While beginning my exterior security rounds at 2:15am I noticed an unusually bright light in sky approaching very quickly in manner that was not typical of most planes & jets in sky. As it approached very near my direction at a very fast pace I noticed more details unusual about this object. I fumbled to get my cell phone for video but it was so fast I could only manage a quick photo after it passed me. The most unusual thing I noticed was how large & long the object appeared and that there was a haze in front of the light(s) that were at the tail end of the object. At first I only saw it as one light in sky. I thought for a moment it was coming right at me almost as if it saw me. Then in the sky about even with me slightly north (airport to south) it was not very high I noticed there were two lights in a vertical line one after the other and the distance between indicating a very long object, much longer then a typical jet. It clearly appeared as one object. I thought for a! moment perhaps a blimp. The haze was very distinctive and oddly visible in front of the lights. It had a translucent appearance almost as like an "aura" and was shaped like a cigar (or torpedo). It did not look at all like smoke or an exhaust trail and most odd was again the length of the haze forward of the two lights that were in very clear view behind the long shaped "aura" of the object that could not be seen. It appeared to be descending in the sky but in direction not typical of the other planes that land at nearby airport but further south of the sighted object. My photo does not show the haze only the two lights at tail end. Lastly there is a nearby airport to the south of this sighting. Minutes later a descending commercial jet in typical fashion even at night was very visible and distinctly heard as it descended for landing. The object I saw to the north was equally close enough to be heard and much larger & longer had me creeped out by the ee! ry silence. I called local police shortly after returning from rounds to report sighting and find out if anyone else reported anything. It was clearly visible at all time to anyone who may have been out at 2:15am. No reports had been made by others at that time and I declined to leave name or contact.

Lebanon, PA
Saw in night sky, about a football stadium away but obviously farther, itUFZo appeared to resemble a large aircraft possibly a DC 10 or 727 but was dark in appearance as we could see the outline. It had a red blinking light in back and blue blinking light in front. As we watched, it appeared to come down quickly in a 15 degree angle. The object did not change size, shape, or color even though it got closer. Then it appeared to hoover for around 5 minutes with both lights flashing red then they blinked back to red and blue. Then we didn't see it again. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Kill Devil Hills, NC
This was taken from a balcony on the beach front at Kill Devil Hills North Carolina. This craft was slow moving but was able to vertically clime at 90 degrees at speeds that were unimaginable, almost as if it teleported. The object glowed a pale green and emitted no noise. At one point near the end of the sighting an unidentified black helicopter approached from over the water and began following the light. It then proceeded to vertically climb and disappeared. The helicopter proceeded to pull back and leave the area upon it climbing. Animals nearby also were on edge and or barking during this event.

I saw a cigar shaped object circling over a field. I watched it from a car until we drove out of sight.

Wimberley, TX
I was driving home and it was 8:10pm, clear skies, and this "star" caught my eye and I guess it was turning and the sun hit it just right and it looked like a star, as I was looking at it, I lost it and I said wait a minute that's not a star. As I was turning onto my street I saw it and it was a metallic color and it was just hovering there, in the southern sky, which San Antonio, Tx, is south of where I was at, so I stopped my car and when I got out with my phone to get a video it started moving east and then started moving south and then as it took off to the South a plane flew over and that was at 8:40pm Central Time.. and I have video

Freeport, NY
roughly at 7:15 pm, an object, looked like a shooting start, emerged from behind the trees, which is the ocean, and shot up across the sky. It was still very much light outside. I saw it fly for about 4 seconds, before it just disappeared. It was not a plane, or a firework. I was sitting outside, and I was in perfect view of it. It left a trace behind it, which disappeared almost instantly.

Chalfont, PA
While observing a hawk soaring 300 feet above the ground, I noticed a green light at a much higher altitude - approximately 40,000 feet, just slightly below the upper level cirrus. Then I noticed the light was on one end of a fairly long object with a yellow light on the opposite end. The shape looked like the edge of a silver iPhone, with a green light on one end and a yellow light on the other. After observing it for 20 or so seconds, I noticed 3 more identical objects appear slightly below the first. The group of objects appeared to be moving in a south-easterly direction, though at a very slow speed. Over the course of a minute or 2 the lower 3 craft disappeared from my sight, but the one I initially spotted was visible for nearly 5 minutes. It eventually became more and more difficult to pick out in the sky. These objects were higher than any of the commercial airliners that few by the vicinity. There were other people there with me but were unable to see! what I was seeing. Background: I'm a sailplane pilot and often look to the sky at soaring birds. I've noticed that if you stare at a patch of sky for a while on a clear day you can find gaggles of birds soaring in the 3000-5000 foot range. Also, I don't like flying with polarized sunglasses, but on this day I had a new pair that are polarized. Sunglass can help you see definition in clouds and sky that you wouldn't otherwise notice.

Lexington, NE
Location: Lexington, NE; Dawson County Call received in: Kearney, NE; Buffalo County Date: 6/21/19 Time: ~21:12 I received a call from my father around 21:00 where he told me that the object was still hanging in the same location. We spoke for about 10 minutes before he excitedly mentioned an object with a flaming tail moving toward the initial UFO. He didn’t mention any sort of strike, but the second “flame-tail” object continued moving east. Within a minute, I could see this second object above Kearney, flying surprisingly low. It was streaking a pair of vapor trails as it flew east. It was flying low enough that my phone could flicked in and out of focus on it as I trying taking snapshots. What my dad assumed was a flaming tail, I figured was the reflection of the sunset on the lower-rear hull, as the sun was setting. As low as the plane was, the wingspan seemed too narrow to be a commercial airliner. It was also flying far faster than I recall my flight from Denver to Omaha ever going, as it flew into Kearney airspace and left it in what felt like less than a minute. As a strange coincidence, several sirens started going off near my house at the same time. I couldn’t tell if they were police or ambulance sirens, but they faded before long.

Heppner, OR
It was around 10:00 am. I was facing West with the sun at my back. I could see what appeared to be an airplane at a very high altitude moving fast. There was no vapor trail. The unusual part was you could not see any wings. The aircraft UFO was moving fast but at such a high altitude, it had the classic “cigar” shape. The color of the object was white. Occasionally it would seem to be greyer. It was so high there was no indication of flames, lights, windows, just a smooth cigar shape, no detail. I am used to seeing the satellites at night such as the ISS and I am very familiar with military aircraft and commercial airliners they fly over our house all the time. This time it was different it raced across the sky traveling from the North heading in a South (Southwest) direction. The sky was mostly clear with a few clouds but this vehicle was different. Its path never varied and eventually I could not see it. My daughter said she could still see it after I sai! d I could not. I was hoping to see if anyone else happen to see it.

Oak Creek/Sedona, AZ
While renting a private home in the Oak Creek village of Sedona, I wanted to go outside and look at the stars. They say their much brighter here at night. It was approximately 10:30 PM I was in the back yard looking up at the galaxy of stars that was truly amazing. I saw a shooting star right off. My eyes were drawn to a perfect triangle of 3 stars way out in the galaxy. They were twinkling. I thought it was unique enough to want to try and take a picture of the triangle of stars, thinking they probably wouldn’t even show up using my iPhone. I used 2X zoom. I did not see this object until I looked at the photo afterwards. First you see the hedges/bushes separating the neighbors house behind ours. That's their porch light lower center. Then their treetops. Above that you see a cigar shaped UFO at an unusual angle. I was excited. This is the actual untouched photo.

Multiple red and blue blinking lights at various altitudes, 2 seem to be moving inline together moving at equal distances apart in various directions. 3 others seem to be triangulated moving in a circular pattern but staying in the same basic location…

A long slender shaped rectangle craft was seen in a vertical fashion moving across the ski very slowly. The object went behind a cloud (it was a very cloudy day) and disappeared. Pulled over into a parking lot to get a better look or picture but it was gone.

Atlanta, GA
So honestly it didn’t look very odd at first it just looked like a plane but the more I looked at it the more I could see it looked more like a cigar (granted it was very far away). What really made me report it though was the distance it was covering. Like 15ish miles a second and when I did some calculations that would be close to 60000 mph. Which is ungodly fast, there also seemed to be some intelligent maneuvering going on which makes me believe it wasn’t a rocket. (It continually changed direction) although I’m no expert in weapon systems. It could have been nothing but it seemed odd, odd enough that I wanted to research and report it.

I showed my son and when I looked away to the road my son said that the one on the right went down then left in straight lines and traded places with the one that was on the left. Passing some trees the two objects were still there but half their original size. I said WTH and we passed more trees and they were no longer visible. We couldn't stop talking about it.

Surprise, AZ
At 01:45 hrs., I was feeding my horses, I was done with that and went beside my house, I was talking to my niece through her window and noticed a clicking sound coming from a outside automatic light that does not work, it sets almost to the apex of the house, so I was looking directly straight up. When I did, I noticed a bright white flash, it was so bright that it was like someone flashed a flash bulb point blank in my face. I tried to focus on that part of sky again looking in that general area and about 5 seconds later another blinding flash with a pulsing coming from the exact same light, as it was pulsing I got a pretty good view that it seemed to be cigar shaped and really super high. The pulsing stopped and then it was super hard to see because of how high it was but, I kept looking in that direction and noticed a commercial jetliner going the same direction but I did not want to lose where I saw this object. Then, again it flashed really bright, this time I had a little perspective as it started to pulse again and the jetliner that I saw earlier was approximately 4 miles away traveling the same direction as the object, the jet was way further than the object so the object was traveling super slow and much, much higher. The object stopped pulsing and it was again very difficult to see. I tried to adjust my eyes to the speed that the object was travelling at and noticed it pulsing again, this time it did not flash but again travelling super slow. Like half blimp speed if that makes any sense! The object was moving west to east, I watched it pulsing then go dark, then pulsing, and going dark. I watched this for approximately 8 more minutes, but I went in the house because I was having trouble seeing it anymore! I have never seen anything like this before. I know it wasn't any airplane, as airplanes have other colored lights that blink, this did not have any lights like that. I know it was not a satellite because I have seen those and they shine and move fast and when they get out of the sun's light they slowly disappear. A weather balloon while it could possibly move that slow, it could not have produced that bright white light that flashed and seriously blinded me for a couple of seconds and they do not have lights that pulse. I was the only one who saw this, I do not have any photos or video of it, actually I was so astonished that it was like I was paralyzed trying to make sense of what I saw.

Huge cigar shaped vehicle with big bright white/yellow lights on each end and what looked like fire inside each light moving very slow heading southwest. No noise. Traveled very slow then turned south and disappeared behind light fog and was gone.

Approx. train location when the sighting started: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=14/50.394/2.9795 Sun: It was just after 20:00 and the day was pretty clear, I was traveling towards south, and the sighting happened towards east/northeast, as the train moved away. The sun was in the opposite side of the train from where I saw the UFO. Weather: Sparse clouds with noticeable movement because of the wind. Velocity: The train was traveling at more than 100Km/h and less than 160Km/h, judging from nearby highway traffic observed later in the trip. Sighting: I was traveling in a seat facing the opposite direction of train movement, and first observed the object in the closest distance in the entire sighting. I noticed a white, long object (slimmer than an airliner) with an apparent size that for me at first felt like a bus- sized object. As I was moving my point of view along with the train, the object always seemed static, staying above the same place. No other aircraft was seem during the sighting, but later on I saw airplanes and their movement is very discernible. As I moved away I could see only its ‘front’, ‘round’ side, that reflected very well the light of the sun allowing for me to see it for more 4-5Kms. This view was partially obscured by thin clouds, so my notion of initial size can be wrong. As I moved away it became a shining white dot. I lost sight after the train track got lower than ground level in a ditch, and made a curve toward Arras.

Fulton, MS
I witnessed a stationary silver cigar craft about 2 miles in the distance. It appeared to be 500 feet above the ground. Object was approx. 50-60 feet in width. It stayed stationary for 1-2 minutes, then moved at an extremely slow speed moving from east to west. I lost sight of it once it hit the clouds in the distance. It was not a helicopter or a drone. It made no noise and did not show any exhaust system.

On the 405 we saw a very large cigar shape, like a plane with no wings and no windows. Grey and it was at a slant in the air not much higher than a overpass. It was very large for a split second I thought a plane was crashing or an immediate landing? Hovering very low saw the object for 2 seconds maybe 3 and then nothing? We looked everywhere as fast as we could- nothing? Very strange. My husband is a financial advisor. I’m a retired music manager. We have never witnessed a UFO but this is something to report it was there and then it wasn’t we are beyond perplexed… We spoke via telephone with the source of the report, and she seemed to us to be quite sober-minded. We suspect that she is a highly capable, and reliable, witness. PD
