Hood River, OR
We saw two large, long, white objects flying formation from west to east over the Columbia River Gorge. They didn’t appear to have wings - they were just very long. We are a military family and are familiar with aircraft. These objects were two large to be any aircraft we know of - especially at the height they were at. Commercial aircraft don’t fly formation. The two objects appeared to stop twice mid air. After the second stop the two objects appeared to merge then slowly moved sideways blending into the thunder clouds to the north of the river - disappearing from sight. Both myself and my passenger looked at each other and wanted to know if the other saw what just happened.

Boise, ID
I looked out the window toward the east, toward the Boise foothills, there were two glittery white lights doing a zigzag pattern in the sky. They were very high up and moving fast. I kept watching them and they started to get lower in the sky. As they came down they were large, maybe 20 feet around and moved off toward the foothills to the east, they finally disappeared. I kept watching for them to come back when a large cigar shaped ship appeared near the same foothills going west to east, the ship was long, maybe 20 feet around and glittery white. I watched it for about one minute and it vanished out over the foothills. I thought I would look out the bedroom window that faces south and saw two pale orange lights above a tree in our neighbors backyard close to our fence. These lights were about 12" in diameter and 20 to 25 feet high and going in and out of the heavily leafed trees. These lights each had two pale white beams of light, and it looked like they were searching for something. I quietly opened the window and there was no noise from these lights/small ships at all, they were totally quiet. I started to close the window and the lights froze, like I had been spotted.This scared me a little, so after closing the window and blinds, I opened one single blind just a little to watch them, and they had started moving again, with no sound whatsoever. Then the light vanished into the trees.

Hamilton, MT
I was about 19 or 20 when this happened so it was about five years ago, so around 2018. Me and two of my friends were hiking up softrock in Hamilton MT and we looked up and noticed a cigar (long oval) shaped craft with an shiny reflective chrome like exterior. I and I'm assuming my friends immediately got an interview overwhelming sense of anxiety and dread I shook it off and immediately began trying to wave it down my friend at the time said my name and motioned me to stop I disregarded him and continued trying to signal it. I started trying to talk to it by projecting my thoughts projecting images and asking it to take me off of this rock. It started zipping around the sky about halfway through me attempting this leaving behind trails of bright redish orange and yellow we stayed there and watched it for about an hour before we decided to leave. My friends dropped me off at my house Wich at the time was in the middle of town(south 8th st Hamilton MT) I moseyed around the house for probably 30 minutes before I let my dog out and looked up and there it was dancing around in the sky I waved again and it changed it's pattern seemingly acknowledging my wave. I gave it a bow and went back inside and was immediately overwhelmed by that familiar sense of anxiety of the unknown I attempted to calm myself eventually hyping myself up by saying this is what I asked for. I took a deep breath and stepped back outside to see if it finally left. It did not. I stepped back inside again and came to the understandable conclusion that tonight is going to be an all nighter... As soon as the thought crossed my mind I started feeling sick (like when you stand in front of a microwave for too long)but the fear was gone almost like they switched off my emotions. I lied down on my living room couch. As soon as I relaxed I was hit by a golden beam that covered myself the sofa and most of the surrounding floor and I felt a presence appear on either side of me, the fear returned and I tried a left hook on the being on that side of my person. As soon as I balled my fist and started swinging the beam intensified forcing my arms and legs into a fetal position then a second beam smaller beam struck my head I immediately started seeing red symbols on a black background, the symbols changed slowly at first picking up speed the more I tried to focus the more it hurt seemingly gaining momentum until finally it felt like they were trying to shove a text book into my skull. I've tried to write it off as a dream but I cannot because I it wasn't a dream and I'll never be able to forget that pain I felt it was almost non physical.. my apologies for the book I've written here but I needed to share it, I was scared to tell anyone about this mostly because it sounds crazy and fear of men in suits coming to get me but at this point my fear of never knowing what they have shown me far outweighs the fear of the government.

Tampa, FL
On 7/21/18 20:59, I observed a very large red glowing cigar shaped light, or object, fly from south to north over Tampa, Florida. It was quite eerie, as it was a very unusual and intense color of red for it to be a jet aircraft on a landing approach to either Tampa International Airport or nearby MacDill AFB illuminating a bunch of clouds with its landing lights. I have seen many normal aircraft fly through the clouds but never a color or shape like this. The object appeared as a red glowing cigar shape for about 7 seconds, and then instantly changed shape to a much smaller but very intense bright white circular shaped object or light as it continued to fly in a northerly direction for about another 30 seconds. I could see that the object had changed to a pulsing reddish orange glow as it flew away. I never observed any typical red or green aircraft navigation strobe lights. I was able to get several pictures of it from my cell phone, but unfortunately, not quickly enough to capture an image in the bright red cigar shape portion of the sighting. There was never any sound of aircraft engines and there were no NASA rocket launches that evening at Cape Kennedy. The entire sighting was about 45 seconds. I have worked for military aerospace contractors for 15 years and consider myself well read on aircraft.

I thought it was a plane due to alot passing but upon further watching, it came from the east and had what looked like short clouds behind it, then it when south as in south towards like it was headed to the land. It went in a cloud for a minute. Then it preceded to go down more into another cloud and it disappeared. It was white, long shaped, the front and and were round and when I say long shape it wasn't flying like a plane, literally the long ends where up and down facing sky and earth not straight away as a plane does.

Fort Collins, CO
My wife and I were on a walk on the evening of 7/11/18 at 8:15-8:45 when my wife noticed a round, extremely bright white object hovering at approximately 30-40 degrees above the northern horizon of Fort Collins, CO. It was brighter than any star/planet that appears at that time of day. It moved extremely slowly, if at all, during our observation, which lasted approx. 15 minutes. The surface appeared to be reflecting the sun's light but was not giving off any light of its own. The object did not blink or twinkle. The object was also observed by family members that live 9 miles north of Ft. Collins.

From our front yard in Meridian my wife and I saw a white object overhead that we thought was an airplane. Something looked odd about it so I grabbed some binoculars and looked. The front third was red and the back was white with the two colors divided by a definite line. It had a rudder but no tail. It had a long white something sticking out of the top near the front on about a 45 degree angle forward. I thought it might be a refueling tube, but it was too big around. It had no wings or tail, No markings, just red and white. No noise. Then it just disappeared. It didn't fall or speed off, it just vanished. The sun had just set but was obviously shining on this object. It flew from south to north.

Something has been appearing in the night sky between 9-10 pm, nightly less than a month. It is stationary for awhile, then moves and becomes stationary again for awhile. It seems to loop around full circle. Could it be a Satellite? (It's positioned near Willow Grove Naval.) It doesn't appear to be a star (too big, too bright, too close, and shaped oblong or cigar shape.)

Driving on the parkway South around mile marker 60, I see a bright diamond shaped green light approach the parkway from the left tree-line. The light gradually gets bigger and I notice there is a small red circular light behind it. Gradually it becomes clear I am looking at some sort of cigar shaped craft with the green light in the front and the red light in the back. It wasn't as big as a commercial aircraft, but not small either, maybe a few cars long (it could not cover the length of the 3 lanes on the parkway). It floated over the parkway until it reached the tree line to my right, and then made a graceful approximately 180 degree turn with the front of the craft as the pivot point then proceeded to return to the other side of the parkway. At this point, I had slowed down (as did the car next to me) to get a better look and realized the craft had no wings and, as far as I could tell, was silent (I rolled down my window). It ended up flying right over my car, at which point I could tell that it had a large upper and small lower fin on the backside that were blockier than the average airplane (nearly the same width as the cigar shaped base). In addition, as it reached the tree line to my left again I looked back out my driver's side window and noticed it seemed to have a rectangular chunk missing from the top half of the craft around the midpoint. Overall, the craft seemed to be composed of very strange edges. The missing chunk from the middle of the craft had very precise geometric edges, as did the blocky "tail fins". They were not really smoothed out in any way. I could not accurately see the front of the craft because the bright green diamond light obscured it. When I got home I started to doubt myself as I drew the object I thought I had seen since it kind of resembled a plane, just without wings, blockier in design, and a chunk missing in the middle. In addition, when I looked up the area on Google maps, I noticed that Eagle's nest airport was very close by. So there is a mild possibility my sleepiness during a late night drive may have hampered my ability to observe accurately.

Pleasanton, TX
My friends,A man and his wife were headed home in their suv ,on a country road,, north of Pleasanton tx.The female saw a grey and elongated (cigar shaped) object low ,above the tree tree line out of the passenger closed window. immediately the suv was shaken enough that her husband exclaimed. “Woah what was that” His wife explained that a object (ufo?) flew over and rocked the suv enough that her husband wondered what shook the vehicle. She didn’t mention any sound. They were not really afraid or upset, and I was told by the female what she saw. The husband driving only exclaimed that it happened, ,and the vehicle was affected. He was not really concerned and was very casual about the happening.. The road was asphalt and level. The husband when asked,he acknowledge that his vehicle was affected and he has to correct the direction the car was travelling

One UFO moving NNE over ocean high altitude steady fast speed like a plane, but object was camouflage with the sky. No light reflection like a normal white plane. Saw cigar like shape with no wings. Again, transparent with sky/cloud color. A couple minutes later two fighter jets came from the west and circled back out over ocean.

3 friends and I were driving home from the store at around 8pm on a summer night. The moon was coming up and I was watching it through the window of the car. I saw a bright light next to it that would grow in size and flash different colors. I pointed it out to the rest of my friends and they were all immediately intrigued. Once we arrived home we stood outside and watched as more formed in the sky. One of my friends was uninterested and went in the house to begin cooking dinner for the rest of us. We watched for another hour or so and then a large cigar shaped spacecraft came flying from across the street. It was low in the sky. It flew towards us and right above our heads for and stoped for a seconds. It had windows and white and red lights all across it. We watched as it was right above us now. then it took off so fast and climbed higher in the sky. The craft was dead silent but then a rumbling sound began. From across the street (the direction the craft ! came from) a military jet flew past us and after the craft that was still rising. We watched them get higher in the sky and then the jet turned around and flew back. It was dark now but we watched this bright flashing light move around the sky. It seemed to have no direction and would move up and down for seemingly no reason. One of my friends went in around 30 minutes later so there was only 2 of us left. 10 minutes later the entire sky turned white like lightning and it lasted for a split second. When to sky turned to its normal color again all the stars and the craft were no longer visible

It was stationary, but then it shot off to the East (same direction I was traveling) and flew in to a cloud and did not come out the other side which did not make since because at the rate it was traveling it should have appeared on the other side of the cloud in about 3 second after entering. I watched the cloud for some time, until it became impossible for me to turn my head back in that direction any longer. The event only lasted around 8 to 10 seconds.

Witnesses went to his local town beach which is right on buzzards Bay with a friend. It was a very clear beautiful day as you can see clear across the bay which is more than a mile to the other side which is Cape Cod. As he was scanning the shoreline across the bay just looking at the sites he noticed a huge, blimp like object, gray with no colors, just hovering in the distance over the land. It appeared to be gigantic compared to houses on the ground beneath it, it almost could have been a mile long. It slowly moved back and forth for a couple minutes as he was still trying to figure out if he was watching some gigantic blimp or something and then it looked like it began to get smaller. But then he realized it was just turning left about 90 degrees facing down the ocean on the other side and at that moment he realized it wasn't a giant flying saucer but a giant cigar shaped aircraft of some sort. Then it got smaller as it went away from them towards the Atl! antic Ocean and quite fast indicating it was moving at a pretty good clip. There were no other witnesses on the beach that day. They literally left after the incident and they tryed to find out if there was any kind of air show that day since Otis Air Force Base was right in that vicinity. (CVMS)

I was oiling the clasp on my dog run wire when I looked up to the Southwest Skies and saw three white lights in a row moving from south to North. The three lights flashed on and off 3 times when I started yelling for someone to come out the house to take a look. My sister-in-law Beth came out to the porch and looked exactly where I told her to look and she saw the last two times that the three lights Flash and then she noticed just above the route the other lights were on three other lights flashed twice. It looked to be two different crafts traveling in the same direction south to North. Each craft only had three white lights that blink off and on and disappeared after the fifth Flash. They weren't marker lights like on an airplane they were white not red and green. After the fifth Flash they disappeared and did not continue across the sky.
