Mesa, AZ
After a couple of minutes the light disappeared with no movement or sound. We live near an airport, know the sounds of all planes & helicopters. This light was very still for the duration. Then as stated it was gone within a blink of the eye. This is not the first time I've seen a ufo. There's no question on what we saw. Also we've never seen a light this bright in the sky. I don't believe a plane or helicopter could produce the brightness of this light we saw! The night before we somehow lost power to part of the house leaving clocks blinking & cable box reset to Chan 1. The rest of the house was fine so it's the strangest thing.

Ok, so this was the second time this week.. decided to call my boyfriend over. While I waited for him i kept on video recording this weird light in the sky. At first sight you would think it to be an airplane. But i am a believer and i watch when i see something. so it did not glide through the sky as an airplane would. it was shimmering, bright, round light that was like a white light. this object was fluttering around, side to side and up and down, stay still and it was just bouncing about in smaller motions. By the time my boyfriend got here it was a lot duller in color almost orangish light but it was almost not visible. then my boyfriend and i watched it bounce above the tree line and slowly and surely made it below the trees where it was unseen for about one hour. Then it came back out but at that time it was behind a tree, i think it left shortly after

Miami Beach, FL
At around 11pm I was sitting in my living room. I live in a high-rise in Miami Beach and I have a city view. I was looking through the open sliding glass door, (I was sitting in front of), at the time, when suddenly a bright light appeared from behind a building. At first, I thought it was fireworks, but I quickly realized that this was not the case. It was seemingly in close proximity and flying at about the same height as my apartment. I am on the 5th floor and these things were in my line of view, looking due west, and were visible for a few seconds. The only way I can describe them is that it looked like flying fire. They were 5 or 6 feet across, in my estimation, maybe larger. They appeared solid, not translucent. What I could see was a flat surface which didn't look to have much if any depth. They came from behind buildings that lay in my line of vision and then disappeared from sight the same way, going behind another adjacent building to the north. If I had to guess, I would say that it was about a block or so away! First there was one, then a second appeared, which seemed to split off the other. They moved in a way that could not have been fireworks, swirling around themselves, or interacting for a moment and then speeding off to the north. As these fiery things moved through the air, the tail of the flames undulated in such a way as resembling a flag in the wind. As it did so, small flames were left behind like a trail, but immediately dissipated. Gravity and the laws of physics had no effect. There was an absence of smoke and sound, so I rule out fireworks. There was nothing to indicate to me that there was any human involvement and it was unlike anything I've ever imagined. I was quite shaken after seeing that, somewhat frightened. I don’t know if I can correctly recall the color, but it was bright and looked like fire. I believe it was orange and red but there could have been other colors. I was so astonished and it all happened so quickly, but I got a very good look at them. They, whatever they were, had no apparent shape, other than the appearance of fire. It could not have been a projection. The was nothing in the air space where they appeared for them to be projected on to, and they were above the lower 2 and 3 story buildings in the space where I could clearly see them. I ran out to the balcony, but by then there was no sign of them. I occurred to me that someone else must have seen it. I have lived in this apartment for 5 years and I have gazed in this direction countless times. I have tried to figure out what happened that night, lost sleep over it and have come to the conclusion that either I had a hallucination, or I witnessed something unknown, not to mention extremely bizarre by any standard. Since I am not prone to “seeing things” then I tend to believe the later. It’s very strange circumstances, because the objects, if I can call them that, appeared in a densely populated area with many tourists and people walking around. South Beach is very active at least until 2AM. Before midnight there are scores of people and heavy traffic in my neighborhood. How could I have been the only one to have witnessed it? I was out on my balcony immediately when I saw them, but like I said, they had disappeared by then. I am less than a block from where it seemed to have occurred. I heard no exclamations or commotion. I also did not see any smoke or hear any explosions such as fire works-I definitely would have heard that. This is such an unbelievable occurrence that I have trouble believing it myself. Nevertheless, I saw a pair of self-illuminating fire like objects flying through the air with what seemed to be some form of intelligence. I have no idea what it was, but it was unlike anything in from my imagination. It was but for a few seconds, but I will remember it forever. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Yes, Peter. After review it was Tuesday, the 25th, not Monday the 24th. My wife and I had gone out to dinner that night and I am certain the sighting occurred after that. It was definitely Tuesday night the 25 and not Monday the 24th. Thanks, ((name deleted)) ((END ADDENDUM)) We have amended the date above, in order to reflect a sighting at 23:00 hrs. on Tuesday, April 25, 2017. Please see other reports from Florida for the same time and date. PD

I walked outside and my sight was immediately drawn to a bright orange light moving across the sky. It was a clear night no clouds and all the stars were bright, I at first thought it was an aircraft that had caught fire it was that orange, large and bright. It disappeared after about 2- min after I saw it. I am a 47yo Freelance artist with a degree. I witnessed circular lights over South Mountain in AZ 24 years ago, aside from these two incidents I have never encountered anything I was unable to rationalize. It did not make me nervous or excited, just curious.

My husband and I were outside with our neighbor's, having a bonfire, and the sky to the north of us lit up with bright blue light anomalies. It was completely silent and flashed brightly for roughly 30-45 seconds and then vanished. We all are convinced it was not something easily explainable. I posted online about it and someone else I know in the area said she saw it as well and said it was odd as well.

Hagerstown, MD
I was walking at night between buildings at my boarding school when I saw 2 non-flashing lights in the sky. One was orange and one way blue. They were hovering very close to one another and vapidly went different directions. I could not see where the blue one when since a building was in the way. The orange one did disappear as it was moving away very quickly. They were very high up in the air and went from 0 mph to easily 600 mph in approx. ½ of a second.

Florence, NJ
It was about 12:30 AM last night, March 24th, when I was leaving my friend’s house. Immediately after exiting her front door, I noticed a glowing orange light to the west, in the shape of a sickle. At first I thought nothing of it. There is a church next door, with orange street lights, so that was my first thought, that this object was just a street lamp. But as I walked to the street, to my car, the object was floating far above, away from everything else manmade. It looked somewhat like the moon so I looked on for a second and then hoped in my car and headed home. I turned around and headed west, towards my house and looked up again and the object had transformed before my eyes. It was no longer in the shape of a sickle, but two glowing orange diamonds connected together moving around in the sky. I was in shock, and mesmerized by this object. As I traveled up the block I lost the UFO for a second due to trees overhead. When I regained view of the object, it had ! now taken the form of a straight glowing vertical orange line in the sky. At this point I stopped the car and gazed up in astonishment. Before my eyes the vertical line shrunk in on itself until it was the size of a tiny orange dot and then vanished. There was no sound, and just like that in the blink of an eye the UFO was gone. I did a lot of research this morning to see if any other reports were filed. But have not come across anything yet. Just thought it was my duty to report this phenomenon. I’m incredibly mad that I didn’t video the occurrence but everything happened so fast and I truly was in shock as to what I was seeing before me.

Saw one blue light traveling across the interstate, in a straight line, and another blue light chasing behind it on the same line, and no sound. Then took of into the sky as high as the stars.

I was coming home, and I just randomly see these blinking dots in the sky of different colors. Is it UFO or drones? I also have been seeing these for the past two weeks. What is going on? Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Walker, MI
On my way driving to work, I observed in the sky this light. I assumed it was a shooting star but there were no other stars out. As I watched, the light seemed to veer off its course and vanish, as if it was leaving the atmosphere. It wasn't traveling with the same speed as previous shooting stars I've seen in the past. But faster than any plane I've seen overhead.

Lexington, KY
On Wed., 4/22, at 11:05pm, my 41 year old son (career military) and I were looking at the moon with a telescope. There were scattered lower clouds. While he was looking in the scope, I was looking at the sky. Suddenly, I noticed a bright, white light, about the size of a large star, pass from my right to left in an open, cloud free space in the sky. I quickly got my son’s attention. He looked up and saw it two seconds before it went behind a cloud. I watched to see if it would come out the other side and it did not. It was moving faster than a jet and made no sound. There were no flashing lights. The event lasted about 8 seconds.

Kalamata (Greece) · Greece
Wednesday night around 11pm April 22, 2015, location: Kalamata, Greece, above and lower Kalathi - Taýgetos mountains. I was out on my balcony view facing the mountains when I saw these balls of bright lights moving in many directions, up & down, sideways, bright to dim, colors ranging from white to light red-orange. The distance between my house and the mountains is 3-4 miles apart, and the view of the mountain tops of the Kalathi is about 2,700 ft perhaps +/- (there is a live webcam facing the Kalathi mountains in Kalamata). I thought at first it was fireworks or lanterns, the way they moved and changed size and color no lanterns nor fireworks behaves this way! They moved near the mountain tops in 3 areas, I've seen them at the top of the mountain (many to few), also to the right and left of the mountain at different elevations all at the same time, appearing & disappearing. I watch for 2 1/2 hours until I was tired and most had faded away. During this time I had telephoned my girlfriend and she also witness this on her balcony as well. Later my boyfriend can home to view some activity before they all faded away.

West Point, MS
I stepped outside at 8:48 PM, Central Time Zone, to have a smoke. It was a clear night and the stars were bright and beautiful. While gazing up at the stars, I noticed a light moving across the sky at an amazing speed. It was a white light, as bright as the brightest star in the sky, and it was moving in a North/North-Easterly direction, in a straight line. It appeared to be at a very high altitude, and it was moving at least 3 times faster than any jet airplane I have ever witnessed. It took the light about one and a half minutes to move from the South horizon to the North Horizon. It was not a shooting star. It made no sound. An hour later, at exactly 9:48 PM on the same evening, I witnessed the same kind of light moving along the same path and at the same speed. I quickly pulled out my phone to try to get a video of the event. However, as soon as I began recording, the light began to dim and disappear. The entire recording only lasts 6 seconds, but the object can be seen moving away from a stars position before it disappears.

Kelseyville, CA
A bright light hovered about 4,000 feet above Mt Konocti, and was engaged by at least two military fighter jets. The dog fight that ensued, lasted for about fifteen minutes. From my vantage point it appeared that at least one, may both fighter jets were shot down. Many people took pictures and had a better view of the craft. UFO's fly around this mountain all the time. I usually take it with a grain of salt, but this is the fist time I saw one shoot down one of our jets. Now it's personal. We have spoken via telephone with the witness, and encouraged him to contact the press, in search of other witnesses to the alleged event, in order to corroborate the report above. We would like to see more evidence, before we can conclude that a U. S. military jet fighter was, in fact, downed by a flying saucer. PD

South Burlington, VT
Driving to work on Interstate-89 South Bound on the Rutland/Shelburne Rd Exit. A few cars were in front of me, but I was driving slower so they disappeared over the hill to the point where it was completely dark behind and in front of me. The brightest blue light I have ever seen appeared out of thin air, fairly high in the sky. It was a cloudy night and you could not really see any stars so this big blue ball of light stuck out. Then it shot really fast to the left (my left) abruptly stopped, then fell straight down and disappeared. It moved so fast in a 90 degree manner that it looked like it had a tail but it was just the light moving so fast that there’s no way it could have been a plane or a shooting star. I worked at the Burlington Airport for over 3 years; no way I can explain what I saw. Come forward if you saw it, too. It’s almost surreal.

Blythe, GA
I was driving south towards Blythe, Ga, on IH 1. A sudden bright light appeared slowly and at first it seemed like a huge shooting star but it ceased to increase in size. About 2-3 seconds after, one other light appeared to the left of the initial light, of the same intensity as the first, followed by the last light, again, to the left of the others; creating an array of three lights. The tint of the lights was of a white-blue bright. Right after they appear, they disappeared leaving a glittery effect/trail. I was in plain shock. Other details, weather conditions: very clear and visiability was high.

I was inside my apt when my sister-in-law called me outside cause she seen lights I got my phone camera and recorded blue, red, and green light flashing, started off slow and then fast like lightning. Video clip indicates diffuse, flashing light, which cycles from blue, to red, and perhaps to green. We do not know whether the display is related to UFO activity. PD

It then proceed to move slowly south. I told much husband tonight and he said, "Well, if it's a start, it will there tonight." And it's not.

Johnson City, NY
Three lights crossed the sky at a high speed, one after another, flying very low below the clouds from south to north. The first was very distinctly blue and appeared to be circular in shape. It was followed a few seconds after by a green light traveling at a similar high speed and low altitude, it's path curving slightly to follow the first. About 20 seconds after, the first two lights were followed by a third of indistinguishable color, flying at a similar speed but slightly higher altitude. Witnesses include myself and my two roommates, out for a cigarette at around 9:30 pm. I like to keep an eye on the sky, but I've never once seen anything strange like this. Because the third light traveled at a higher altitude, it was a more conventional appearance... But none of us can explain the appearance of the first two lights in particular. It's difficult to draw an immediate conclusion, but the third seemed to be another type of flying object pursuing the first! two lights.
