Belgrade, MT
Last night (Jan 10, 2019) at about 10:40pm MT, my sister and I were in our driveway and noticed two sets of lights moving together from west to east over Belgrade, MT. My sister commented that two planes shouldn’t be flying that close together. We watched the lights and realized they were moving exactly in tandem, one after the other, about the length of a football field apart. The light in front was a blinking white light, and the lights in the back were blinking in a fast pattern red and white. We assumed this was one plane following the other, but then realized that the area between the two sets of lights was totally blacked out, and as it passed, we could see stars blacked out behind it. It was very dark, and we couldn’t clearly see an outline of an aircraft, but it appears it was sort of shaped like a long, slim blimp. There was no noise, and the craft was moving slower than flights we normally see coming into the airport area of Belgrade for landing. It was also fairly low to the ground, and it continued directly east over Bozeman and continued eastward until we could no longer see the lights. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and she seemed quite eloquent and sober-minded to us. We suspect she is a very good witness. PD

Went out in the morning and looked east to see a large fuselage (cigar) no wings, no tail, no blinking lights. Airplanes should still have lights on at that time. Watched it move from south to north for several seconds, wishing I had my phone. It went through a cloud and was never seen again.

Cicero, IN
While driving on St. Rd 19 in Cicero, Indiana, I noticed an extremely bright oval shape in the sky. It was just hovering from the time I noticed it for about a minute. It then moved to the west before rapidly becoming a pinpoint and disappeared. The brightness never changed, just the size of the object until I couldn't see it. From the time the object moved until I couldn't see it anymore was a couple of seconds.

Baldwin City, KS
Witnessed 7 unidentifiable objects along the horizon West of Baldwin City. There were 2 cigar shaped white objects and 5 (smaller) white lights surrounding them. As the sun began to set the lights did not get brighter like a star would but would disappear and then reappear. The objects did not move around the sky but remained stationary until the sun went down and the lights disappeared.

Lihue, HI
I was sleeping and I heard this buzzing noise outside my window so I got up and checked it out. When I opened my front door, I saw this glowing light about 20 feet from me. It was super bright and almost blinded me. Then I passed out. I woke up in my bed and I never remembered getting up and walking to my bed that night. I got up and found bruises like after you get shots. It was the scariest moment of my life.

Clayton, NC
December 4, 2018 about 5:30 pm at dusk. Sky was orange colors from sun set. Clouds were dark. Very pretty sunset. In my car, waiting at traffic light at highway 42 west, to turn left onto Government Road in Clayton, NC. While waiting to turn, I was looking West. Something moving caught my attention. At the tree level, which I estimate to be around Cornwallis Road, which is West of Government Road about 1 mile away. Something was flying low above tree level. Very long, (comparing size with distance) slender shape. No lights could be seen on shape. Dark like the clouds; black silhouette. Could not see wings or tail of an airplane. No sound was heard. Object was moving very slowly from south to north. I had to move with traffic, so, I made my turn. It was very unusual. We see military large cargo planes all the time around here. They fly low, but, this was even lower.

I turned down a side road and as I came into a clearing. I happened to look up and noticed how low the clouds were that day. As I looked around I seen this cigar shaped thing in the sky. It appeared to be very shiny like chrome. The closer I got it just seemed to disappear into a invisible doorway in the sky.

Above us were lights moving straight through the sky, it seemed to he somewhat of a cigar shape and made bo noise. From the looks of the bright blue and red lights, it looked very close, but with the windows rolled down it didn't make a sound.

White Hall, MD
Very large set of white lights in the sky. Many military planes flew toward it which gave perspective of the size. It was quite large. The lights were far off in the distance and took up a good deal of space in the sky. When we saw the military planes flying towards it and saw how little they looked compared to it, it became obvious that whatever they were flying towards was quite large. It looked like a long cylinder with many white lights. As soon as the planes flew over our house, the lights disappeared. About 5 min later, the military planes were flying back the other direction from which they came. One flew right over the deck and was very large. Its wings looked like a B52.

I was out taking fall pictures at Kickapoo State Park. I didn't notice anything while I was on location, but when I got home to download my pictures onto my computer, I noticed that there is one picture that has an anomaly in the sky. I took a couple of shots in the same general area and only one of the pictures has this object in the sky. I have the RAW file to prove that the object was not added post production.

North Branford, CT
I was walking home after taking an evening walk as always around that time, and of course it's CT so it is cold outside and gets dark early. The sky was already pitch black. I looked up in the sky for a moment and heard what I can only describe as the sound of a trombone when you blow really hard. And I saw a cigar shaped black saucer with a flagpole like thing on the top of it's buble window. It had a blinking light that was white in the front, and a white light in the back that didn't blink. It would fly east from where I was standing. And when it flew it would stop for about ten seconds, then continue to fly for another ten over and over about five times until it just shot really fast out of sight going east. It still made that trombone sound even when it stopped flying. That is all I saw.

Bozeman, MT
I am getting out of my car at midnight after attending a party in Bozeman. I look up as I park my car in my driveway and couldn't believe my eyes. There was a stagnant craft just above the clouds. The craft was not visible for it was very cloudy, but it was flashing blue on and off. The blue light was in the shape of a cigar. I was with my girlfriend and managed to call my brother and my best friend. They were able to step outside and view it as well. It flashed in a cigar shape above the clouds for about 15 minutes at midnight. I tried to film it but the footage on my potato iphone was so bad in the night that it wasn't even worth posting it. After 15 minutes, the craft stopped flashing. We never saw the craft and my girlfriend believed it was a drone. It very well could of been one although if it was, it was a drone unknown to the public. It was completely silent. This was seen by many people in the Bozeman area. Just weeks after I started to experience very sophisticated dreams (beyond your wildest dreams I promise) of boarding these crafts, tall beings, culture, and technology. These dreams are of mere inspiration and creativity and has helped me fortify a foundation in a book I am currently writing. Hope this helped! Cheers!

Lawrenceville, GA
UFO occurrence Tonight, around 10:55 pm, I saw a strange dark object gliding in the sky. It had no lights what so ever. I live in the suburbs of a large city several miles away. There is some light distraction causing the inability to see all the stars, typical. There were thin and high altitude clouds moving across about a 3 quarter moon. I could still see the moon brightly through the thin layer of clouds creating a silhouette of sorts. I often look up to Southern sky in an opening space of 70 feet or so, between some tall pines. As I looked up to see the moon, I also noticed how fast the clouds were moving, mostly from West to East. I was only gazing up for about 15 to 20 seconds, when very quickly, small shadow type object, moved East to West just below the moon. I only saw it for about 4 to 5 seconds. It was the oddest thing. It no lights on it at all. And probably, I would’ve notice it at all if it did not fly across the lower and bright silhouette of the moon. It actually took about 20 seconds for me register in my mind what I actually saw or didn’t see. There is a busy airport several miles away and often I see high airplane traffic. I also use to practically live under a landing line of an airport for years. I know the difference between an airplane at night or something else. This was definitely something else. To summarize, I saw a small dark or shadow type object, moving east to west. It appeared to be high in the sky as a solid object. I could not differentiate whether the object was above or below the thin fast moving clouds. Perhaps, the only reason I saw it, was by the light of the moon. The object was probably only 1/32 the size of the moon. Considering the short period of time, I viewed the object, I can recall it being the shape of a laid-down fat-in-middle cigar with a small fin on top and bottom of the back-end and not a long object.

Knox, IN
The fist and second cigars gradually became too distant to see. Then looking east again, a third cigar appeared. It was also heading west, then suddenly it changed direction in a looping fashion so fast it had a trail of light. It quickly disappeared to the east. All three cigars seemed to be about 3000 feet altitude and a quarter mile north of me and moved too slow to be fixed wing craft. I hesitated to file report until I read other similar reports recently. I am a retired auto mechanic and dont necessarily think these were aliens. Just something I have no explanation for.

Madison, WI
I was leaving work at 3:50 PM on 10/16/2018 just passing the Costco store in Middleton heading east on Eagle Drive. I looked up and observed what I first thought was a passenger jet coming over the city from the Dane County airport. Something seemed a bit off, so I looked again and was unable to distinguish the presence of either wings or a tail section. I pulled over on Eagle Drive next to Costco and observed what looked like a large cylindrical object, about the size of an A320 if not a bit longer. It was white in color and aerodynamically tapered at both ends and had what appeared to be a red vertical stripe that separated the forward going half from the trailing half. There appeared to be no windows or other openings. It was moving in a North Westerly direction and was traveling very slowly. The duration of the sighting was approximately one to one and a half minutes or so. As it was heading off in the distance I saw a smaller aircraft the details of which I could not determine that looked as though it was flying at a higher altitude and moving in an East Southeasterly direction. My background is an Electronics Technician.

Chirico Summit, CA
Camped in our RV at the south entrance to Joshua Tree, I was sitting on the bed sipping coffee looking north on a perfectly clear morning. Way off I noticed a very bright white light coming towards me. It looked like an aircraft landing light which puzzled me due to there not being a landing strip in the area. Watched it come at me for about 3 minutes. As it approached the 2500' hills 1/4 mile from us, I could see it was only 500' or so above them moving slow. Just as it got to the south of the hills, it quickly turned facing east. Got a good look at it. Cigar shaped, maybe 2/3 the diameter of a dirigible and not as long, it was a dull gray color. There were no wings, no tail, no cockpit on the bottom and no windows. Slowly it cruised east for about a minute or so. It then started slowly turning to its left, north. The very moment it reached due north, it shot silently off at amazing speed, disappeared in literally half a second.
