Indianapolis, IN
On Fourth of July, 2018 in northern Indianapolis, near Fox Road, and the Marion-Hamilton County line, and Geist Reservoir, at about 1 p.m., I walked into my wide backyard and glanced up. Small, dense white clouds were traveling in a northeastern direction beneath a beautiful blue sky. I was following them across the sky when I noticed that one very large cloud to the near northwest, the exact same color as the rest, was stationary. The big cloud was gently moving, like bubbling or slowly percolating in place, and was thinner or wispier along the edges. The smaller clouds traveled northward above and beside it. Then I focused on something I wasn’t prepared to see. The big cloud was mostly concealing an enormous craft that was not moving. The first impression was of the nose of a cruise ship peeking out of a cloud. The craft’s skin was smooth with no external appendages. Its color was a pale, washed-out, non-reflective gray. There was no sound. There were no lights or lamps. The vessel was close enough that it felt as though I was looking upward from the bottom of a tall cliff. The part of the craft I could observe looked like a 3-layer cake. The top tier was the smallest and had no openings. The second level was deeper and wider, rounded on the end, and had about four black, vertically rectangular openings or portholes that were wider at the bottom. Other openings were probably cloaked or masked by the cloud. The black openings were the most impressive part of the craft and felt ominous, like windows or observation ports. The third layer was wider still and had no openings that I could see. The bottom of this level, and whatever was below it, was concealed by the bubbling cloud. The craft was immense. I have brainstormed the event and tried to measure the vessel with imaginary football fields. It is at least 300-400 meters across at its widest point, assuming that it is symmetrical. I entered and exited my home twice and can vouch that this thing was there for at least 5 minutes. The second time I left the house, it was gone. For various reasons, I did not take a photograph and kept silent for over two years. I have repeatedly brain-stormed the event in order to flesh out this description and make the most accurate possible drawing.

Dutch Harbor, AK
I am a 73 year old Vietnam Marine vet. Presently I don’t drink or due any drugs nor have I ever had an addition to those vices. I have never observed a UFO until I took several pictures with my Sony ax7 camera mounted on a tripod from my room at the Grand Alution Hotel. It was a full moon night with a great view of the harbor. Without adjusting or moving the camera I took several shots. Only in 4 pictures out of 8 did these blue/green saucer images appear. They were faint at first but came closer and traveled from a clouded area and to the left. I will send you the sequence of photos so you can evaluate them and please let me know if this is really a UFO sighting?

Welland (Canada), ON · Canada
Went outside to watch the fireworks. Looked up in sky and there was a glowing halo like disc shaped object bright whitish yellow. It appeared to react to the fireworks and flashed between red and green lights while the fireworks were going on. As if communicating or reacting. Called in to my mother and she couldn't believe it when i pointed it out to her and she asked me what it was. Later on when driving home ~01:30 there were 3 craft in the night sky in different locations. They were heading south and south west. My mom witnessed this too. Freaked her out. They appear to be yellowy white in colour (hottest temp indicator) and stationary with a orbital halo around all of them. They are also jerky in their movements and can move quickly. Saw one the night prior hovering in the night sky over Port Colborne. It was the same. It is not a weather balloon. It was really weird.

I took photos not realizing there was a UFO. But on closer inspection it was there clear as day hovering in the same spot above the road I was driving on out in a vast field. It wasn't moving it was just hovering and I was maybe 2 miles away from the Sacramento Airport. There are a few questionable buildings around the facility I work at I may add.

Marco Island, FL
I was on a dinner boat cruise on June 28th, 2018, on Marco Island in Florida. I was actually just taking a picture of the storm clouds and noticed a couple weeks later these bright lighted disk shaped objects. I enlarged the photo I took and was amazed at the 7 UFO's that were captured. There is also a string of lights double row just below where the UFO's were flying. The best way to show you is to forward my pictures and would be thrilled to submit to the address below. We believe they are reflections of ceiling lights. PD

Vancouver, WA
I was on my way to the store about to get into my car around the time 23:35 when all of a sudden I look in the sky and I see something that looks like a saucer with the very vivid colors which were a clear blue and a pinky reddish color spinning in circles.

Jackpot, NV
I took what I thought was a photo of myself lounging by the pool at Horseshu Hotel & Casino to capture my holiday. The photo was taken facing West. When I went to post it I noticed it was actually a short live video. In one split second/frame of the video a large craft appears. It just shows itself like a blip. Black and angular - looks like some sort of craft and appears to be larger than than the two story water tower in the background. I was by myself when it happened and when I showed it to the hotel staff it was all they could talk about. Almost looks like a plume of something is coming out from below - silver on top with a shadowy dark bottom. Made no sound when it appeared.

Saskatoon (Canada), SK · Canada
I was sitting in a downtown Saskatoon park listening to bands from our local jazz festival on Saturday evening. But I was also keeping an eye on the weather, as there were thunderstorms in the forecast and the clouds had begun to look threatening. At about 9:30 pm or so, I was watching one dark cloud rolling in, nearly overhead. As I watched, for a brief moment I saw what appeared to be the leading edge of a disk-shaped object protrude at about a 45 degree angle from the base of the cloud. I saw it for less than a second, but it appeared as though it were a solid object with rectangular or square raised areas or panels. Then it was suddenly shrouded in the outline of a dark cloud. Imagine a disk parallel with the ground dipping forward to poke through the clouds, resembling a flattened smile. The dark cloud followed the general outline of the that I had just seen. I though perhaps that I may have simply seen a cloud and my mind played tricks on me. But I kept watching it. Over the course of the next 45 minutes or so, the curved dark cloud remained stationary, even as the stormcloud and other clouds in the sky moved steadily westward. It also stayed the same shape and size, even as the other clouds grew changed shape. Still, I was more or less convinced I was watching some sort of weather phenomenon. Around 10:15 pm, I watched the thin dark cloud slowly wheel in a clockwise direction, taking about 30 seconds to turn about 90 degrees from its original orientation (imagine a disk now perpendicular to the ground, with the bottom edge protruding through the clouds). Then, it slowly slid to the southeast and retreated into the lighter stormclouds, even as those other clouds were still drifting westward on the wind. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Possible disk, but wouldn't rule out meteorological phenomenom (addendum) Addendum to my report sent a short while ago: I forgot to give a description of the apparent size of the object (or whatever it was). The phenomenon occurred at about 40 - 50 degrees above the horizon. Given the low cloud cover, it would have been relatively nearby. The length of the visible portion of the dark object (or cloud) was about equal to the width of the palm of my hand held at arm's length. Its width would have been about as wide as my index finger held at arm's length. As I first sighted it, my initial impression was that it somewhat resembled the leading edge of the saucer section of the USS Enterprise from the 1960s original Star Trek series - a disk with a blunt leading edge. That is one reason that I thought I might have imagined it. It was dark, metallic gray in color. Given the curvature of the object or cloud that I watched for about 45 minutes, if it was part of a disk, the visible portion would have been about 1/8 to 1/12 of the circumference. The rest, if it really was disk shaped, would have been above the base of the clouds. ((END ADDENDUM))

Buffalo, NY
I took a series of photos from my bedroom window down buffalo, NY, because the sky was beautiful. 4 photos were taken one after the other with my android phone at 9:13 pm, June 19th, 2018. On June 29, I looked for the photos I'd taken as reference for a painting using the colors of the sky, that's when I saw the unusual light anomaly in the sky. There was no light behind me, I did not notice anything in the sky when I took the photo. One photo shows an image of a small source of light, backed by an evening sky. We do not know what the light is, but do not have enough information, we believe, to be able to conclude that it is an authentic alien spacecraft. PD

While trimming a tree in yard, witness observed object to appear directly overhead. He only observed the bottom of the object. It was a disc and it had visible structures of concentric rings and spokes coming from the center. The rings and spokes formed segments that were colored gold, silver, and a luminous yellow-like quality that he found especially difficult to describe. It appeared below the clouds and appeared to be quite large, though he reportedly had no visual reference with which to compare it. It appeared suddenly, made no sound, made no movements, and disappeared just as suddenly after about 5 seconds. For being so anomalous, his reaction to seeing the object was one of brief puzzlement. He felt no fear or shock and simply returned to his chore. He thought about it as he worked and considered it a hallucination of some sort. However, he had never hallucinated before and the object had such a quality of being "present" that he found it ! hard to categorize it as a hallucination and said nothing of it to anyone and simply thought about it for some time before deciding to make the report.

South Kingstown, RI
On approximately June 4th, 2018, at 00:30-1:00. As I was driving home on route 1 towards my home in Green Hill Rhode Island, coming from my girlfriend's house, I saw a bright light flash across from sky to my left, I didn’t think much of it until. I look to my left and there is a disk shaped object with four large bright yellowish lights following me over the trees on the other side of the highway. I got pretty freaked out and stopped on the highway and it stopped as I did. I decided that it’d be better if I kept driving home all the while it was still following me. After about 7 minutes I got to my exit and it shot across the highway and flew out of sight. I am a 19 year old cook at a restaurant near my house, also I am an Eagle Scout. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

This UFO was spotted by my sister, initially. We were shocked. The third person was my grandma. She was not that spontaneous! I feared in thought of getting abducted! It was literally so close, watching us.

Rio Rico, AZ
At approximately 8:30 to 8:45 p.m. on Thursday May 17, 2018, I was in my backyard in Rio Rico, Arizona. I was on the phone with a friend from San Diego. I witnessed several strange anomalies in the western sky while I was on the phone with her. Things like, what looked like silvery/white lights that at first I thought were airplanes but could not possibly have been because they were not blinking. Solid light. They were stationary for periods of time and then would move up, down, then move in a straight line then move diagonally and up and down then completely disappear like someone flipping a light switch. This went on for around 30 minutes on and off. At around somewhere between 9:00 to 9:30 p.m., the unthinkable occurred. I had my eyes fixated on the more North Western part of the sky, and it was very dark out because the new moon had already dipped below the horizon, but several stars were visible in the night sky, and in the EXACT location where my eyes were looking, a huge, I mean GARGANTUAN formation of lights appeared in a long BAND. It just appeared as though, again, someone had flipped a light switch. Like, it was not there and then suddenly THERE! It seemed extremely close to me, like no more than a football field away up there. It was stationary, did not move from its location, however, it did many odd things that will be difficult to describe, but I will try. The object was perfectly visible to me and the experience lasted, to the best of my recollection, for about 10, maybe 12 or so seconds. A rather long time! During this time, the following occurred very quickly: The band of lights looked somewhat like an engagement ring, with a big light in the center and three slightly smaller lights on either side for a total of 7 lights. They were perfectly visible and SQUARE…but perhaps not entirely square, more on the rectangular side, yet almost square. Then…the band of lights did a really odd “morphing” type of thing (for lack of a better way to describe it), where it seemed to become “one” long band of light for a split second and then when it returned to separate rectangles again, the object seemed CLOSER to me. It did this 3 times and on the 3rd time, it seemed ever so much closer to me than when it appeared the first time and I CLEARLY saw a slight shadowy structure around the rectangular band of lights! But it had no color…just a darkness that seemed to fill in the spaces and it looked very “saucer-like” in an obscure way. THEN...I became acutely aware that it was aware me ME, all in a couple of seconds of time before it did the fol! lowing: each of the lights blinked of and on in a nonsensical way, then all of the lights were back on and then in a flash, it completely disappeared. I used to listen to a lot of Linda Moulton Howe back in the day, so I immediately had the presence of mind to assess how large the object would be if I held something in between my thumb and index finger and stretched my arm out as far as it could go, up against the night sky. So, if you had one of those clear plastic Bic Pens, with the blue cap on, and took the cap off, and held it in the aforementioned manner, THAT is how big this damn thing was! It was HUGE. One more tidbit: Last year, in 2017, at around the same time of year as I recall, my husband and I saw a LOT of anomalous activity in the very same sky where we lived then, and now. I had another experience with the same kind of “engagement ring” band of light, but it was fully in the Western sky as opposed to the NW. But, this band was only 5 lights and they were a fiery brilliant orange color. The ones from last night were totally white. And like last night, the experience from last year also caused me a strange feeling of “it is aware of me” because it was coming towards me, just like last nights experience. To conclude, I know a few people in this area, who have also seen many strange anomalies in our Rio Rico Arizona skies. I did not report last years events. But the one that happened last night was so huge and so blatant and so incredibly amazing that I felt I really needed to share it. It is a couple of days later as I write this and it is still bothering me to know that I saw what I saw. I feel very strange. It made absolutely no sense at all. It left me with the feeling that something had occurred on an inter-dimensional level. There was no sound. My mind does not know how to process this. Thank you for your time and consideration. PS! A side note I almost forgot to include! I tried to film it with my iPhone, but the video button portion was completely missing! I tried to use the photo feature, but when I pressed it NOTHING HAPPENED! I quickly gave up because I did not want my eyes to miss anything. After the event was over, and my poor friend on the other end of the line had to listen to me kind of freaking out and asking me a ton of questions about what was happening, the camera feature in my phone would still not work at all and the video button was still missing. After I ended the call, I rebooted my phone and still, the video portion of my phone’s camera was NOT THERE…and nothing worked. At bedtime, at around midnight, I plugged my phone into the charger and fell asleep. I had a horrible nightmare about the event and when I woke up, it was the first thing on my mind. When I unplugged my iPhone from the charger, the first thing I did was go straight to my camera and lo and behold, the video ! button had returned and everything worked as normal. Just FYI!

Was bird watching with my daughter, when I looked up (without binoculars) and saw a “classic” description of a UFO, moving rather slow. When I started trying to get my daughters attention to look, it just disappeared. Within seconds of seeing this two jets went through the sky, right where I saw the craft.

Curlew, WA
Hello, three pictures were taken in Curlew, WA, on Wednesday afternoon May 9, 2018, by my grandson (19 yrs. old). He said he ran outside to take pictures of the rainbow. He took 3 consecutive shots on his cell phone camera. He sent the pictures via text to me as he knows I love rainbows. He said he was amazed at what he saw other than the rainbow. Two other people were with him and witnessed the event. Note the white disk shaped object to the right above the rainbow. The second photo shows it again. In the third photo it is gone. He said, "I was just taking pics of the rainbow and it showed up out of nowhere. It wasn't even there for two seconds before a muffled hum and like that it was gone". Note the two white disks in the distance above the green dumpster's top left corner--follow the treeline up the hill. Those two disks are not in the first two photos. I don't know what those are but sure would like to find out. Please take a look and see what you think and let us know. These pictures are incredible! [the 3 photos have just been sent from my email account separate from this submission as]

Around 9:30 pm, I was at the car, putting my shopping bag, in the trunk, and happened to look up. I saw an object go your over the car, that at first I thought was a falling star, as I saw one a few weeks ago. I continued to stare up at it and it kept fly past. It was very high up, so it couldn't have been a satellite, nor a drone. It was completely silent, had two discs on the left side with a space between them, and one about the middle of the two other discs. The discs were not lit, but kind of a reflective beige color. I watched until it disappeared, which was fairly quickly. This object was traveling East, coming from the West, and traveling in a straight, calm line. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) I just submitted this claim, but realized I wrote it was very high up, I would like to edit that. It was NOT very high up. Thank you for your time. CORRECTIONS It was traveling low, from West to East in a straight calm line, completely silent. No lights, but looked kind of like a reflective beige color. A total of three (3) discs, two on the left side with a space in between, and one disc on the right side, positioned about center of the other two (2) discs. Around 9:30 pm, I was at the car, putting my cloth shopping bag in the trunk, and happened to look up. I saw an object go over the car, at first glance I thought it was a falling star, as I saw one a few weeks ago. I continued to stare up at it and it kept flying past. It wasn't very high up, so it couldn't have been a satellite, or a drone. I watched it until it disappeared, which was fairly quickly. ((END ADDENDUM))

My friend and I were hanging out at the local library. When we were just about to leave, myself and my friend saw this flying craft in the sky. It had three flashing lights on each side and we didn't see a driver, but we knew it was in the somewhere. It hovered in place for a bit but then started moving. We ran after it as long as we could but a few minutes later it disappeared from the sky. We haven't seen anything strange since then.
