Bozeman, MT

It was a cloudy night. Got home just off of west Babcock in Bozeman. My girlfriend and I got out of car and looked up. I couldn’t believe my eyes. Maybe it was a plane the first few seconds but no. This flashing consistent blue very bright light peering through the clouds. A disk or cigar of such. Something out of a science fiction book. Anyways, it was flashing for who knows how long but I observed it for 6 minutes before it stopped. At one point the flashing was suspended and it turned back on constant. And then continued to flash again for a few minutes. At one point it appeared the light altered into a slight tint of green but I couldn’t tell really. Anyways I contacted my best friend and brother. They ran outside and saw it as well. There were a total of 4 witnesses to my knowledge, but I am sure many of the Bozemanites in town witnessed it as well. If you are reading this tonight from Bozeman, this is most likely the same sighting.

UFO REPORT SEPTEMBER 2018 GREENOUGH MONTANA I WAS A GUEST AT THE ((name deleted)) RANCH WITH A GROUP FROM MY INDUSTRY. I WAS WITH 4 OTHER FRIENDS BEHIND THE LODGE WHICH OVERLOOKS THE BLACKFOOT RIVER. IT WAS A FULL MOON NIGHT AND THE MOON WAS BEHIND US ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BUILDING. I SAW A BRIGHT LIGHT COME INTO VIEW AND AT FIRST EXPECTED IT TO BE A METEORITE WHICH I HAVE SEEN MANY MANY TIMES. AS IT CAME INTO VIEW IN FRONT OF ME I COULD SEE IT WAS CIGAR SHAPED AND BRIGHTLY ILLUMINATED OVER ALL IT'S SURFACE. THERE WAS NO SOUND AT ALL AND NO CONTRAIL OR EXHAUST VISIBLE. AS IT PASSED ME IT WAS ONLY VISIBLE FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS BEFORE IT DISAPPEARED AS A DOT OF LIGHT UP THE BLACKFOOT RIVER VALLEY. THERE WAS NO APPARENT ARC OR DEFLECTION TO IT'S TRAJECTORY. THERE WAS INTERNET SERVICE AT THE RANCH AND I LOGGED ON AND SEARCHED FOR UFO SIGHTINGS IN MONTANA. I CAME UP WITH A DOCTOR IN LIBBY MONTANA WHO HAD SET UP AN AUTOMATIC CAMERA OUTSIDE HIS HOUSE AND AFTER 5 YEARS CAME UP WITH AN IMAGE THAT MATCHED WHAT I SAW THAT NIGHT. HIS PHOTO WAS FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY.

Maryville, TN

At 8 AM I went outside to walk my dogs. I noticed what I thought was a plane, until I realized it had no wings, and was completely silent. It was moving slowly, in a straight line, from SW to NE, toward Knoxville. As soon as I lost sight of it, I saw a second, then a third. Same height, same direction, same flight path. All 3 moved very slowly, and made no sound. They were cigar-shaped, bright white in color, and seemed to be in 2 sections. The leading end was about 2/3 of the total length, with front and back divided by a slightly darker band.

Oregon City, OR

Metallic cigar shaped craft in the sky above downtown Oregon City at 7:45 AM. On way to school Friday morning I just turned off the 99E onto the Railroad Ave. (ally next to tracks) in downtown Oregon City when we noticed two young men outside their car on the right side looking up in the sky. One of the men appeared to have been taking pictures with his phone and was on the other side of the road, as we drove by we looked up, but could not see anything as the buildings were blocking most of our view. Then as we started onto the 7th St. bridge my son says, “There is a silver cigar shaped craft in the sky, it looks like a commercial aircraft with no wings, its big like a 747 and is reflecting the sun, its very shiny” He was looking to the right (North) above the Willamette River. I tried looking up and through my sunroof, but could not see at my angle, plus I was on the narrow 7th St. bridge, so I had to also keep my eyes on the road. After crossing the bridge my son said it had disappeared into the clouds. My son is very into planes and jets and can tell what kind of aircraft is flying overhead down to the specific model of plane and airline, I firmly believe the detailed description he gave me of what he saw. I am hoping that the young men that were looking up saw it as well and were able to get some pictures as I would also like to see this craft. I am also curious if anyone else got a glimpse of this craft, it was a busy morning and there were a few people out walking.

Sedona, AZ

Approaching Sedona from Interstate 17, we observed a flying object that did not behave like a normal aircraft. The object was stationary, then moved up, down farther quickly. It then moved side to side and abruptly departed up and to the right in a very very rapid pace.

I was standing outside talking with a friend in the neighborhood an I just so happen to look up at the sky an I seen a cigar white object flying silently at a High rate of speed about 10,000 feet in the air for about 10 or 15 seconds an then it just vanished. So I ask my friend if he seen what I saw an he said yea I seen it to so I know it was real. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

I was looking at sky westbound and noticed an object in the sky with a tail of white behind it with another cigar shaped object following the first object. I saw them go into the clouds only to disappear and never resurface. The clouds broke up but the objects never reappeared.

Rachel, NV

On the evening of August 29, 2018 at approximately 7:30 p.m., I drove approximately 1.5 miles south on Highway 375 from Rachel, Nevada, to Back Gate Road. This is a dirt road and I drove about 300 feet west. I set up my Nikon D5100 camera on a tripod to photograph the night sky before the moon rose. I photographed toward the south for a while, away from the lights of Rachel. Rachel is a tiny town with very little ambient light. Sometime between 8-8:30 p.m., I turned to photograph the Big Dipper above Rachel. As I was looking in that northwesterly direction, I saw an oblong orange light over the town or possibly over the mountains behind Rachel. It was stationary at first and then began moving slowly east before stopping again. Gradually it descended until I could no longer see it. While it was moving, I turned my camera toward it and took a couple of pictures. My shutter speed was at 15 seconds, ISO of 1600 and aperture of 8. When I looked at the photo on my computer, I saw there were four bright round, horizontal, orange lights above the lights of Rachel. I lightened the photo to make sure they were, in fact, above the town and/or mountains, and that it wasn’t a vehicle or town light. I also cropped the photo in order to enlarge it. I am attaching all three photos: The original, the lightened one, and the enlarged one. The original one, unfortunately, is a bit crooked since I was in a hurry to snap the picture. Straightening it would lose the town lights, so I have left it as is. The lights were not present in the other photo, which I should have kept but did not.

Horn Lake, MS

I got up to get a drink and looked out of a south facing window in my kitchen and saw a cigar shaped white light hovering in the distance. It would rise into the air then slowly get lower then rise again. It never appeared to get any closer or farther away. Only the altitude of the object changed. I watched the object for several minutes before returning to bed.

Hewitt, VT

This was sent to me by a friend of ours. She is a retired school teacher and has high integrity. These are still shots from a wildlife camera that had turned over in their yard and was pointing to the sky. It was very interesting to me and it does not appear to be insects or aircraft that were flying around or over. I am a retired Texas State Trooper and a private pilot. I exchanged e-mail with the source of this report, expressing my opinion that the objects probably were insects. However, I cannot be certain that is what they are. However, the objects do not look like alien craft. PD

Del Mar, CA

The object was pinkish tan in color and moving back and forth very rapidly, then it suddenly stopped, shot out a cloud of something and then changed shape and moved away rapidly.

Venice, FL

At the time of the sighting I was 19 years old, I was up late gaming and I went outside to enjoy the morning air and what I saw in the sky blew my mind. Flying over my house was a cigar shaped ufo that was glowing like molten lava, I watched it for at least 5 minutes stunned, it glided silently over my house towards the gulf of Mexico. It was pretty close to the ground, id say around 2500 feet in the air. I felt very strongly I had to share this encounter finally and have it documented. There's something going on in southwest Florida, at least 4 other people I've known have said they have had an experience as well with seeing a ufo. Thank you !

Farmington, MO

Approximately at 0300 my girlfriend and I stepped outside to watch the meteor shower that we had heard about. When we noticed an orange cigar/triangular shaped object flying east. When we continued to watch the object it suddenly stopped and then vanished right before our eyes. I had never seen anything like it. As we continued to look at the sky we saw more objects as well as a vertical line of flashing lights with an orange as well as a blue craft parallel to the line. Other objects were suspected of being UFOs but we couldn’t determine for sure on these. Once we had seen the crafts I went and told my father who came out, and as he did another orange craft flew directly overhead once again heading east. By this time sunlight was beginning to over power the stars. When sunrise hit no stars could be observable, only 3 crafts, 2 orange, 1 blue. We continued to observe until sunlight overpowered the lights from the crafts and the sunlight masked the objects. This is the first time I had ever seen anything like this. I will continue to observe the night sky more intensely.

Statesboro, GA

Two bright metallic cigar-shaped craft flew silently about 300 to 400 feet over the neighborhood. They were silent. Travelling at an estimated speed of 250-300 mph. No wings, no stabilizers. No cockpit. Just solid gleaming metallic bodies. Estimated length is 50ft. Headed off to the North West.

Spokane, WA

At 12 noon I saw two white cigar shaped craft very close together high in the sky. One flew just ahead of the other, and they were close, about the width of a wing had they been airplanes. They flew west to east across the sky and flashed briefly in the Sun, but I still saw no wings or contrails. 40 minutes later I saw two similar craft fly back east to west in the same configuration. One emitted a thick white contrail and the other did not. They may well have all been airplanes. Now it is 14:24 and there are two contrails twisted like a double helix across the sky ESE to WNW. That's probably just a wind pattern. I don't really think these are extraterrestrial craft, but I'd love some answers. We can't provide answers, if the witness doesn't provide contact information. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous, and provides no contact information. Hoax?? PD

Bismarck double ditch, ND

I was out at double ditch with a friend we were star gazing and noticed two lights running paraell to each other and they flared brightly which caught our attention,and they were moving together and this thing was friggin huge and it moved across the sky and went over our heads and at one point one of the lights like shot off three smaller lights which moved outward and placed themselves in the sky like stars. The two lights that were on opposite ends of this large long object continued moving across the sky toward the east till it faded from sight. The three objects that were ejected stayed stationary in the sky disguised as stars! What a perfect cover to conceal themselves as stars....was our thought.
