San Antonio, TX
After exiting Zarzamora St, off of 410 Connally loop, we were on the access road traveling North bound, we saw a white light go over us and disappear. It was traveling horizontally. The white light went directly down the middle of our front windshield and passed us. It was about the speed of a helicopter, which at first glance we that it was. But it didn't have a red light or other lights, it was just a white light. We were going about 50 mph. It disappeared after about 3 seconds. I was in passenger side and saw it and thought my mind or eyes were playing tricks on me. But told me daughter and she said giggled that she thought the same too and saw same thing. I keep telling myself maybe it was a shooting star but I don't remember a trail after it. Also it didn't seem like it was falling down from the sky. It was going horizontally directly over us. It didn't look like a floating lantern because those are usually a yellowish orangey color.

On 11 20 22 about 620pm I was standing out back of my apartment building and out of nowhere I saw this string of lights moving across the sky a line of vertical lights slightly slanted and above it an shorted of horizontal light I ran up the sidewalk and towards the front of my apartment building but it was moving to fast. I seen it so perfectly clear and now I'm convinced that we are not alone.

NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA
Object appeared to hover at a high altitude slightly to the east of us. Maybe 5 to 8 miles. Appeared very small to the naked eye and I lost it. Why I’m contacting you is that 4 or 5 minutes later, the same, or a similar object appeared in the opposite part of the sky, to the west. Slightly lower altitude than previously. Moving slowly and deliberately to the east, then to the north, increasing in altitude, getting smaller to the naked eye. I attribute the brightness of the object to its reflecting the sun. The brightness was inconsistent, making it appear that the object was flashing somewhat. This attribute of this sighting makes me think that the object was reflective on only one side or portion of it. I have never seen nor reported a UFO before, but this sighting was unique enough that it left me very curious and if there’s any way to more about what this is, I’d be interested to know more. I have seen satellites and this did not behave like a satellite. An astronomy app confirmed that there were no planets in our sight line. It felt way too high in altitude to be a helicopter or a drone. If it was some form of weather balloon, there would have to have been two of them, because one balloon could not have traversed that distance in such a short period of time. The attached photo is statistically close to worthless but I am including it in any case

Sun city, AZ
I was walking a friend of mines dog, which is not uncommon for me to do. It wasn’t too late at night, for me at least, for Sun City maybe. It’s a 55+ retirement community. As I was walking, though, I noticed that things just seemed weird that night. It was eerily, eerily quiet. I mean, there was no one outside. I didn’t see any cars, there were no planes. Typically there are at least jets occasionally going to Luke Air Force Base. Nothing, it was just so still and quiet; other than a little bit of a breeze. Even my friends dog was acting strangely. I usually take both of my friends dogs, but the one dog refused to go. He didn’t want to go, I’ve never had that happen. They always both love to go. As we were walking, I noticed the dog wasn’t pulling on the leash and wanting to go ahead like he usually would. He stayed right next to me the whole time, to where I was almost tripping over him as I’m walking. I always like to look at the stars and use my app to try and identify different stars and things and as I look up, I saw this bright, bright light moving across the sky. As I stopped to look at it, I got my phone out because I knew this was no satellite or Star. I figured it was a planet or something much brighter. I was going to try and identify it with the night sky app. I couldn’t find anything on my phones Star chart that would explain this light and as i’m looking at it, then back at my phone, it stops moving. I got a strange feeling and felt like it had stopped and was looking at me. It was like it knew I saw it and it saw me. And after it stopped, I started recording on my phone because I’m like thinking no one‘s gonna believe me. This is crazy. It’s hard to capture in the video, but at the time seeing it live was so different. It was changing colors rapidly and it almost looked like it was pulsating or had maybe an electric charge. It looked like what id imagine a giant electron or particle or some thing would look. It seemed very energetic and changing colors and spinning. Then there were other smaller lights that were kind of passing in the background and I’m not sure if they were satellites or what they were but they were smaller than this light and appeared to move with it or toward it. Then it appeared to start moving again, and at one point in the video, it kind of stops and instead of changing colors rapidly it stops and it becomes very very bright and then dims down a little bit and then starts changing colors again. It was very strange. Then it accelerated and took off and started moving more quickly; more like how it was moving in the beginning when I first saw it. I took a short video at first because almost as soon as I started recording I had to stop because I thought something was wrong with my phone, the video was coming out strange, in that the sky seemed to be moving separate from the background house in video. So I stopped and started another longer video but I noticed the same weird effects in the video. I don’t know how else to describe it but that it seemed that the sky was moving separate from the ground where I was recording. Overall, it was a very strange night and I just remember the quite. No bugs, no cars, nothing. The quite was so noticeable because it’s usually constant background noise in the city where I live. Always background cars, planes, bugs, coyotes, owls etc. not this night though.

Object in sky at night which appeared to be flashing red and possibly green or blue. It was still and hovering for about 10-15 minutes. I then check on it again and it moved to a different location and kept hovering.

I live at the Avalon bay communities on the second floor my living room window faces, the west. About 831 I walked to my window to look outside. When I looked to my left, I noticed the brightest light I ever seen in my life. different from any EV light, airplane light or any star or any man-made light. It was 15 feet above overLake emergency clinic silently, hovering and with the blink of the eye. It jetted off to the west faster than anything ever seen in my life , with not even a SOUND!! it’s a fuzzy very, very, very bright and VERY VERY SMART!

Lights were red and dispersed into many lights moving side to side in a line over the cliff. There was a sound too. Like a metallic clicking or tapping.

While sitting out by the fire just after 8PM, I looked up to see two glowing orange lights flying over our house. There were three of us who saw them and we all agreed that they were distinctly orange in color. They appeared to be flying fairly low and very quickly. The first ones didn't seem to blink or flicker. There were no aerial navigation lights either red or green or white. They did not bob or weave. There was no noise associated with them. There were airplanes flying in other directions and we could hear noise from those but not from these objects. The first two flew parallel to one another and then seemed to curve slightly toward the south. They were coming from the the west and flying towards the east. We then looked up and coming over the crest of the house were three more of these flying lights. They were flying roughly in a triangle and again they were glowing orange with a steady light. As they disappeared behind the pine tree boughs (which in the attached video causes them to look like they're flickering out,) another one came over the house. Jupiter was visible, and bright, but these objects seemed to be very orange; and had a deliberate, swift movement on a trajectory. They did not float or drift. When we saw the first two lights, I didn't have the presence of mind to video. But when the second group of three came over I did have the presence of mind to pick up my phone. I did not zoom in however. When the lights seem to flicker that is them going behind the branches of the pine tree. And my phone is moving around as I try to track them in this video.

My freind and I were heading to Vegas late night. We first spotted a light sitting still in the sky. Then a second light joined and it stood still. Then the second light went left ( we were driven towards Vegas) and it zig zagged in w formation. The unit that was standing still just disappeared. It was so bizarre. The one that was moving kept going left and it eventually vanished. By the time we got off the freeway it was to late. We were perplexed.

A large slow moving comet like object, long but with dark shadowy structure on the leading edge and throughout the forward area. Moved in a constant horizontal plane- not falling. I have photos. Traveling east to west.

As witness was walking east down 17th St in Tacoma two blocks near Union Ave, witnessed a ball of light, seemingly high in the atmosphere drop straight down - not like a meteorite entering the atmosphere. The light dropped straight down and disappeared as it descended low.

Brooklyn, NY
Looked out of balcony door and saw a bright Orange/yellow light or aura in the sky. I live high up in NYC and have a pretty clear view of Brooklyn/Manhattan and what I believe is part of Queens. This light was not flashing or moving like the other lights were, which allowed me to identify the other lights as planes. It remained in the same spot. It would go bright, dim, then disappear. I saw this happen two more times before it fully disappeared and I caught the final one in video. I would appreciate any update as to what it actually was.

Registered Nurse at facility noted 2 lights moving in circle above clouds. Seen by 3 other people. Lights almost looked they were coming from a lighthouse but there was no source. Then lights began moving in same circle but closer together. Went from 8 second intervals to 4.

The object came from the opposite direction than our plane was flying stabilizes beside our airplane and starts to change directions up and down, north south like a drone. Our plane was flying at cruse speed and altitude about 40-50 min after taking off from JFK heading south to Brazil.

Beeville, TX
I live in Bee county in S.Texas most of my life. I built a home out in the country 18 yrs ago. Since then I’ve seen these light that show up randomly over the years. Sometimes seen with family and friends, or just me alone. The very first time was with my cousin out on atvs at night in 2004 around 10:30pm. We stopped by my house for a break by the pond. Then I noticed a white light getting bright from the SW sky. My cousin was facing away from it as I was noticing it’s movement. I told him to turn and look what I was seeing. He then turned at the moment it started to shift shape from a bright white light into a red light. He said it was an airplane coming closer to us, as it usually dose flying to an airport at a near by city. Suddenly the light stopped at a distance, and splits into three red lights. One to the left of the center light, then another to the right of the center light. Both lights each side of the center began to dance around. It was amazing! My cousin was not enthused of the miracle. He had an answer for everything that was going on. Then just as it appeared, the lights came together as one. Then the main light ejected the lights from the left side of it towards the south as it followed behind. Disappeared in less then a second, literally. Had no idea what it was. Since then I was obsessed. Over the years I spent my life time outside the same time around 10:30 pm hoping they come back. Yes, they sure did. For the next 18 years they would appear at random nights. I’d say once to twice a year sometimes 3. Mostly my kids would see the bright light and then vanish. My cousin was the only one to see them dance. Until this year when the unexpected happened. My wife knew about the miracles that I’ve been seeing and the stories told. Till one day this year in March 2022 we were coming back home from a doctor’s appointment in San Antonio, two hours away. As we getting closer to home my wife, and I were talking, listening to music. I then noticed out the window on my wife’s side a bright light. I told my wife to look I think it’s the light. As she turned to see, it disappeared. I told her it was the light. How crazy it was for me to see it out here. I asked out loud to show its self so my wife can see. Then it appeared again, and I told my wife “look, it’s back”! She turned and finally seen what I had been seeing over the years. It seemed to follow us as we were driving, and then it did the unusual. It split up in three. I quickly pulled over to the side of the highway. Just as I did it came back together and vanished. My wife didn’t know what to think of it. I told her “you finally saw the lights”! I was so happy, and scared at the same time. I realized we were not at home. These light appeared to us away from home. Why? Since then the lights appeared four times this year at home. Most recently was last week November 11, 2022. The most it shown it self, why? I don’t know what to think of it, but claim it as a miracle. Strange, I’ve had intuitions even predictions over the years. Some good, and some bad. I even feel when the lights come back and for me to step outside to watch. I notified MUFON a few years ago but nothing ever happened out of it. Is this dangerous for my family and me, Should we be concerned?

Ring was not working (alerting) in the morning so we looked at video throughout the night and found the images.

Fayetteville, TN
Spotted an erratically moving, high altitude light about the size and brightness of a dim star. The light would move rapidly in a linear fashion and sometimes in a circular shape. Rapid accelerations, stops, and turns. All while staying roughly in the same location. The light looked very far away and would brighten and dim as it moved. I watched for a half hour or so, and then I went inside.

I looked outside my window and saw circular object hovering in the distance. When I zoomed in on my camera, it was bright and flickering. You can see planes flying by but this object stayed in one spot and did not move. Towards the end of the video, I end up losing it in my recording.

Almost nightly, we see a ball of light, sometimes flashing white, green, and red, sometimes larger and closer to the ground, appearing like a bright white light. It's over farm ground, mostly wheat fields and blue grass. It moves accross the sky and seems to disappear/cut the lights at will. It does this when an airplane is crossing it's same area. I've watched that happen multiple times. It's below the clouds. It can move in any direction. I have seen up to three of these in the same sky area at once. It's usually just one though. I've taken poor quality cell phone video of it. I've also tried to take video when it's really moving around and had it disappear from sight before I can get my video rolling. We joke that it must just be the government or an Amazon drone. However, I think it's too big to be a drone. I watch it nightly from our residence. It's almost always off to the west. I've never seen it while the sun's been up.
