Little Rock, AR
As I drove on the I-30, it was still light, getting to dusk. The orange sunset as the background around my 2:30 position. And I started noticing streams of light falling from the sky. It was beautiful just like the movies, strange shape lights, orange, I thought meteors, but having read this, it could not be. Different directions. I counted around 12 at one time small to very large.

Cape Coral, FL
It was nighttime and I was in my car going 25 mph, when I saw a green streak of light shoot through the sky in SW Cape Coral. It illuminated the clouds around it and it happened too fast for it to have been a drone, firework, or plane. It couldn't have been a shooting star either as it was a bright circular green ball that was no higher than the mesosphere as it, once again, illuminated the clouds around it. It did not leave a trail behind it.

Sugar Land, TX
I was walking my dogs near Constellation Field around 5:30 in the morning. It was dark outside and my dog when a series of strange events happened with possible missing time. I let my dogs off their leashes and we noticed a rabbit run directly into the stadium. my dogs were frozen as they noticed a husky like dog chase after it. My dogs took off after this dog, which caused me to frantically chase after them in full sprit. A next thing I know, my dogs are running towards me. I put them back on leashes and look to my left and notice a human figure and the dog walk under a bridge. As soon as the two pass my line of sight, out of breath, I look up and notice a ball of light hover above the bridge and shoot straight up silently. The ball of light had a tail of light behind as it went straight up. I had never seen anything like it before or any other ufo video to compare it too. The object would have been either close to or right above a chemical storage facility! called Nalco Champion. I recently saw an article that stated that less than one in ten sightings are reported, so I decided to report my sighting.

Grove City, OH
I got my cell phone and turned on the video camera then about 45 seconds into the video the same lights appeared again farther off to the west about the same altitude and for about the same duration. I got off the highway at Georgesville rd and parked in a parking lot and got out waiting for about 5 minutes for another sighting. But with no luck. So I got back in my truck and travelled south on Holt Rd. and pulled into my neighborhood, stopped at the stop sign facing west and saw the exact same lights do the same thing again, but this time much closer. At this point I realized the lights were just south of Bolton Field Airport, but very high in the sky. I went out onto my porch several times looking west and about 15 minutes from the last sighting me and the woman that lives with me saw a group of 3 to four tiny flickering lights that appeared to be travelling north and over the Bolton Field Airport. My line of sight was from my back porch facing west and the lights appeared just above my neighbors house that is about 60 feet behind mine roof line. We watched them for about 6 or 8 seconds before we lost sight. They were flickering and travelling very slowly. We got into the car and left and took a country ride to see if we saw the lights again, with no luck. But after returning home I went back to the porch and a little higher in the sky in the same general area I looked at the stars and saw a white light and htne if lowly went out. I watched and witnessed this light lower itself in the sky and repeated to light up about every 6 or 8 seconds it seemed several times before it stopped. We have seen numerous strange lights in the past few years around Columbus including a very large red triangle ufo that lit up through the clouds over the south end of Hilliard, Ohio, in the evening of February of 2016 that lit up twice for about a second or two, but was massive, probably being a mile or so away and hundreds of yards wide. As well as two separate instances on opposite sides of the city in the distant southern skies were we saw a short string of large orange fiery lights, 5 or 6 fire orange colored lights lighting up at the same time that were very clos to being linked to each other like a small lego, then slowly dissipated within a few seconds, then light up another 1 to two times and disappear. The first time I saw these lights there was another small light off to the side in the distance light up when these light starting going out. I was in Reynoldsburg, OH in November 2016 facing south on this first occasions. And in Kouisville, OH, southwest of Columbus,! Ohio in February 2017 the second time. On the second occasion we parked and filmed a 14 minute video (but didnt capture those big orange lights ) which we submitted to MUFON that contained several minutes of dozens of sporadic red and white lights spread across portions of the sky flickering. We later realized we also captured a very clear image of bright white UFO with what appeared to have a small spout shaped extension extending off to the right and downward to the bottom right corner of it. Though the camera remained steady focused on a triangle of three bright white stars, this ufo looking object clearly travels up the left side of the screen from bottom to top for about 4 seconds .

They eventually fell behind the tree line so I couldn't see them anymore. All 5 were a steady orange light, not bright enough to be flairs and always in a perfectly straight line.

Escondido, CA
Seen on 10.21.18 in northeastern part of Escondido. Object looked like a fireball, traveling north. At first I thought it was a plane on fire that was going to crash. Then I thought it was a meteor and we'd get to see it burn itself out. It was heading at high speed towards where we were standing, I was scared it was going to crash and cause damage. But then it STOPPED. It stayed in the same place for a few seconds. Then it started going higher, just going straight up, and we watched it get smaller until it looked like a star, except for a reddish-orange glow. Then it blinked out. I stared at where it was for a second or 2, it blinked back on, got brighter, blinked a few more times then was gone. My friend was standing next to me when I saw this, I alerted him to it while it was still traveling at high speed. He was able to get some of it on video, but only after it had stopped.

Claremont, CA
I was driving with my girlfriend down Foothill Blvd in Claremont, California. We saw 3 fire balls in the sky maneuvering far in the distance. From how far they looked from our position, these aircrafts must have been extremely quick. They would hover in place, then move left/right extremely quickly considering their distance from us. I did not capture video of this sight but I did happen to find someone else's video coverage of the incident that I will post a link of at the end of this description. The fireballs had a light trail that followed them when maneuvering and disappeared behind them. They went side to side and eventually maneuvered down to the Earth's surface I assume. Please see the link attached. Below is an extremely similar event with the same fire balls but captured in Miami, Florida. Opposite side of the country on the SAME NIGHT. Please note, I only witnessed the occurrence in the FIRST link's video. https://twitter.com/xklsvsolis/status/1054072651365330944?s=21 https://twitter.com/alisboundglobal/status/1055336313589825536?s=21

Saint Augustine, FL
Object was seen moving to the south east at approximately 500-1000ft. Looked like a ball of fire the size of a small car, but was completely silent. The object came into view over the top of the house and was visible for about 1.5 min. Video was taken of the object. Two other witnesses were present at the time of sighting. The sighting ended when the object seemed to disappear about a mile from where it first came into view.

Marina del Rey, CA
Oct 10, 2018. A large orange fireball appeared about 12 miles off the coast of marina del rey. Time was 9pm to 11pm. From the video, the fireball appears to be about 200 feet above the ocean, based from the reflection onto the ocean. The event was recorded with a 4K 60 fps and with a 320 optical zoom. This video was posted on ‘’you tube’’ at Bci1eyNKggw. I live at the beach. This was the first fireball I have seen in 25 years.

facing North-North East towards Reno Nevada, clear night, single blue fireball with tail, had a halo but might just be clouds. There was a planet to the upper left, possibly Venus. We suspect witness was looking south, watching a missile launch. PD

Exeter, NH
First red orb spotted at 21:30, 10/06/2018 due south, rising at a speed about twice that of an air craft. Second orb became visible about a minute later. Both orbs remained visible as they flew directly overhead, heading north and disappeared into the north horizon. No sound was noticeable and remained in view 4-5 minutes. Neither of the original two had much of a trail, but one had visible break off like a flare that burned up within a second or two. Less than a minute after the first two disappeared, the third and the fourth came into view from the same southern location. One was larger than the first ones and had a noticeable tail to it. These two also released items that quickly burned up. There was complete overcast with no visible stars or a moon, so these were very low in our atmosphere. In total, there were 8 and they spread out into longer intervals between. Eventually only one in view at a time. The whole event lasted about 40 minutes. Some never made it to the far horizon, but at least 3/4 of the way. The ones that didn’t flickered out without any debris. There were four of us that witnessed this and none of us have seen anything like it. Possible sky lanterns??? PD
