Panama City (Panama), Panama
An almond- (or oval-) shaped UFO in the sky in Panama City, Panama, was observed in a direction where no such object was observed for a whole two years prior to June 18, 2017. Proximity to building provided reference point that the craft was static. The object generated its own energy source as it was brightly lit. (It recalled a previous sighting in early childhood in South America observed by the entire neighborhood which also featured an object that was similarly lit. That object sat up in the sky but slightly higher than the horizon). This craft was located much higher up, possibly in the Earth’s upper atmosphere. But it was far closer than a satellite would have been and, again, it did not move. Stars that evening were also clearly seen and looked like distant dots. Object also appeared to have a rod-like shaft of light sticking downward out of its belly. It is not possible to tell whether it was a light beam or a solid part of the craft. The general impression was similar to that of a wasp in flight — except that the object did not move. Because the craft’s shape was elongated, it could have well been a transport vehicle. But it was too far up in the sky to make out any occupants. It also looked rather large. Observer does not know how long the object remained in place as it was only seen for an hour, after which the person went to bed. Observer has seen craft with the naked eye twice before but never in this same area or country. This object could certainly be described as having the broad characteristics of similar UFO. Observer went out the next evening and ascertained that no such object could be seen in the clear night sky. The object had vanished.

Waldport, OR
I was pulling into my driveway at approximately 23:45 on June 17th, 2017, so it was last Saturday. Right when I got out of the car, my neighbor came running over to me and asked me if I knew what the strange lights were directly above my house, so I looked up and saw these strange oval bright lights that were pulsating and zooming out and would then fly back in. They were a bright white and seemed to form a pattern. I have never seen anything like it in my life and my neighbor who is from Arizona, had never seen anything like it either. The lights appeared to be approximately 200 feet above my house. Then two days ago on June 23rd, 2017 my uncle who lives close by, was standing out on his deck with binoculars, and he said he could see two flying saucer like objects hovering above my house. One was approximately 50 to 200 feet above he thought and the other was directly above that one, about 500 feet above the roof of my house. They had red, orange and green lights on them and hovered there for about one hour. This occurred at about 23:45 again until about 1:30 in the morning. I was asleep during this time so I did not see them but my uncle called me to let me know. I have never experienced anything like this before and I have never studied UFO’s or been a watcher of them. I have recently moved to the Oregon Coast from the valley area of Oregon.

Port Barre, LA
Driving in an easterly direction, on Hwy 190 between Port Barre and Krotz Springs, I noticed two bright reddish orange objects in the sky. The objects were hovering over the tree line next to the westbound lane of Hwy 190. I turned off Hwy 190 onto Spillway Road and stopped my vehicle. I turned the engine off and got out so I could get a closer look and take some pictures. I'm not sure exactly how high they were hovering, but if it would have been drones, I would have heard them. We've had drones fly in this area and I can hear them when they fly at distances a lot further than these objects. It was totally silent, there was no humming or any kind of noise coming from that direction. The two objects hovered there until I got back in my vehicle. My husband was with me and he said he didn't hear any noise either. As we proceeded in a southerly direction on Spillway Road, the two objects slowly started to move apart from each other, but they were moving in the same direction as I was moving. The two objects basically stayed directly over the bayou that Spillway Road runs next to. As the objects kept a small distance behind us, but still moving apart from each other, they disappeared in the blink of an eye. We were about 1/2 a mile from our house when they disappeared. When I got home, I told my son and his friend what we saw and they said they had seen the two objects hovering in that same exact spot just about five minutes before us, when they were riding the fourwheeler. They confirmed this again when I showed them the pictures I took. It wasn't until I looked over the pictures and zoomed in for a closer look that I realized there were several lights on each object.

Pocono Lake, PA
Pocono Lake, Pa. June 12, 2017. 8:45 PM. While fishing from a boat on a lake, I saw a very long narrow streak of fire in the distant sky (almost like the fire shooting from a rocket ship in a 1950s science fiction movie). At first I thought it might be a shooting star, but the sky was still bright and it did not look like it was moving. I thought it might be a cloud reflecting a bright orange color in the setting sun light. After observing it for about 30 seconds, I realized it was actually moving very slowly towards me (no sound). It disappeared for a few seconds and then reappeared about few seconds later further to the right of where I first saw it and it was moving very slowly and going in the opposite direction from which I first observed it. It slowly started to fade and eventually disappeared. Note: The sky was very clear that night. There were only a few small clouds visible. I also considered that it might be a blimp but it appeared to be at too high an altitude than what I have seen blimps at. The object seemed to be very far away from me. That may explain why I could not hear any sound.

I tried to record the video but the moon distorted the video. After about 3 minutes, it slowly disappeared. It was not a cloud! For some reason, witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Anderson, CA
At about 10:15 A.M., I was talking to my neighbor outside on my porch, when I noticed high in the western sky a black orb looking object with luminescence. I then ran inside and grabbed my camera. The object was slowly moving south east, but stopped and changed directions several times, even moving north. There were times when it was not moving at all. It also seemed to cloak at times and bi-locate once (jump from one space to another) and there may have been a couple other white orbs in the vicinity. It's hard to describe the shape of this object, and I will let the video footage speak for itself. It was not a balloon because it was changing directions, stopping, appeared to cloak a few times, and was even motionless at times. My neighbor and I witnessed these strange aerial phenomena for about twenty minutes. They just seemed to vanish into thin air and disappeared out of site. I was unable to capture on video the other orbs because there were no background clouds for reference, so I couldn't see them in my camera. I was astonished at what I was seeing. The object just seemed to vanish in thin air as it was heading north. I have two video clips. The one with me talking is at normal speed. It is quite shaky, because I did not have a tripod. In the second clip, I slowed the video down two times and added a sound effect for entertainment purposes. You will see at 53 seconds, in the slow video, that the object appears to materialize out of thin air, or de-cloak. My neighbor was with me, but could not see the black object, but he claimed to see three others nearby.

Park City, UT
Approx 5 degrees right of our direct view near the peak of the mountain range, we saw what appeared to be a white or bright reflective capsule hovering in place. We took it to be a helicopter thought noticed immediately that there was no rear tail extension...only what could have been the passenger/pilot cabin. We discussed for 20-30 seconds, and then the object disappeared in an instant. Source of the report elects to remain anonymous; provides little contact information. PD

Round Lake, IL
The ovals began floating around, at one point very close to each other. Sometimes they would shine so bright it hurt my eyes, but for the most part they just looked white. The first one began flying away, until I could no longer see it. Soon after, the other flew off into the same direction.

Peoria, IL
Around about 11:41 pm, my friend and I noticed a red dot while on the highway. We decided to watch it further for a bit, thinking it was a plane but it remained stationary until we came close to a nearby lighted shopping center and saw that it flashed red and green. Upon entering the shopping center, one of the buildings blocked our view of it, and by the time we backed up so we could see it was about 3-5 miles away within a few seconds. We then proceeded to watch it until it disappeared miles away.

Kings Beach, CA
Object was elliptical in shape. Very bright white light shaped in the same design as the Ying & Yang symbol, but NO black, only WHITE. Two strobe lights, one at the 6 o'clock position, the other at the 9 o'clock position, started to blink after observing for 20 min.. Object first observed by myself and one other person, then two more people came by, but were not very interested. Object first observed in the Eastern sky, approximately 45degrees above horizon. Its size compared to the waxing gibbous Moon, three days from full Moon, was approximately 1/10. Object seemed to be stationary for 10 minutes, but then moved very slowly to the southern horizon, then moved as slowly to the northern horizon. After observing for 30-45 minutes through 100mm binoculars, object slowly faded out of sight. Object could be seen by the naked eye, but only looked like a bright white light. Extreme clarity when viewed through binoculars.

Reno, NV
At approximately 7:00 p.m., we observed a large oval light directly over our hotel near the Reno/Tahoe airport. The oval light appeared to move slightly and vary in brightness during our observation. We estimate the object to have been at least 50,000’ in altitude and possibly much higher. We estimate the size of the object to have been similar to a “tic tac” held at arm’s length. The weather conditions were clear, although very windy. The wind was blowing west to east at approximately 40 mph. We were facing due south and object could be seen at an approximately 70 degree angle above our position. It did not produce any sound. When we first noticed the object, the sun had not yet set, and the object was very large and very bright. We initially thought it could have been helicopter or drone hovering over the nearby I-580 freeway. However, this explanation was disproved when an airliner, flying at cruise altitude with the corresponding contrail, flew underneath the object. We continued to observe the object for approximately 40-60 minutes. As the sun set the light appeared to increase in altitude, dimming while doing so, and moving towards the east opposite the normal rotation of the earth and the rising moon/ stars. By the time the sun had completely set the light appeared to be a normal star in size and brightness. However, when I used the SkyView app on my phone the object did not correspond to any star, constellation, or satellite in the app’s database. I did manage to take one photograph of the light using my cell phone after numerous attempts. However, the photo is not as detailed as our view while looking at the object. We have no idea what it was.

I-95 (@ MM 54/55), SC
Hello! I am a Marine Veteran> At the present time I am a truck driver that go up and down the I-95 corridor from Daytona Bch. to North and South Carolina, on a weekly basis 4 times a week. On June 5, 2017, I was driving north on I- 95 on my way to South Charlotte, NC, to deliver goods at night time. As I was driving through mile marker 54-55 between 2:00 – 2:30 AM, When I saw a bright light coming from the west about 30* degrees on the night sky from my point of view level on the road, it was probably @ 10 to 12 K altitude. The object was bigger than a star, but smaller than a planet, and in comparison to a plane or jet lights, it was two (2) times bigger than those lights, it was solid with bright silver shine! It was not pulsating or blinking at all but it seems as it was in the shape of the sputnik satellite, I can say the craft was not the space station because I have seen the space station in many occasions and it did not look anything like it but also it was traveling at a lesser speed than the space station. The shape was not completely round but kind of oval and the two (I will call it probes) for a lack of a better word, Probes that had in the front also were shining with the whole craft; I was able to look at it for about two minutes and then could not see more because a tree line got on my way. What I will like to find out is if anyone else was able to see this that day?? Thank you! ((name deleted)) We spoke via telephone with the source of the report, and he sounded quite sober-minded to us. We suspect he is an excellent witness. PD

Carbondale, IN
It was a black oblong flying/hovering object, moving all directions, it would stop, go straight, then go sideways...then stopping and flying again, it would go stright up and down. It would fly straight then take wide curves. It would just take a 90 degree turns at a high speed and also straight 90 degree turns going up and down as well. Very odd flight pattern for a blimp. No wings. Broad day light very high in the sky just below the clouds. It appeared as of it were skimming just under the clouds. I took a picture of the Google map of our location as it started getting out of sight and it appears it may have been following the path of the river.

As my daughter and I forgot went out of the back door of our home to bring our dog inside, we saw a bright light directly over our area. We proceeded into debating about if it was a plane waiting to land at Sky Harbor, but it fooled us different. As we watched from our yard, the lights on the object turned orange, then brown, and back white. Shortly after the light changes, the object shot up in an upward motion incredibly fast and disappeared.

Red Glowing Fuzzy Shaped Oval Moving Steadily from SW to NE. It moved steadily and very slowly and I could not track it due to trees in my neighborhood blocking view. It lasted at my vantage point for about 30 seconds. It went from red to orange and back to red while being observed.

South Easton, MA
The object resembled a helicopter, an elongated silver object. It was dangerously low, directly above the treetops in yard. It flew over my home and my neighbor's home for about thirty seconds (two times). In terms of what it did, it simply flew over my home twice, and hovered over an area between my neighbor's house and mine. It never landed nor did anybody come out. A few hours later, the same object appeared, however, it was much higher and only flew once over my neighbor's home. They were not home at the time of this sighting. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

I reported this same exact siting about a year ago. The object is at the 2 o'clock position next to the moon. The object is an orb-shaped object that is metallic, reflecting sun light. It is not moving at all. I expect it will remain all afternoon as it has this morning. My wife and daughter also witnessed it. I can see it with the naked eye but appears to be very high up in our atmosphere. Tried taking a pic but was not able to get a good quality shot.

It wasn't too visible with the eye at the moment. I only noticed 2 days after as I re checked my photos to post them up on facebook. Behind me in a photo is what seems to be a ufo submerging into the Hudson River behind me. Idk what it can be, my friends who dont believe say its a reflection from a building or the water. I believe I caught something extraordinary and unbelievable, who knows what lies out there!

Bright light hovering in our field for about a minute not to far in the distance, then disappeared right in front of our eyes.
