Monument (event observed over Cheyenne Mtn.), CO

Driving down the road and looked up into the darkness over Cheyenne mountain, a string or trail of bright yellowish lights manifested high in the sky for a moment and seemed to move south east away from Cheyenne Mountain at high speed.

New River, AZ

Some friends and I were having dinner in New River next to the freeway and one friend said she had just seen a blimp holding still outside the restaurant; a string of lights. I asked her if she could see an outline or other detail since it was an odd time for a blimp to be flying out in the desert. She then pointed it out to me and I saw a string of 7-10 or more tiny lights in a straight line. It appeared to be sitting on top of a mountain to the east. If it were a building of that size it would be very out of place in the rural desert as the row of lights made it look like a huge building. I made an effort to look for it in the morning to see if there was a huge house or other structure on the mountain but there was not. I would have taken a photo but all I had was my crummy phone and it doesn't take good pix at night.

Dixon, CA

Looking East/Southeast clearly seen from some distance away a line of 10 or so balls of light that descended at a 45 degree angle to the horizon line, each was equal distance from the other. Almost like they were fired from a stationary object since they were perfectly aligned and did not vary in their trajectory downward. Strangest thing I have ever seen. From that distance and location, I am presuming they were tests from the China Lake Naval Weapons Testing area some 200 miles away from my location and located in the same direction, but that is only a hunch

Belchertown, MA

As it got about 50 feet in front of the car it broke from a bean of light to three small white lights in a triangle formation. Slowly other lights started to materialize around it, including a red light. Now there were 5 small lights in a triangular formation hovering and bobbing in front of the car. We watched it go out over the trees and slowly hover and make a jagged triangle shape over the landscape. Suddenly, all of the small lights came together to form one glowing orange light and the light came flying at an unbelievable speed towards the car and then disappeared into thin air a couple hundred yards away. I jumped out of the car and heard no sound other than our car. Truly unexplainable. Waited long enough to watch other planes pass over the same area and no planes moved or materialized like what we had seen.

Fulton, NY

We saw about 5 sort of circular orange-yellow lights in formation somewhat far away from each other all moving at the same speed. After a few minutes one of the lights appeared to drop a light from it that fell a bit and then disappeared. After about five minutes all of the lights disappeared at the same time. The lights were there when we pulled into the parking lot so we are unsure how long the event lasted.

5:55 today I was fishing with a mate on Bristol channel next to 7 bridge and we witnesses over 50 of the britest lights in a perfect line,appearing one at a time for must of been a warp hole of some sort because the was just appearing from the same place one at a time.it lasted for roughly 5mins. there was planes flying from Cardiff in the sky in the same direction which all made a u turn back.this wa scary due to so many in a sting of follow the leader as far as you could see in a perfect line, with more just appearing strate behind them.there was planes that taken off heading over us and when the UFOs started appearing one after eachother they turned back and sky's was clear 20 mind till a plane u never seen before hovered over the 7 bridge for 60seconds roughly then shot off in the direction they went it towards london.

Yarmouth, ME

It was a formation of tiny, pinprick-like lights very high up in the sky. They looked like stars, but were moving in a perfectly straight line. There were hundreds of them all following each other across the sky. They were not blinking but were alight. Imagine hundreds of small stars following each other in a perfect line. I, my sister, and our two friends saw this on a beach at night. The lights moved into our field of vision, across the sky, and out of it.

Portland, TX

I had recently started star gazing often at night because of a high occurrence of shooting stars in the area and sometimes in the early morning hours I would see satellites or space debris reflecting through the air. Recently Trump had threatened his nuclear weapon button was bigger in response to North Korea Nuclear tension via Twitter so my assumption for a while for what I had viewed that night was it was a defense test or Space-X Rocket Launch from the Brownsville, TX, location. I did not report this incident initially, as coming from a military family and having been educated in Mechanical Engineering, I assumed what I saw was a missile defense deflection test in preparation for any foreign nuclear attack. I walked outside and looked around the sky trying to allow my eyes to adjust to the darkness which would allow me to see stars and satellites easier as sometimes being next to a larger city the stars can be harder to locate. The night sky was clear enough from cloud coverage for me to be able to locate stars in any direction. About 2 minutes after being outside I noticed a group of 3 stars around 72 degrees east that were brighter than when my head had panned that direction previously. Now visually fixated on these objects, I noticed that the objects were tracking NE in regards to my position and phone compass. Being the large pessimist I am, I tried to downplay what I was seeing and assumed them to be air planes of some type. But there were no strobe lights or jet sounds so I thought these to be space debris for a moment. As a few seconds go by, I realize that it seems as if these equidistant 3 white orb objects are traveling in triangle formation. There roughly at abou! t 35 degrees upwards in relation to my point of view. Only about 10 or 15 seconds into the ordeal I made a split second decision not to go grab my phone (stupid) in a selfish act to keep watching the event unfold as I had never seen anything like this before but being someone well versed in mathematics and engineering was convincing myself with logical thinking what I was seeing was nothing to be excited about. Calmly, I watched at about 45 seconds into the entire event as a middle orb seemed to appear out of thin air. The objects began to track back towards the eastward direction slowly but changing directions simultaneously with each other moments after the arrival of the new orb. Remaining equidistant to the new object the three whitish orbs slowly started de-accelerating to a full stop in coordination with the new orb the air. Levitating there for a few more moments as the event reached the 1 minute mark. The original 3 orb objects at this time started moving around as i! f they were trying to push this new orb that appeared by directing themselves underneath the new orb. The original orbs were starting to move around the new orb erratically unlike anything I have ever seen before. Zig Zag patterns is the best description but staying equidistant from the new orb object. At this time I noticed strobe lights of airplanes coming from a local air force base heading towards the objects coming from the Southeast direction at 116 degrees. As the jets made it to around 75 degree east track the new orb surrounded by the original moving orbs started to glow orange slowly. Over a period of 20 seconds the new orb grew to be larger and larger and seemed to gain luminosity as bright as the sun in the night sky but only in that area of the sky. It looked like an atmospheric re-entry of a large object but the other objects around it seemed to speed up during this process. The orb toward the right of formation shot off faster than I have ever seen anything travel in my entire life. It covered around 6 inches of sky in less than! a 1 second span. I assumed this object was traveling mach 5 or 6 but there was no explosion or sounds. All I could hear were the jets at this time that were now approaching it within my range of view and most definitely theirs. It was obvious these jets were tracking these objects. The orb that traveled away from the formation went like a chord through a circle in regards to my visible atmosphere. In less mathematical descriptive terms, the object was like if you were to have shot a bullet through the top portion of an orange. The object was moving so fast it almost looked as a shooting star would have in regards to speed but this object was more gathered and had no comet tail or sparks. The new glowing orb faded and each orb slowly one by one flickered/disappeared from plain site. Whether these objects just traveled beyond the atmosphere slowly or not..they just vanished. After not being able to confirm that there was a space x launch and others in the area reported seeing the same thing I took it upon myself to report it. As a credible witness soon to earn a degree in Mechanical Engineering, with a minor in both Mathematics and Psychology… What I saw is definitely artificial. I would assume at this time it is advanced defensive or just raw technology possessed by the United States Government being it was so closely after the nuclear arms arguments. This is why I did not report it for a while but now I realize if it is an adversary that has the technology. These objects are being reported around US military bases frequently. Reports like this might be useful into tracking the origin. Regardless of my opinions..it does not change the visual event that occurred. So I decided to come forward with the report even though people usually are shunned for this type of thing.

Englewood, FL

Wife and I were driving on 776 just north of town of Englewood and we noticed three cross shaped objects flying in formation between 500 and 1000 feet in air. They appeared not to be moving fast at all if at all. They were white. Then we notice close to the three objects 4 objects appeared. As I asked her could they be skydivers but they were to low and I would say they were more of a aircraft. As she’s looked back she could not find them and appeared to be gone.

Riverton, WY

Northwest of Riverton, Wyoming, myself and a passenger saw 7 orange, and yellow lights in the sky. First we both thought they were airplanes, but one was near by and the like coming off of it was completely different. All seven lights we were watching we're moving around in a gyrating type motion. Eventually they started fading out one by one until they were all gone. Not the first time I've seen this personally in the area. Just unusual to see it from inside of town with all of the light pollution.

My girl friend and i seen this bright light in the sky on way back home when we arrived we relized it was alot lower and closer to hour house than expected as we pulled in it went from hovering not to much higher than tree tops to rapidly taken off. It looked about 30ft wide and 15ft long with 3 bright lights like a shallow pyramid shape of light formation

Price, UT

Approximately 9:30 pm on 12/9/18 my daughter said come outside quickly, my wife and I ran outside and looked up in the southwestern sky to see a formation of 8 bright flashing lights, orange in color in a flat formation traveling very slowly across the sky. Thought maybe it was a squadron of aircraft, but it made no sound. Also the last light in formation suddenly turned a very bright white then seemed to disappear. I have never seen anything like this in my 54 years. Again, I believe that this wasn't any type of aircraft. My daughter and wife tried to film it on their cell phone, and I with my slr, but didn't get any good images. Several other people were standing outside their vehicles trying to video the event also. Again this occurred over Price, Utah, southwest sky. Trying to find some news reports regarding this event.

Hurricane, UT

Noticed the stars twinkling a bit more one evening and stood and watched a second. Immediatly noticed a loooong line of twinkling white lights moving across the sky. The size of the stars more or less. The amount of them were able to stretch as far as i could see in both directions. Looked like a line of stars moving east to west. Towards St. George. Flying super close and low for how many of them there were. No sound. Noticed a report from almost exactly a year ago of the same sighting. What's up with this? Seems pretty explainable, but cant find any info on it.. Still plenty weird. Thank you! (( Possible military exercise??

Ganado, AZ

Approximately 2112 hours on Saturday, December 8, 2018, I was at work as an ER Physician (also 23 years experience USAF Flight Surgeon in helo operations Combat Search and Rescue) in the Sage Memorial Hospital ER in Ganado, AZ, about 65 miles west of Gallup NM, roughly at the intersection of Highway 191 and 264, when co-workers told me that they were seeing lights outside in the clear cold black night sky. They said they had first seen them when they called a patient to the nurse’s station, and the family said the patient was outside looking at lights. I immediately went outside and saw about 20 small lights about the size of a bright star, white in color, slowly blinking about 0.5 seconds on and 1 seconds off, independently, without co-ordination, in a loose long cluster estimated to be 0.25 to 0.5 miles long, moving together at varied, but maintained altitudes, at 25 to 30 degrees above the horizon at a distance of about 4 miles. They were roughly moving from Southeast to Northwest. Distance is only roughly estimated as there were very few objects for any frame of reference. Other people were standing close by, (and I tried to collect their impressions) and one person pulled up and hopped out his car and said he had seen them slowly headed this way for the last 5 to 10 minutes as he drove from Gallup, New Mexico, on Highway 264, west to Ganado, AZ. There was no discernable shape to any of the objects, as the objects were too far away to make out any details, and the hospital compound lights interfered with good visibility – think orangish halogen or mercury-vapor lamps. The objects passed behind the gym, a two-story structure about 100 yards away, at quite a distance behind the gym, more than one mile, for sure, and then headed North by Northwest with an inferred slight course change to the North. The objects could have been easily between 4 and 20 miles away, and distance estimation is unreliable due to night sky and! lack of any shape or moonlight. The lights looked independen! t in movement, blinking independently and similarly, and moving together, as in a formation. There was no noise, odor, or any other unusual phenomenon noted with their passage. They disappeared over the last 10 seconds of the sighting, quickly to the north, growing dimmer. The entire episode for me lasted 30 seconds. I have seen Air Force, Marine and Army helicopters do the same, but not in these numbers at night, nor in this remote location, and the objects passed silently. I would think a large formation of helicopters at night would be readily identified by their noise signature. About 2400 hours, one of the ER Techs noted that someone had posted info on Facebook of a similar sighting in the area around Chuska Mountain, NM, about 38 miles from Ganado, and that this sighting had occurred about 2100 hours, for a flight time of 12 min, resulting in a speed calculation of 190 miles an hour. This speed is much more in the range of military helicopters. The Facebook reference also has video attached, and the reference is: Facebook, Road Conditions Navajo Reservation Wide, D... C......: 3 hours ago, "Yooo anyone see all those blinking lights going over Chuska Mountain from Red Valley?" Scroll down to video posted by R...... D.... and this was what I saw. IF this was a military op, then it should be easy to verify. (( Possible military exercise??

Santa Fe, NM

My wife and I heard a low-level droning sound. After a couple of minutes, I went outside to our second story porch to see what it was. In a straight-line formation were blue/white lights that would go on and off periodically moving at a steady pace toward the west. Maybe a couple hundred feet up. No craft outline could be seen. They kept moving west until they were out of sight. Our neighbor has a hound dog that howls at anything strange but she did not howl at this noise, though we confirmed with the neighbor that she could hear the droning sound. Maybe military in origin? Heading possibly toward Los Alamos. (( Possible military exercise??

Rapid City, SD

Originally, I counted seventeen orange orbs that appeared to drift up from the southeast. From where I stood, it looked like these things climbed up into the night sky, way off to the south, towards Custer State Park. I watched as they drifted toward Keystone, and then angled somewhat toward the northwest, toward the Black Hills. Only, the second time I counted, there were twenty of them. The skies were overcast, but it wasn’t snowing like it had been earlier. The wind was calm, and the temperature hovered around 30 degrees Fahrenheit.

Stepped onto the back porch last evening, noticed three saucer-shaped craft traveling from south to north. These things were at some distance from me, two to three miles, at approximately three thousand feet. Objects were metallic in color, resembled aluminum. Definitely saucer-shaped, close to twenty feet in diameter, moved rapidly across the sky. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Oak Point, NY

On November 14th. With my son, I called out to him as I saw 8 orange moving dots in two sets of four. These were two groups of orange colored lights about 8 to 10,000 feet and maybe 10 miles away. The two groups were running in unison and were maybe 1500 yards apart – their movement appeared synchronized as the lights moved parallel to the earth’s surface. I watched them for 20 to 30 seconds and my son saw the tail end of the lights. The lights all dipped together and then simultaneously disappeared.

I usually always daze at the stars and always see these orange orbs, and I’ve never thought nothing of it because I’m a firm believer in UFO life forms and I’m in toon with a lot so I know it’s aliens but today was pretty weird it was seven or 8 orange orbs in a straight line and they started floating away and then they disappeared one by one then reappearing a few couple hundred yards away from where they were then they disappeared again this happened quick a spand of 10-16 seconds and I made a huge deal about it because I was with 2 of my friends and they were upset because they said I was trippin and they didn’t see them but I know what I saw and I know what I’ve seen before. I’m not sure if I’m the only that can see them so please if you see this as well reach out
