Athens, GA
Saw a white cigar shaped craft, slowly flying over head. Just under th clouds. Seemed glossy white like a commercial air craft. No markings. It sounded like a jet and a helicopter in one. It had two wings and 4 smaller cigar shaped what looked like engines or where a props would be. Never seen a craft like this and once I read other people had seen something similar I wonder wtf it was/is. The weather.....? Weather drones....? Witness provides no contact information. PD

While waiting for the bus looking at the morning moon and admiring nature itself, I saw a object going around in a circle at the distance in the sky it may have been about a mile or so going around but the height was Very Far in the air off of the flight path of intercontinental flights (I have always took interest in my fathers joy of watching airplanes so I know the difference also being a RC Buff 8 ground R/C's and 4 Air R/C's) Also I know there is only one frequency to get at least 10 miles or better and that's UHF band but the control and distance was far beyond that of any UHF band I have ever seen or read about also at the height it was there should have been a en trail but none living in this area for as many years that I have been I know the flight paths of our airports and flight areas for the R/C planes but this was neither because it just appeared then circled and then in a flash it was gone as for the color I saw red along the sides outlined with! a yellow..... I find it strange that I was the only person whom saw it I even raised my Shades to see it and saw it and keeping my eye trained on it to ask the two other people who where at the bus stop did they see it is when it is when it disappeared never to be seen again in my eye.....

Leominster, MA
While driving on Route 2 east, a very large metallic, silver craft was hovering above the highway, reflecting the sun's rays. Thought it was a plane, but it suddenly moved very quickly away unlike any plane/helicopter I have ever seen. It seemed to be playing hide and seek and stayed near to the sun, making it difficult to see. And suddenly disappeared. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

On November 10, 2016, on a clear and sunny day while horseback riding with my wife at 4:28pm heading back home did observe a bright shinning silver colored object coming from the north and heading in a southwest direction. We both came to a conclusion at about the same time "UFO" it was about 500 feet in front of us and about 600 to 900 feet up. "No tail section, no sound, no wings or a identifiable fuselage, no lights or markers, no windows, no exhaust or noticeable trail "or signature none" , did experience the air was muffled, our horses did not panic or show any stress. We put the size of the object about 300 feet in length and the width we could not see, just a side view or a west view. The craft did at one point slow down as if to observe us, then picked up is original speed, but we noted that the speed was slow and not like any aircraft you would expect, but compared to a speed of a old Goodyear Blimp at its highest speed?! My wife a nurse of more than 40 years and myself a correctional officer for over seventeen years, worked the last four years as a security guard and a EMR now retired and my wife as well. I was also in the military for twenty five years as well.

I stopped straight in my track and started panicking. Scariest thing I've ever seen. We spoke via telephone with the young witness, and he assures us that the report is sincere and accurate. PD

Huntsville, AL
We were staring at the stars and we noticed what we thought was a very bright star (it was also twinkling) and about 30 minutes later it started to move towards the tree line. Then it was behind the tress completely and it would move in a random pattern until it came into the open sky and got brighter (it was changing colors from green, white, and red) then it got almost blinding bright and seemed to get closer. As it got closer it looked to be two space crafts, one big one shaped like a winged cigar shape and a second one trailing behind it that looked smaller and was shaped like a cylinder. It sounded like an airplane that was shaky. When it passed by, nothing really happened after. But before the space crafts came by, me and my friend were talking about a previous account of seeing a space craft in this area. All in all, this was a very long experience and very stressful.

Virginia Beach, VA
First thought was a commercial plane (in appearance and color, shape yada yada), then took notice it wasn't moving, it was only 6 stories high {just above the stadium lights} and also it was silent. It had white lights running across the bottom, with a couple of red lights on both ends. Once, my brain concluded it was not behavior of any known plane that large to hover silently that low, was not a helo, was not a drone (unless it's a million dollar drone that was as big as a commercial plane and capable of holding completely still). As I was quickly trying to call boss and yell down to another employee to see if either of them was seeing what I was seeing, running down the ramp from 2nd floor as I kept an eye on it. I looked away for approx. 4 seconds as I looked for the other employee or anyone to tell them to look up, it was gone. I ran back up the ramp and asked a group of men watching the football game if they had seen a blimp or anything fly over the field. They said they were looking downward to the game. In my 54 years I have never seen anything like it and so close that I know what it wasn't. This same location on different nights in Oct and Nov others and I have witnessed green glowing falling stars 3 feet off the ground, and tree line yellow and white ones on other occasions. More activity in this one location then I have seen in my entire 54 years. The large aircraft continued to bother me as I had no explanation for what I AM SURE I SAW. I don't drink nor do drugs. Thus, still wanting answers, I entered some keywords into search engine and to my surprise others across the state of VA have described the same craft at about same tree line area, silent with the lights across the bottom. I wonder how many people see unexplainable things and don't report for fear of being labeled as mentally disturbed.

Fort Worth, TX
My husband and I were driving back to the hotel we are staying in here in Fort Worth Texas. We just finished dinner. It was approximately 5:30 pm and we were on hwy 170. I was in the passenger seat and we were driving into the very bright afternoon sun. I looked at my husband while we were talking and noticed something very bright reflecting the sun in the sky out his window past his head. It was reflecting just like a mirror, it made me want to squint. It seemed to me it was reflecting the bright sunlight. It was hovering above a field- completely still in the sky. I said "What is that?" but he couldn't take his eyes off the road to look because of heavy traffic. I leaned towards him trying to see around him. I saw it go to plain grey metal color and I could tell it was shaped like a bar. It was completely still in the sky. No movement at all. I kept leaning around him and trying to re-adjust myself to keep it in view and then suddenly, it was gone, as if it had just disappeared.

Philadelphia, PA
Looking out my window while star gazing I witnessed a slow moving object travel from my south to my east at an altitude of aprroximately 65 degrees. At first I thought the object was an aircraft. Upon further inspection with my 10 x's binoculars there were no navigation lights however the craft was somehow illuminated. Its color appeared a rusty orange. Through the binocs the size of the UFO would be compared to a jet airliner. I could not make out any exact details of the flying object except it was cigar shaped with what appeared to be solar panels or wings of some kind located around the middle of the its body. The evening was clear, the moon was not up yet and in or near it's last quarter phase. Conditions were favorable for star gazing. My dilemma, since there were no lights on the aircraft, why or how was it illuminated? Looking through my binoculars (10 x's)the craft I saw was about the same size as a jet airliner. The UFO gave no emission or contrail. It had to be in at least a low orbit around our planet. That far away, looking through my binoculars it appeared to be the same size as a jet airliner. The object had to be gigantic for it to appear the size as a jet airliner. How else could the object be illuminated if not from the moon's reflection. I've seen, on many occasions, the ISS and never have been able to see any detail of that craft the way I did this object. So, here I am making a UFO report.

A slow moving, cigar shaped obeject flew slowly overhead and out of sight. The object returned a few minutes later going in the opposite direction until disappearing behind the tree line. The craft was shiny and cigar shaped and made no noise at all.

Marietta, GA
My granddaughter and I witnessed an object that was travelling from southwest to northeast that was white and appeared the size and shape of a jumbo jet minus and wings. It made its way silently across the sky until it reached the horizon. The really strange part of this story is... this sighting repeated three times over a period of one hour. I'm assuming it was three different craft because it moved so slowly across the sky. We are not far from Dobbins Air Force Base and no fighter jets were scrambled (several years ago I witness an orange ball of light moving across the sky that was chased by a fighter jet) but nothing as dramatic as that occurred.

A bar-shaped ufo flying slow on a slant over the trees, three bright lights straight across as I was driving down west farms rd, but lost sight of it. We assume a nighttime sighting, and have changed the time above. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous, and provides no contact information, so we are unable to confirm the time. PD

Clear day sky. Observe white/silver cigar object resembling (size) the KC-10 but no markings, no tail, no wings, no sound, no contrail, and no lights. About one mile high and less than one mile away traveling a steady horizontal course west to east (est. 100-200 MPH).

Silverlake, CA
I was sitting at a stop sign when I looked up and noticed something hovering in the sky that looked like a golden glowing rod. I watched it as it remained stationary. I noticed an orb come out of the right side of the rod and circle around the rod. I then noticed a second orb appear and fly around the rod. After a few minutes, the rod disappeared and i saw a third orb appear from out of nowhere from a distance to the left and fly towards the other 2 orbs. I asked a guy walking his dog to look up and told him what I was seeing and as soon as he looked up, all of the crafts disappeared.

Virginia Beach, VA
Caught on motion camera 8:30 just at dark. 5 seconds. Craft cigar shaped with two whitish orange lights on either end approx 3 feet wide. Seemed to have a red infrared type beam on ground even after the craft left frame. Flashed from somewhat dim to bright one time for about half second. Have blurry zoom of it. Some kind of appendage on top but can't tell. Moved fast between house trees. Too fast and small an area to be a drone in my opinion. Came into view by shed, flashed and quickly but efficiently moved away avoiding trees and fences. Motion was almost scary as it departed. Clear night 8 ' off of ground 20 feet from camera. No sound recorded camera inside. No red or green navigation lights that I could see. Across from JEB naval base. Good video of it hovering and departing.

Rico, CO
At approx 2100 hrs myself and one other experienced guide viewed a cigar shaped craft that we could only estimate as beinf several hundred yards long slowly crossed the valley we were camped in, in the Lizard Head Wilderness area of the San Juan mountains. The craft made no noise and traveled in a slow set course. There were approx eight white lights on it that blinked every few seconds. As it was leaving our view inside the valley it seemed to rise higher into the atmospehere until it vanished. Myself and my friend without talking moved camp into the woodline and we have never talked about this event since.

Redding, CA
Around 14:45 on Friday Sept 16, as I turned onto Airport Rd from HWY 44 (east of Redding proper), an object appeared to be hovering over the south end of the Redding Muni airport runway. As we have heavy helicopter traffic, I thought nothing of it until I noticed the driver in the truck in front of me pointing it out to his passenger. When I got to the airport entrance, I noticed that it was still in the same location but was actually a bit off to the east of the airport. The car behind me had pulled off to the side of the road and the driver got out to look at it as did the people in the truck two cars in front of me. I quickly grabbed my iPhone to get some pictures, all the while checking to ensure the object had not moved. I snapped four shots of the object within approximately 500 yard section of Airport Rd and when I looked back after taking them, the object had vanished. I then pulled over to scan the horizon to see which direction it had gone, but it was nowhere to be seen. I checked my phone pics to ensure I actually captured the object, but though I had captured the correct area of the sky in which the object was located, there was nothing in any of the photos! The object was probably about the size of a 737 or a DC-10, roughly cigar shaped with what appeared to be a slight dome above the center of the craft, and no visible wings or tail. It appeared to be a dull sandy gray color with no other discernible markings. The fact that it hovered for so long is even more impressive than its sudden disappearance given its apparent size. Because of all the fire bombers and military aircraft heading in and out of the airport, I would normally be inclined to think it was one of "ours"; however, I know of none of our aircraft (not a Chinook or an Osprey) which can simply vanish in front of one's eyes!

Downtown Nashville, TN
The date may have been 9/10/2016. It was around 1930. Driving by downtown Nashville on I-24 (we went in both directions) my sister was taking pictures of the city during sunset. I drove by it a few times so she could get some good shots. We looked at the pics later and saw the bright white lit, cigar shaped UFOs (about 4) hovering in the pictures, also looked as if there was a trail of some sort like they were moving upward. We still have the pictures that I emailed in. You can see them over the Korean Veteran's bridge as well as the AT&T Building. Can't explain what else they would be. We zoomed in to make sense of it. The windows were down and she didn't take the pics with a flash so we know it wasn't a reflection of anything. None of this was seen with the naked eye. Someone can get back to me if they wish to. I'll mark it that they can if they have any questions. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Paragould, AR
Traveling into Paragould from Jonesboro. Saw a large either cigar or triangle shaped black object (hard to tell as it was dark outside as well) moving fast, with two bright lights on either end. It flew directly overhead of my vehicle. I've never seen anything like it, but I have seen other UFO's in the area.

Albuquerque, NM
Last evening, Friday, September, 2016 at 7:30 p.m., my friends and I witnessed a glowing pinkish light suspended in the western skies of Albuquerque. It was the shape of an elongated cigar positioned vertically. It did not move or fade off as a vapor trail would. A bright object was positioned a good deal north of the UFO, possibly Saturn. Not long past sunset, the backdrop was a light pearly grey. The object was roughly parallel on the horizon with the planet. When I put my glasses on for greater detail, I could tell this was a specific, contained shape. On my drive home headed southbound, I could no longer see the pink UFO. It had disappeared. I know it was gone because the bright "planet" used as a reference point remained, but the UFO did not. Even with the silhouette of trees, I should have seen this bright pink object. It was not that low in the sky. Once home, I went online to see if anyone had reported weather balloons over Albuquerque that night; there were no such reports.
