Went to smoke my bedtime cigarette, went to end of large garden, laid on the grass and as I do, I look up as the stars in Kent aren't the same (visiting my parents btw) I've been caught to very high altitude, low continuous glow of a line moving in the sky, as both eyes locked on and I focused, there it cleared to 8-10 very distinctive yet very faint dots in a solid single lined formation moving over the sky's, too high to be birds at this time, flightrader has nothing of the sort and I was mesmorised by these objects which then frazzled out as the outer skys brighter than when I locked on to begin with. If it wasn't Military (which don't fly weekends here, nor a drop to land at that altitude, etc., is veeery unlikely. My staffy Bailey even decided to whine to go in, (almost waking the parents!)

Lampe, MO
Singular glowing orb, thought initially to be Venus, relatively low in the sky to the ESE. Looked to be located over or near Hollister, MO. Orb slowly drifted down and then separated neatly into 4-5 smaller orbs which drifted down toward the horizon. Total time about 45 sec... Saw two A-10 Warthogs flying over same approximate area earlier in the day.

Titusville, FL
There were 3 separate objects moving at a high rate of speed just above the clouds. Following each other one about 2 minutes in front of the other. Traveling from South to North. They were each identical; glowing orange, like a ball of fire, containing 2 alternating flashing colored lights

Vale do logo (Portugal) · Portugal
We didn't know who to report this too I highly doubt anyone that didn't witness it would believe it anyway. My husband and I don't believe in aliens but we ran out of logical reasons for what we witnessed last night. We're on holiday in Portugal and my husband called me outside last night quickly because he'd seen something. He pointed up to the sky and immediately I saw what he was talking about. It looked like what I could only describe as at least 100 'stars' all moving the in same direction across the sky, about the speed of a plane. They all flashed on and off in regular intervals but individually. So they didn't all flash at the same time but they were all flashing. We saw them move across the night sky until it was too far away to see them any more. I tried to video it but it didn't show up on my phone camera.

Yosemite National Park, CA
Witnessed 3 bright objects moving from southeast to northwest in a perfect triangular formation for 10 minutes over the Yosemite area. Objects estimated altitude-stratosphere. 6 other identical objects passing over Yosemite from the same direction Cingularly or side by side over 30 minute time span. One object crossed the sky oscillating, when another object in red hue appeared from nowhere and passed in front of the oscillating craft.

Calgary (Canada), AB · Canada
I was getting back into my car from grabbing a coffee at Tim Horton's… I was facing SW Calgary and noticed some aircraft off in the distance flying in formation. The head formation broke off and headed in a NE direction, the crafts (5) then started to perform aerial stunts, dodging each other, moving erractically up and down. The trailing crafts (3) continued northly for another 20 secs or so, and then headed in the same direction. Grabbed my iphone to record event, which I thought I caught, but with the glaring sun on my screen, I never saw that the phone was not actually recording. These craft appeared to be moving at a high rate of speed (similar to what I have seen at airshows) and probably were 10-15 km from my viewing point. During one of its manuevers, it tilted up and it looked to be almost all wing no real tail or body...wing appeared whitish in the middle with dark grey on the ends. I panic a bit at this point, thinking I had the event on video. I got my car and drove off in the opposite direction.

Denver, CO
At first I thought it was just a flock birds, but then this plane passed right by the objects and that's when I knew they couldn't be birds. Reasons being, as soon as the plane passed by these objects got so close to each other creating like a wall and quickly moved out the way of the plane. During this time the objects also change from their white color to a black color as if they felt in danger by the plane. After the plane was out the frame these object continued to fly in abnormal directions in the sky. I filmed them for about a minute and half before they finally just fanished into thin air. The crazy thing is I saw two objects similar to these object about 4 days ago and also filmed it. I dont know what they are but when I zoomed in to the objects they definitely weren't anything I have ever seen. They were round with like two long black I guess poles at the top and bottom of the objects. After everything happened. I went back inside my building and for some reason I felt really angry and agitated. I felt this way for about 5 minutes. I hope I can spot some more UFOs in the future.

Colorado Springs, CO
Ok so i was living in Colorado springs CO in an apartment close to NORAD base and on that night me and my boyfriend were laying in bed and my 5 year old child wanted to sleep in there with us so he was next to the bed on his new sleeping bag. I had the window open and the door cracked shut. There was a full moon so there was a good amount of light coming in and the wind was blowing so the door was kind of banging so i was kind of zoned in looking at the door thinking should i close it all the way when suddenly this shadow creature that was darker than night shot out from the corner at the door and moved faster than anything ive ever seen into the other corner and disappeared into the other corner. It was a shadow from a car or anything like that it definitely was some kind of shadow creature. My 5 year old jumped on the bed his heart was racing and my boyfriend turned to me and asked "did you see that? What was that?" I was like "o don't know?! " But all i got was this feeling of dread. It only stood maybe 4 feet and was darker than the night. I moved from that apartment not long after that and there was other things that happened before but i kind of ignored it but after that i was gone. It was too creepy and scary for me to live there and after that i kept all lights on all the time.

Bremerton, WA
I am a 47 year old female. I live in a military based town. I was driving across town with my friend, following a Bingo session, approx 11:30 pm. I was not at all tired, drunk or medicated at the time I witnessed this mysterious object. My vision is good, I have no history of unusual mental behavior, and I am not yet senile. My neighbor was my passenger at the time. We both saw the same thing. It was a large object or a cluster of objects floating across the night sky. It traveled slowly towards us steady at a low level yet still a good distance above city power poles. Its shape shifted continuously looking unbalanced. My best description of what it looked like would be similar to a huge group of balloons tied together w/ each containing its own glowing light, glowing brightly of green/white. No blinking lights or sound. I continued to drive, losing site of it due to the trees. A few minutes later I drove back to the area stopping at a gas station to look for the! object. The object was not seen again. It was a "Strawberry Moon" that night. It was very large and bright. There were clouds passing/hiding view of the moon off and on, no rain w/ slightly gusty winds.

Prescott Valley, AZ
6-10 small "airplanes," flying from the south from Phoenix all in a straight line, hovered, then suddenly dispersed in all directions. Prescott Airport workers report, "Work at the airport and there were no special air operations scheduled for tonight." Others report, "When I first saw them, they looked like a stacked configuration seemed to take forever to get near, then they were more strung out some sort of night maneuvers I suppose, guess it was not an invasion I saw eight, maybe 10". Others reported, "They were all hovering over a field across from my house. They we're together the whole way then after a few min they all separated going different ways. We counted 17 total." and "It looked like they came from a field, flew around a little, and hovered over it, then left going different directions." Multiple reports with multiple photos having been taken. I have at least two.

Parker/Aurora, CO
Occurred : 6/7/2017 4:45pm Reported: 6/8/2017 Posted: Location: Parker/Aurora, CO Shape: 3 darker objects each with lights Duration: 5-10 minutes Moving 3 darker objects spotted between approx. Parker/Aurora (perhaps Smokey Hill area) area over E-470 from person in Parker/Franktown – video and video screen captures available. Every so often, objects would rotate and project beam of light. Perhaps 10-15 miles away from viewer. Objects spotted and perhaps 10 mins total observation. Speculation the objects were there before viewer spotted them initially. Objects initially appear to be somehow connected as they undulated together in the sky as if they were connected, but later one of the objects broke pattern with the other two and did its own maneuver and then returned to the other two, and then the three of them continued maneuvers together. Due to the undulating pattern, it is not thought they were just one object such as a dark plane with three lights (since one did separate from the two and then later rejoin) since the viewer has witnessed planes heading to or from DEN as the viewer knows the flight path over e! ast of Parker Road and basically down E-470 to DEN. Objects went higher in elevation, lower in elevation, east, west, north, and south – moving further away and then closer in several different patterns, some looping, some more block-style in nature. Ball lightening ruled out since ball lightening doesn’t last this long. Total movement from time noticed until they disappear into the passing storm that was hitting Aurora area at this time was maybe 10-30 miles. This seems too far for a controlled drone or drones and drones don’t seem to be able to fly in unison like objects. Drones also don’t seem to have such bright lights as object were maybe 10-15 miles away. Objects did not appear to be metallic, but some kind of darker material, so doesn’t resemble photos seen of weather balloons, and weather balloons don’t seem to have lights or ones that were so bright as the objects did. Objects were making various loops, appearing to stop in mid-air, rapidly going from left/right (West/East) but were generally following either an Easterly or North-Easterly direction. During this same time, a large storm with hail, rain and lightning was passing from West to East north of the viewers position with the objects between the viewer and the storm. If this was under human control, why were these maneuvers being carried out extremely close to a monster of a storm? The viewer cannot think of any plane, drone, etc that can make such maneuvers. iPhone 6 video was captured (2 min 45 sec) in zoomed in mode. No rain at time. Video shows birds flying around and trees for perspective. Video is a bit shaky. There was no water on the camera since it was not raining yet when the video was taken. Viewers voice can be heard on video wondering what they are. Objects were seen by viewers eyes and captured on video. Still images are taken from the captured video since the video is somewhat shaky.

Pearisburg, VA
I've never seen anything like it, one object like a moving star came directly down and stopped. Then the star released more, until there was like 10 spinning around in a circle, faster and faster. Then I woke up. Not like a dream well it was like a dream, but I woke up from reality. I guess, there was no evidence nor sightings after that. If you don't believe me, i understand. We suspect this is a hoaxed report, but we cannot be certain. PD

Dresden (Germany) · Germany
I took two night shots of the Semperoper building in the Theaterplatz of Dresden, Germany on June 2. Later that night as I was looking at my photos, I noticed these lights in the sky. I first saw the ones from 10:06pm and then realized that they also appear in the earlier shot at approx.10:04pm. The shots were taken with a new camera, a digital SLR. I did not notice the lights as I was taking the photo, as I was so focused on the beauty of the building. We were traveling and have just returned home to Pennsylvania. I will send the photos by email. I have been wanting to get an opinion about what these could be. Thank you! Several very high-quality photos were submitted with the report, but we believe the objects, seen against a clear, nighttime sky, are lens flares. PD

Jacksonville, FL
It was moving quickly west. Seemed to pulse and change shape with regular intervals. Object appeared to have a circular force field around it almost like heat distortion in a transparent circle around it. The circle of distorted air shifted and was not there the entire time. It was completely silent. No lights, no sound. Object was mesmerizing. Object looked very complex, no reflection, not "metallic" looking. Flat and almost back. Morphing 3 objects and then into one solid straight line, over and over as it flew by overhead.

West Lakeland, MN
Low flying small lights came one after the other from far over the horizon moving from southwest to northeast. All followed generally same path. Moved at medium speed. Lights looked like mini afterburners but made no sound. Were not drones. Two of the lights seemed to "turn-off" their lights, as I moved through the yard to film them.

Comstock Park, MI
I was leaving to go to Walmart at 5:15 and to east of me there were this extremely bright light with beam shooting downwards about 100 feet. There was either other craft of this was very large as there were about 4 more white lights at about 30 degree down angle on right side. It was completely motionless and emitted no sound. I would guess altitude was about 1000 feet. I went to Walmart, about 8 blocks west of my residence and could see it very plain from their parking lot. It was still motionless with all same lights. I spent about 7 minutes in Walmart buying 3 items and came out and it was there still. As I got to my car another shopper was coming out. I asked him if he saw white light(s) motionless in sky. He agreed he did. I said I have never seen anything like this or what could be construed as UFO. He said he didn't believe in them and left. I went home and searched for binoculars (which I had once) but could not find them. I did not have! camera with zoom lens either. The Light(s) were still there and just as bright. I check whole sky horizon and saw few dim starts but NOTHING as bright as this or as many. Daylight was just starting to happen and brightness of light(s) did not change at all. Few stars I saw were gone now. I went downstairs and turn on my computer and came back up in about 10 minutes and it was all completely done. When I was at Walmart I remember hearing plane to my extreme west and that sound went away. This did NOT have any sound. If it was any kind of chopped the rotor wash I would have heard easily, as it seemed only about 1 mile away.

Minneapolis, MN
Seven of us were hanging out on our rooftop deck and I pointed out two lights above us behind the fast moving clouds. We couldn’t tell if the lights were moving slowing for about 5 minutes and then stopped, or was stationary the entire time. For about 20 minutes the lights remained still as we watched them dim and brighten behind the moving clouds. We could see a faint third light which created a triangular formation. However, the photos suggest there may have been more lights than what we could see by eye. Heavier clouds rolled through and, once cleared, the lights were gone. About 20 minutes after the light formation disappeared, we saw a very bright aircraft fly overhead. We all agreed it was an airplane, yet it did appear to be much brighter, faster and and closer than what we typically see in the area. Our condo is directly under a flight path and we also acknowledged that no airplanes had been seen since we first noticed the lights. Then this morning (the next day), I was reviewing our photos from the evening and noticed a single green formation on my friend’s left shoulder. It appears on the chest of the person sitting next to him in a different photo. Attached are photos of the formation we saw in the sky and a zoomed in photo of the pattern on my friend. 20:04 Photos of friends 21:30 Noticed two lights in the sky 21:41 Photos of lights. The witness provides a number of high-quality photographs. The green objects, seen against the arm and shoulder of one of the people present, suggests to us that there is a flaw in the camera. The other lights appear to us to be reflected from the bottoms of clouds, which suggests advertising lights, although we cannot be certain. PD
