Grand Forks, ND
I went out to have a smoke at 11:00 pm. Looking up at the stars i noticed one bright light that I thought was a plane. It was a bright white light with no flashing lights. It seemed to turn, and as it did, it turned into three bright lights for a few moments and disappeared. I watched for it to reappear and it never did

Green Bay, WI
I saw this object late Friday night in the sky. I watched it for about an hour. I have not seen it since. It was facing west over North East Wisconsin. I took these pictures on a Sony A-100 with a 4.5-5.6/75-300 lens with a long exposure. It appeared to be slanting toward the left and hovered over the same area. There were no noises and it was higher than a plane with blinking lights. There are no radio towers or tall buildings in this direction. It's a rural area. http://imgur.com/a/wwGtg Close ups: http://imgur.com/YOTGqIy http://imgur.com/jflLwkY http://imgur.com/huVwyq9 http://imgur.com/Ad1YZft http://imgur.com/XbWkBXr

Lima, OH
First witness was in a back room of their home and states that they did notice the orange light but thought nothing of it due to frequent helicopter travel above the home. First witness then noticed the light had not moved, cats outside froze as they looked up at the light and then ran off when it moved. The light then proceeded to slowly and steadily move upwards and towards the house. The frst witness began to record the light and then realized the orange light was going descending toward the house. Frst witness ran outside to attempt to record but became frightened when they realized the orange light made no sound. They then procced to rally two other witnesses and follow the light above the front of the house when it descended up into the sky and disappeared. Witnesses say it seemed like an object but the orange lights over came the object. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Osage Beach, MO
Fly toward Grand Glaze pool, below Grand Glaze Bridge west to east +-. One followed by a second (20 sec later) then turn south and elevate for 2 minutes maybe 2000 feet and disappear. Three followed by a four (20 sec later) then turn south and elevate for 2 minutes maybe 2000 feet and disappear. Five followed by a six (20 sec later) then turn south and elevate for 2 minutes maybe 2000 feet and disappear. The next 3 were more random but same flight path. The last flew directly towards the pool and was bigger but seem to drop some red flair type material

Richmond Heights, MO
I looked up at an airplane flying overhead and closer to the horizon, a light caught my eye. The light was in the western sky, moving southward in a straight and slightly downward trajectory, much faster than the airplane above. It was silver and apparently very bright, for it stood out well against the orange and red sunset. The light was also apparently below the clouds, since as it passed by them, it was not covered up. As it moved, the light faded transparent, not dimmed, and disappeared. There was no sound. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I ended a phone call and went to the balcony to smoke a cigarette. I sat down on the chair, light my smoke and looked up. I saw a yellow whitish light moving at a decline towards the earth and immediately thought UFO. At this point, my instinct was to record with my phone, but it was in the house. I proceeded to the door to get my phone, looked back to make sure I wasn't crazy, and saw the light. I was fascinated, so I was in a gaze. Moments later, the light broke into pieces and turn into a white color and fell towards the Earth light fireworks at a big display. As the white lights fell, it disappeared. This was not a firework. The angle it was traveling and the speed would make it impossible to be a firework. This object fell from the sky and towards the Earth at an angle that would make it impossible to be. Only other explanation would be a meteor falling to Earth and breaking up.

Los Angeles, CA
there was a steady blink in the night sky. Thought it was aircraft a few days ago, third night (not consecutively) seeing the same even re-occurring in various places in the night sky. Tonight, it remained in the same spot. A very bright, white light. Slow and steady blink. No movement. White only. Blinks lasted about a second in between few minutes variables. If I see a 4th night, I will pay keener attention to timing. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Ypsilanti, MI
There were four red lights moving in different directions. They looked like they were sparrow (bird) shaped with a bright red ball of light in the center. One began to shrink and suddenly disappeared. The other three continued to move in a SW direction and then they suddenly vanished. They made no sound at all.

The Longwood Estate (Hampshire)(UK/England) · United Kingdom
The Longwood Estate (near Long Wood Road, Owzlebury). I ventured out one night and drove the 14 miles or so from my home to a particular area of Hampshire (famed for its outstanding beauty and interesting history) and parked up at a favourite spot of mine that is sign-posted as a path (for walkers and horse-riders). Having left my vehicle, I proceeded to walk on down the path that goes through a large wood, which after quite a way splits off into bridleway's signposted left and right/straight ahead or back the way I had came (I have walked this path many,many times over the years and have alway's felt there is some-one else there the whole time watching me(though of course there never is any-one there at all.......)walking through particular spot's along the path always make me feel particularly uncomfortable but the whole path is itself Incredibly un-nerving,errie And Very Creepy(this as I said at the beginning is to do with it's long history and certain reputation and you can guess the rest and the reasons why......)! anyway upon reaching the junction I decided to walk straight ahead which takes you up hill and around a blind sharp bend which is scarey in itself (particularly at night) as you cannot see what is around the corner until you walk round it. But having walked up hill and around the corner and stood for a while rather than walk on up to the top (which I usually do)but on this occasion I decided not to because I felt particularly scared and as I was making my way back down the hill it was at this point that I saw a very bright and Quite large white light at a very low altitude streak down at an angle from the sky(to my left)very close to where I was walking as I say I saw it fall from the sky but because I did'nt see it land on the ground (as somekind of craft would do)nor know the exact location of where it landed other than it being very close to where I was walking (if it did indeed land) then I don't know weather it was just a Shooting star or something else entierly.

it seemed the ball of light and the helicopters were about 30" in the air because the were almost touching the trees and how much it made the house shake and how loud the helicopters were. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Loutraki (Korinthos) (Greece) · Greece
Tuesday, July 22, 2014, at 8:45 PM, a UFO photographed on the Greek island of Poros, escorts a passenger airplane. The incident captured with the camera of UFO researcher Harris Koutsiaftis which at that time was from the southwest side of the main city. Seven minutes after Poros island, the unknown object and the airplane come their pass over Loutraki at Korinthos. The witness John P. immortalized on a video the crossing. According to Harris, the continuous variation of light on the unknown object (as you will notice in the video) was due to volatile changes, which they was not happening with the airplane, that has a steady course in traffic level. iframe width="400" height="225" src="// www.youtube.com/embed/4wVHifFQaFs?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Poros Island (Greece) · Greece
Tuesday, July 22, 2014, at 8:45 PM, a UFO photographed on the island of Poros, escorts a passenger plane. The incident captured with the camera of UFO researcher Harris Koutsiaftis, which at that time was from the southwest side of the main city. The two objects (where flying at high altitude) was shining, thanks to the reflection of the sun on them. Available in 30-40 seconds remained visible in the visual field of the researcher. Those seconds the unknown object was moving parallel to the plane, then began to overtake them and in the ends flies in front of the nose of the airplane at a greater distance, until it lost both skyline. At the time of the photographs, dozens of people around began to realize what was happening and looked up in the sky observing and commenting on the paradox of the case. Analyzing the incident, Harris said about the identity of shiny objects: "There is no known conventional military aircraft to fly with such speed, to reflect sunlight and it not after exhaust! So we talk, or an alien flying saucer, or a secret human aircraft, there escort the plane after the incessant crashes occurring in the last days." In a further statement, Harris, excluded also the case of a reflection of a plane in icy cloud crystals, not only because of July and the clear skies of that evening, but also because the strange glow was not after the Sun but between him and the object. More, for the strange passage through the next issue of Greek UFO magazine named "ET" and the September issue of Greek "Phenomena".

Almost as soon as i looked at it, it began to get brighter and brighter white. It than started to move directly towards earth, i noticed trails as if it was a comet heading directly towards me but very far off. It than seemed to loose the trails behind it came to a stop. Then it shot northward and dimmed slowly as it streak across the sky and out of view. Very scarey and makes my hair stand up thinking about it.

I was taking my dog out for a walk and I noticed about 5 really bright orange lights moving accross the sky in an east southeast direction. They were silent. The lights were brighter than any plane I've seen in the sky. Then the lights just faded quickly away in a random order.

One large round bright white/blueish light appeared and faded slowly. Seconds later it appeared dimmer and flew quickly out of sight with a bit of a tail.

A family member and I we're returning home and, noticed there was a bright red (very red) light in the sky. The light was hovering over a neighbors yard, it was big enough to be seen and, super bright! I pulled into my drive way and,told them to stay in the car, I am going to get the camera! I opened my car door turned around and, looked at the light and, it it disappeared!! It disappeared so quick that I have no idea what direction or where it went. I could tell it looked as if it was a small object, but the light was so bright that it was hard to make out shape! I have never seen anything like this before and, the brightness of this red light was almost overwhelming. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I pointed out to my friend and my wife we continued to watch it move across the sky hen after a few seconds it disappeared. We saw 2 more pas by on the same path each on was about 3-5 mins apart. Was very strange. The lights appeared to be traveling south.

I stopped and listened thinking it might be a helicopter, but again, no noise and no blinking lights. As it disappeared, I shrugged it off. A few minutes later, there were six more red lights, all traveling together slowly and quietly below the clouds, but spaced erratically and at different altitudes. Again, they were low enough that I would have heard engine noise. They flew in the same direction and eventually disappeared out of sight.
