs were all over the east/southeast view at various times throughout the recording; -I have been seeing the flashing orbs for the past couple months and gave a number of recorded films of said objects. For example on july 4, 2021 i filmed a series of flashing orbs close to/nearby a fireworks display; -happy to share videos; -please do not reveal my identity; -please use email for contact.

What I saw has to do with the rising of the moon. One night the moon rose from the North-esst horizon and then a week later the moon rose slightly south east. It basically rose in two different places a week or so apart. I don't know what this may mean. Thanks

I will type a more thorough narrative later, but I witnessed two abnormally shaped objects appearing to tumble end over end through the sky at fairly low altitude. They were silent and didn't appear to have any propulsion. But they didn't appear to lose any altitude as they traveled towards the horizon either. I managed to video it although the video isn't great. I've attached it.

The floating object appeared South of my location the sun directly overhead on a cloudless sky . No trees to block vision , not looking through glass or window. Easily seen . It appeared to be very large and appeared to be less than a mile away. Hovering approximately 400-500 ft above trees in the distance .The objects shape was like nothing I’ve ever seen . Large flat top ,left side straight down and smooth right side appeared to be an upside down staircase and tapered down near the bottom. The side that I saw was completely silver in color and with no movement disappeared with blue sky’s where it was . At that moment I told the other witness to turn around and to see it appear again in the same location when we both saw it appear again and disappear again with no movement at all . Approximately 20 seconds and never saw it again . A friend of mine who lives right near the location of what I saw has a motion sensor video close up and very good quality taken! week or so earlier . Very very interesting. I’ve never seen a video this close up .This must be seen . I will have him post it .

I was taking pictures of incoming commercial aircraft from my patio in tampa,fl on March 19,2021 with my Nikon 3400 digital camera.I then downloaded the pictures from my camera to my computer, On reveiwing the pictures I took, I came across a picture of a aircraft flying southbound and below it lower and quite a distance from it is a object I cannot identify. when you zoom in it reveals a object that is apple shaped but out of focus.and as I was shooting to the west at approx 4pm the object seems to be reflecting the sun. I can assure you I have not altered the picture in any way,nor am I interested in any gain from this picture, I just want an expert opinion on what the object may be.

Heading east on long divide road, noticed a perfectly string of lights. Stopped to see what it was. I tried to record but cell phone would not pick up what i was seeing. Heading northeast lights as bright as most visible stars were lined up and materializing and simultaneously disappearing in a perfect line i counted 32. Random lights would be slightly brighter and randomly "break up" into a triangle shape. The center bright spot was there and then would transform into a slowly rotating triangle up to a certain size from my view. I seen 3 or 4 brighter dots do this. They came from the same spot in the sky and the string continued to the same spot in the sky to which they disappeared. One after the other perfectly spaced, perfectly in sync with speed. Massive amounts of "shooting stars" within my vision spectrum of concentration on these lights. I sat and watched these lights for 2-3 minutes before the last one came and went just like thos! e before it. I never seen this type of activity in my life and I'm left awestruck as to what possibility it could truly be. At first glance of recognition I'm like huh what's that constellation never seen that before. Then i realized it was too perfect and stopped. Then realized they were physically moving and grabbed my phone to attempt to record.

Triangle with the front with glowing Red and Orange/Purple light. Came from Southeast from ocean. Stayed in that same type formation. Then it glowed bright white from front tip of triangle formation. Fired a white type circular type object that traveled west then went towards the west. It circled over the Cape Fear River to MOTSU Sunny Point Military Ocean Terminal. Then back over land to the ocean, Then it disappears. Kinda like it burned out or went dark. Estimated speed was at least 4x a normal airliner it appeared. No noise at all. Idk if it’s extra terrestrial or some military aircraft. But seems very high tech with extreme high speed. Btw: It’s becoming routine to see these strange incidents between 20:15 to 22:45 hours almost every night now. If it’s clear outside. Always coming off the ocean. Never appear on flight tracker either.
