Twin City, GA
We were driving home from dinner. myself, my husband, and my two young sons. We were less than a mile from our home when we came to an opening over a field, and we saw 6 bright lights just over the field, but still knew that it was on the other side of the highway. They were in a horizontal line. The lights alternated blinking, however it was clear that there were 2 sets of 3 lights. They were bright, round and yellow. Each light would slowly fade in and out and they each did it at different times. We stopped the car to try to figure out exactly what we were looking at. As we did, the 3 lights on the right side each took a turn lighting up seperately, only to never re-light. Then the one on the left followed suit. The sky was completely clear and empty. No clouds. Just stars in the distance. No noise. It just complelty disappeared. Or seemed to.

Clementon, NJ
I observed from my balcony several objects with green, red and white lights flying across the horizon. Some would make a u turn suddenly, and some would just disappear after being seen for about 1 minute. All of them were silent. They all were different light's and shaped objects its hard to discribe. one would be four white lights in a square shape, another two lights one light was blinking green. I seen several craft going in the same direction or hovering in the same part of the sky. The activity was crazy...I couldn't believe what we were seeing. I wanted to post this to see if anyone else in the Lindenwold/Clementon, NJ, area also witnessed this.

Whitmore Lake, MI
I was walking to my bus stop, when a flash of light caught the corner of my eye. I suddenly looked over to see a bright light take a nose dive tword the lake that was near me. I did not see the object hit the lake becaues my vision was blocked by a house. My freind who was at the bus stop had a better view of it. He said before it hit the lake it took a sudden right angle turn and zoomed across the lake and over the tree line out of sight. It was going faster than any object I've ever seen and the kind of turn my friend described would kill some one with the g-force.

Lakeland, FL
All of a sudden what I thought was an airplane in the distance was right in front of me with Blue & Red lights. Hovered only 2 seconds then darted to my left and disappeared. Could not see shape, only lights. Get this I DO NOT believe in UFO's, but my logical rational mind could not resolve this.

Phoenix, AZ
It was a light as bright as Venus and it was ESE about 25 degrees in elevation from my location toward Phoenix. It changed colors from red to blue to green to yellow. It was there up until the time I went to bed. I have a video and it shows an airplane on its landing path to Sky Harbor going underneath it. There was only one object and a few of my wife's facebook friends saw it.

Easton, PA
My girlfriend and I were driving on Old Mill Road in Forks Township. We noticed a big bright light in the sky and thought it was Venus. Upon closer examination, the light had a weirdness about it. It hung in the air in a way that suggested it was in the atmosphere and not a star or planet. After telling my girlfriend to film it, we drove past trees that covered our view. After making a turn on Wagonwheel, we regained a full view of the sky but the object had disappeared.

Blanchester, OH
I was thinking they were stars possibly, but there wasn't any other stars in the sky. So I got my phone out to snap a picture. I had trouble getting focused while I was driving and while I was in the process of trying to get focused, the bottom light started to move rapidly away from triangle shape it was positioned in. Then after it moved pretty far across the sky, I vanished in the air.

Birmingham, AL
I was observing what looked to be a really bright star as I walking to my car. The star-like object literally blinked out (disappeared) before my eyes.

Conyers, GA
Object seen under the moon flying from north to south towards the observers over interstate. It was moving quickly and growing in size. It seemed to turn in a slight half circle then briefly appeared to increase in size and intensity of brightness for roughly 3 seconds. The object then vanished into thin air. Planes could be seen in the same field of vision but were not similar in aircraft lighting. Clouds and air conditions did not play a factor in visibility.

Frederick, MD
4 lights seen in sky over Frederick, MD, for about 10 minutes Tuesday morning. Driving along route 550 in Frederick, I saw several lights hovering in the early morning sky at different altitudes. After about 10 minutes the lights simply vanished all at once.

Yukon/Oklahoma City, OK
Object can been seen from Yukon to Oklahoma City. My mother called me and told me she saw it in the sky and asked if we could, so we went out side to check if we could and I'll be damned we could see it. No telescope required but I wanted a closer look. I looked at it through our telescope and it was a white object with a red light on top. The object would flicker in many different colors every 30 seconds and white beams went down and from the sides of the object. I can defiantly tell you that is was not our typical aircraft of plane.

Bend, OR
One bright, reddish-orange light that looked like a small, flying flame. Moved from South to North over Pilot Butte State Park. No defined shape. Unclear if fireball, but it seemed to drop slightly and then lift upwards as it moved, which does not seem to be the way a fireball would move. Seen by a local woman who was driving to Whole Foods.

Talent, OR
It then jolted right and diagonal left, then again hovered and blinked out. As two more people arrived and we told them our experience and they began to discredit us, another light came up over the horizon at an astonishing speed. It then copied the patterns of the first and again blinked a couple times and faded into nothing.

Fort Bragg, CA
At first I thought it was an airplane, until the others had shown up. My boyfriend was the first to notice the first one. It was red in color with bits of green. So where the others, and they varied in size. They came from the north traveling southwards. It seemed like the other ones where following the first ones? Then they hovered in the sky for a moment, then slowly one by one they dissipated into the clouds. I don't know what they where, I am hoping they where lanterns or something. I really so not even believe in this stuff. I mean, I do believe that there are other planets they may have life on them, but I never believed in the whole UFO/alien thing. I just moved here about 6 months or so ago. I never seen anything like this. I don't know what else to put. I am just really freaked out. Even my cat, ((name deleted)), was freaking out. I don't know what to think. I tried to video record it, but I don't think it worked. I think the only thing showing up is the street lights below?

Austin, TX
Two lights or fireballs went across the sky moving quickly from west to east. The lights traveled one after the other, in the same direction, same trajectory, and at about the same speed, burning out or disappearing around the same duration. They were a light reddish in color with some flare.

San Antonio, TX
We saw 3 lights hovering in the sky followed by 5 more lights that appeared from nowhere. Look like they were following another unknown object. Took video… Then just like that they vanished

Kennewick, WA
At approximately 9:00 pm on January 2, 2015, I stepped out on my back porch to have a cigarette. In the south eastern sky I saw a triangular pattern of lights. The lights were reddish orange in color; the brightest of the lights was at the top point of the triangle. The two bottom points of the triangle were slightly dimmer. There were dimmer lights along the connecting points of the triangle. It took me a minute to comprehend what I was seeing, it was amazing. As the lights were getting dimmer, I shouted to my sister in the house to hurry and come see this. When I first saw this triangle there were approximately 10 lights. By the time my sister saw them, there were only about 5, with the brighter points of the triangle still visible. All of the lights got dimmer and faded away, some of the lights veered off from the triangular pattern.

Woodland, CA
Woodland, Ca. Friday, January 2nd, 06:16 hours. Observed a stationary bright orange star like object in the morning sky due east at an inclination of approximately 35 degrees from the horizon. After a couple of minutes the object faded slightly as it moved southward descending in elevation to a position just below its initial sighting and stopped. The object then flared up and slowly faded till unseen. Witnessed by myself and four others.

North Kingstown, RI
Background info: Approx 1 week ago, I noticed a bright steady light about the brightness of a medium star traveling north to south approximately 45 degrees above the horizon initially. Thought it might be a satelite, but object then made a 90-degree turn to the west, in the only way I know to describe it is 1" from my thumb to index finger. Tonight's sighting: Saw same brightness object travelling east to west in the sky at about 80 degrees above the southwest horizon in a straight track at 6:09 am. (I was standing with my neck completely bent back to look up). The object made a 90-degree turn soon after and then dimmed to nothing approximately 20 seconds later. Judging distance and speed of object, the velocity and turn radius seemed impossible for high flying plane. Hopefully my unscientific explanation makes sense. I'll keep an eye out closer now!

Victorville, CA
My 16 year old daughter is really convinced she saw something paranormal and specifically stated that she is convinced that this light was neither an aircraft or stadium lighting. She walked into our kitchen and noticed a huge light aimed into our window from the north- east. It was too bright to see past it, didn’t move, and it was too quiet to be an aircraft. She said she was surprised and stared at it hoping to figure out what it was when it flashed after 20 seconds of staring at it. It wasn’t a flash like something passed in front of it, it wasn’t like a regular camera flash because it was a massive size, but flashed like it blinked or possibly took a picture. She yelled, “What in the hell” and that’s when I got up from the living room to see what she was looking at. She said it flashed once more and then it disappeared before I was able to see it. We are in a second story apartment and she made it crystal clear that it wasn’t headlights either because shortly after it disappeared, a car drove down 11th street from the north. This isn’t the first time she and I have seen something like this. In 2010 we saw lights flying over that alerted the entire town and it was reported in the Dailey Press the following day with pictures.
