ok folks i was looking southwesterly at 2215 and there hovering about 3-5 miles away in the sky a few miles up in ther sky was this unidentified craft. It appeared to have three red lights that glowed in a vertical shaft formation and long with these two white lights flashing off and on. Now i would not of really paid it much attention untill I realized on this clear and quiet night I could not hear one engine! Airplanes fly over the hiosue all the time and I can hear them from miles away long before seeing them. Then the little feller decided to move laterally then vetically and hovered some more. Then is justy took off i should say slowly went out of view. I well versed in military, commercial, and private flying craft and this was not one of them. Not even a drone could do what it was doing at that scale. This was in Portage Lakes, Ohio. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Three horizontal lights orange/yellow in color. Stationery east of SE Palm Bay. About 5 minutes later an addition single light joined it. Tried to get a picture with my phone, but I was driving, so didn't get a good one. Tried to drive closer to the location, but trees were blocking my view. Once I got past the trees, it was gone. I am a 58 yr old mother of 4.

Was in my friend's backyard, jumping on a trampoline, when suddenly I saw a box with a orange light on it. My friend thought it was an airplane, but it was definitely not an airplane. We were then both staring at it and it turned around, and dropped about 20,000 feet in a matter of seconds, then it hovered over his backyard maybe 100 feet above then, I tossed a rock at it and zoomed away and it made a gust of wind! We suspect that the report is intended as a hoax. PD

El Mirage, AZ
We saw several (approximately a dozen) sparkling metallic reflections in a group. Moving up, down, left to right, approximately 2500 feet high or more, on a clear day, for about 5 minutes. We have never seen anything like this. They were not birds, planes, balloons, or any identifiable craft of any sort. This lasted for about 5 minutes. Then they just disappeared. Strangest thing we have ever seen.

Mesa, AZ
We were laying watching the night sky for shooting stars when I noticed what at first seemed to be a ground spotlight in the sky. I pointed it out to the other person, we both realized it was not a spotlight within seconds. It came from the south going to the north. It looked rectangular and seemed to have tan on the underneath. Almost like many tan "things" flying in formation or like a parachute. It was going too fast to be birds or a parachute and it was just after midnight. It made absolutely no noise and had no lights on it.

San Bernardino/Highland, CA
Here is what happened on my way home from work May 11, 2015, in the afternoon around 5PM: Recently, I saw some kind of UFO ship that you might be interested in hearing about. I would never have believed that I would see something quite like this. I was on my way home from work earlier this month May 11, 2015, about 5PM in the afternoon. I spotted a ship in the sky as I was leaving Redlands while traveling West on the 10 Freeway for several miles, until I was too far West to see it anymore. It was North of the 10 Freeway, and it was above the 210 Freeway around the area of North-East San Bernardino and just above Highland California. I thought that it was something from the military. My health is not so good these days, and my only thought was to get home to keep with my schedule. In hindsight, I wish that I would have driven over towards Highland to get a better look at it, to take a picture of it, and to draw it to the attention of other people in that area at the time it was there in the sky. I wish that I had taken pictures to prove what I am saying. I had trouble staying in my lane with my truck because I was amazed at what I was seeing. I saw it from the side, as I looked North towards the San Bernardino Mountains. Specifically, it was closer to Highland California and was near the San Manuel Indian Casino area. I had a very clear view of the ship under the much higher clouds. I got a very good look at it for about five minutes. It was stationary in the sky, and it did not move an inch the whole time that I watched it. If it was a balloon, you would think that it would at least have moved a little. It just hovered there from my view, about 3/4 as high as the top of the San Bernardino Mountains. I saw no ropes or chains under it to hold it in place. What I saw hovering in the sky above San Bernardino/Highland California was rectangular in shape. I saw no lights on it, as it was daylight still. It was much longer than it was high. I would describe it as about 180 feet long and around 30 feet high or more. It had square sections to the ship. It had no wings or propellar that I could see, and it emitted nothing. Most of the ship was silver/metallic in color, but it did have some other dark colors too that made it look like it had been manufactured and put together in sections. It looked like something that could have been man made, but it was so big. However, I have never seen anything like it before, and I have no idea how it was staying so still in the sky. The separate sections reminded me of being similar to the ship that crash landed in the beginning of the science fiction movie, "Pitch Black." It was like something from out of a movie. I thought that it would have been on the news later that night, but I did not see anything on television. The very next time that I drove to work on the 10 Freeway, it was gone from that area of the sky. I have ran a search on the Internet, and it seems that someone else did see it later that evening. Here is the report they issued at this website that I am also about to post on: http://www.nuforc.org/webreports/118/S118948.html This couple saw it from their house in Highland several hours later that evening after my sighting. But that shows that I am not the only one who saw it. You would think that with that many people living in San Bernardino, Highland, and surrounding cities that others would have noticed it too and would have reported it to the newspaper. I only hope this is a ship owned and operated by our United States military. Anyway, I will probably never find out what it was. There is nothing much more to tell, other than what I have written here today. In addition, I have written the San Bernardino Sun newspaper to find out if there has been any other information that has been reported. I believe in God. My dad and I have seen meteorites hit the ground out in the desert on our way back from Arizona before, but I have never seen anything like this in all my life. I never thought things like this were important. Thanks for your interest.

San Bernardino, CA
Recently, I saw a UFO ship on my way home from work May 11, 2015 in the afternoon around 5PM, and it was full daylight out. I was leaving Redlands in my truck while traveling West on the 10 Freeway, when I saw it out of my passenger window for several miles, out to the North, just above the City of San Bernardino's border with Highland California. I saw it as I looked north out of my passenger window and out of the back window of my truck, until I drove too far West on the 10 Freeway to be able to see it anymore. I had trouble staying in my lane because I was amazed at what I was seeing. Specifically, I saw it from the side as I looked North towards the backdrop of the San Bernardino Mountains. There was no smog or haze interrupting my view. I had a very clear view of the ship under the much higher clouds for at least five minutes. It was stationary in the sky, and it did not move an inch the whole time that I watched it. It was not a balloon. It just hovered there, about 3/4 as high as the top of the San Bernardino Mountains. I saw no ropes or chains under it to hold it in place. I have no idea how something that big can hover still in the sky like that. Moreover, it was rectangular in shape. (See attached drawing.) I saw no lights on it. It had no wings or propellor, and it was not emitting steam or smoke. It was much longer than it was high. I estimate it was 180 feet long and 30 feet high or more. My view was limited to the side, so I could not judge depth of the ship. The accompanying image that I have included shows the shape of the aircraft. Regardless of the high cloud cover, I am sure that our government saw this enormous ship on radar. I thought that it was something from the military because it looked like the same type of material that an airplane can be made from. It was silver/metallic with black lines that defined square separate sections of the ship, which made it look like it was manufactured. Most importantly, I thought that it would have been on the television news later that night, but nothing has been shown. The very next time that I drove to work on the 10 Freeway, it was gone from that area of the sky. I have ran a search on the Internet, and two people in Highland have reported to have seen a UFO in the same area later that evening at the webpage: http://www.nuforc.org/webreports/118/S118948.html You would think that with that many people living in San Bernardino, Highland, and surrounding cities that someone would have noticed it because it was daylight. I would like to find out if there are other people that have reported it. Best regards America!

Huge rectangular shape seen on and in the cloud level directly above. The edges were clear with high contrast. It was opaque but appeared transluscent. The colours were similar to its surroundings. A dark blue rectangle with a cloudy light white frame. So it seemed solid but cloaked. It seemed flat, not three dimensional. The clouds floated below the shape but no clouds floated against or along the shape like clouds would flow around a plane. It was still for hours. It looked like clouds had been replaced by the shape and what is left is a cutout in the clouds. You could see the night sky through other moving clouds but could not see through this shape. So it was not a see through hole. Clouds floated below the shape and light did not affect those clouds and, therefore this shape was likely not formed from light shining from the ground. Although, the clouds that framed it oddly seemed to block our vision from anything above it. Someone else saw 2 or 3 concentric circles around the object like rings you see around sun/moon sometimes. As we went home it seemed as though the farther, long edge of the rectangle angled or bent downward towards us.

New Bern, NC
While my wife and I were traveling on hwy 70 west, between the towns of Havelock and New Bern, NC, we noticed above the tree line on the right hand side of the road what we original thought were the lights of one of those cell phone towers that you see everywhere, and we subsequently noticed a small red light that appeared to be flashing slowly between the two original white lights. It was raining that night with cloudy overcast and the cloud ceiling was low. We continued traveling for an additional 1-2 minutes, then in about the same area but this time only about what seemed to be only 50-100 feet above the tree line. This time what we saw although not specifically seeing the shape of a rectangle due to the weather we saw what looked like a sequence of white lights on what would have been the front of this thing. Plus it looked like it remained fairly still as if hovering. However when we opened the car window to listen we heard no sound. And there was something about the lights they looked somehow bigger than conventional aircraft landing lights, and we did not see any other red or green lights coming from the craft in what would have been landing type lights. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he sounded to us to be quite sober-minded. We suspect that he and his wife are very good witnesses. PD

Van Wert, OH
Today is May-10-2015 Today at 3:40 p.m. I saw a UFO. I backed out of my driveway, and there it was, directly in front of me. It was more than a mile away, but so very obvious. What I saw was very black, and very rectangular.It was huge. It was jutting out of a low cloud. (We had scattered showers today.) It was visible for 20 to 30 seconds, before the clouds enveloped it. This occurred in northern VanWert County, Ohio. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I looked up at the sky and noticed a strange object. It seemed to be a metallic silver rectangle shaped craft. It was heading southeast, it had no wings or lights. It was just simply a silver rectangle in the sky. As I was driving, I’m not sure if it was moving or stationary. I observed it for less than a minute.

Redmond, WA
I woke up in the night and heard a very loud noise, like somebody is running a lawn machine outside. The sound is definitely not like what regular planes would make, so I walked over to the window and pull up the curtain. I immediately saw a large object in the sky flying at a much lower height than the regular plane with red and green lights in a rectangular shape. The object passed by my window in less than 1 minute. I'm pretty sure it is not the regular plane, it has rectangular shape, fly much closer to the ground and the noise is very special.

Aberdeen Proving Grounds, MD
My husband and I were traveling south on I-95 and had just passed Perryville. The sun was setting as I woke up saw a strange object in the sky. It was large enough to see from the Havre de Grace bridge. We continued on for 5 minutes in silence as I tried to make out what it was and noticed other drivers looking just as confused as we were in the direction of the object. I finally asked my husband if he saw what I was seeing. He said yes and that he noticed it as far back as the Chesapeake House and it hadn’t moved since. The closer we got to the object the more perplexed we were. This thing was a dark matte black with red marker lights on the corners and hovered about a 1000 feet off the ground. It seemed to be positioned just off shore of Aberdeen Proving Ground. The enormity of the object seemingly floating so low and effortlessly in the sky left us speechless. I am not exaggerating when I say this was roughly the size of a football field. It was a shaped like positioned flat and matte black in color with what looked like red marker lights in the corners. I tried to take a photos/video but nothing would appear in my view finder. We decided to get off the nearest exit to get closer but we still couldn’t come up with a rational explanation for what we were seeing. Once the sun had set it seemed to blend into the night sky. Shortly after we found ourselves at the gates to Aberdeen Proving Ground. Aberdeen PG is known for research and had recently flown 2 observation balloons anchored by ropes for 2 to 3 months over the Dundalk just south of the APG near Essex. This was nothing like that. It never moved and hovered for easily 45 minutes with no signs of anything anchoring this to the ground to make it stay in place. I searched the web for years to see if anyone else witnessed the object in the sky that night but haven’t seen a thing. It was so extraordinary it needs to be documented because if it wasn’t a UFO I’d love to know what it could’ve been. I hope that our experience helps trigger someone’s memory to remember theirs. I haven’t seen anything like it to this day. For something so large to make no sound and just float in the sky was incredible to say the least.

King George, VA
I saw something fly across the sky last night as I drove north through a rural area of Route 301 in King George, Virginia. This craft was huge, was not moving very fast, and I couldn’t hear it make any noise. (I even opened my car window because I felt like I SHOULD be able to hear it. But I heard nothing but my own car.) About 3-5 minutes passed from the time I noticed it approach on my right until I couldn’t see it anymore on my left (trees in the way). This happened at about 10:10pm the night of April 23, 2015. I continued to drive as I watched it go by, not having a safe place at the time to pull over. (Unfortunately, the camera feature on my very old model of phone does not work. Darn it!) From my view this object seemed like a large rectangle. The shorter ends had white lights, three (or maybe more) across the front and at least two on the back with one red light blinking in the middle of the rear (between the white lights). The object seemed very large because of the diminishing perspective of the row of lights, which at first made it seem like it was tilted at an angle but then I realized it was actually a row of lights covering a long length (the way a long fence seems smaller and at an angle the farther away it is from the viewer). The two rows of lights remained equidistant from each other the entire time the craft passed by. (It was definitely NOT two planes flying in sync with each other, which my rational mind was trying to make work as an explanation.) It was dark in the area between the lights. Though I seemed to be able to see “sky” between the two rows of lights, I don’t remember actually being able to see stars. It was like a large rectangular piece of glass floating by with lights at both ends. If you have ever seen a large commercial plane landing, it seemed to be moving a little slower than that. It seemed to be flying parallel to the Potomac River on the Virginia side (crossing Route 301), maybe heading toward northern Virginia or Washington, DC. Size? I wouldn’t be surprised if this thing was at least 100 meters by 300 meters or so. VERY INTERESTING! ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Hello. I reported a UFO sighting that occurred on April 23, 2015 in King George, Virginia. I was just taking a look at it, and for some reason it says King George, NC. I could have sworn I had entered "Virginia." The sighting occurred in King George, VA. I live in Winterville, NC. Just thought you might want your record to be accurate. Thanks. ((END ADDENDUM)) We finally amended the report on October 21st, 2015, with the posting of the above addendum, submitted on May 12, 2015. We apologize for the delay in correcting the report. PD

My wife shouted at me to come outside and look up at the sky,when I did I was in amazement at what I was seeing there was two white lights in the front and two in the back with a red pulsing light between the lights in the rear. The craft had to be larger than a football field, due to the fact that it blocked out so many stars as it passed over. It seemed to be flying around cloud height much lower than commercial airplane and did not make any noise what so ever, it just seemed to glide across the sky

I'm from Brazil, and this week I saw something unusual, at 5 am an object in the middle of nowhere next to the highway, he had made a hexagon sides, had an open door with a very strong light on the cleared bush all around, never seen so closely, here always appears objects and wanted someone review research, is not the first ez it happens at the end of last year saw a plane being followed by a 4 times larger object and was white with a red port in the middle, in 1986 saw two objects resting on a mountain, in less than three minutes these objects rose to the skies. if you want more details I can draw up to the Lords have an idea of what is, grateful for the attention. I know that something happens here, I am curious to find out since 1986, do not have time and resources to do this study and ask for help, work and take care of my parents who do not walk good health. I do not speak your language try to find the right person. We express our sincere appreciation to Ms. Barb Becker, of Missouri Investigators Group, for sharing the interesting report with our Center.

During meteor shower, biggest in years. Myself and my wife laying flat on our backs in a secluded grassy area on a picnic blanket around ten pm. Huge meteor shows up, we track it w our eyes, as we track it, this rectangular ship LITERALLY APPEARS, not flew into our view, NO, this thing was "cloaked", and it became visible b4 our eyes. Simply moved slowly out of the way of the oncoming meteor and cloaked again. Literally happened in five seconds. Wife saw it too. Clear as day. There wasn't even time to grab a cell phone shot. This was two years ago? I think. And I wanted to report it to somewhere more credible than Mufon. I hope this helps. I do not mind answering any further questions you may have. Thank you. Sincerely, ((name deleted)) Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
