My husband & I saw this object so clearly. We live by the airport, so this is very strange indeed! We were outside when I spotted 1 oddity in the sky. It was on Wednesday August 30 2023 at approximately 7 pm. I pointed & asked my husband if he could see the object? He said Yes! It was like a white chunky tic tac/capsule shape. It had many propellers around the center with a "sheer-like" quality. It was moving silently, at a fast pace. I ran to the end of our driveway, to try & capture pictures. I zoomed in & couldn't see it in my camera phone, it had disappeared. It was there one second & gone the next. Now we are watching the sky more often. My husband & I do not drink or do recreational drugs. It's fair to say, that we thought twice about reporting this, due to the possibility of ridicule. However after conversing, we felt it could be of importance. Thanks for your time.

Orange Beach, AL

A strange white cloud moving low and fast was spotted over ocean. It looked like a white school bus shaped object inside a cloud. It all moved as one. I grabbed my phone as it changed shape into a swirling pattern. Then the front became a reflective triangular object. The triangle shot off in the blink of an eye, leaving the cloud part behind. The cloud stopped moving, turned grayish, and slowly disappeared.

I am in the forest, the nearest is newark, NOTTINGH · United Kingdom

I was sitting down and then I looked at the sky and I saw two cigar shaped ufos flying past each other, completely white, no wings, nothing to show that it was an airplane. I didn’t hear any noise from the engine and it was clear something extraterrestrial was happening.

Spanish Springs, NV

Was driving up Delores, about a quarter mile from Starhill Way in Spanish Springs when I spotted a low flying, highly reflective, silver disc come over there mountain ridge to the southwest. Kept eyes on for about a minute and a half. Looked down to call home as it was flying over my house and when I looked up it was gone. No wings or propellers. Very visible and low.

St. Louis, MO

At 37000 ft. Over Missouri saw 3 to 4 lights rotating around each other. The lights would fade and dim. Tracked the sighting for 100s of miles. Also saw 2-3 shooting star like objects in the same vicinity. The rotating lights were east of the Big Dipper.

West Branch, MI

Watching for the Blue Moon on 08/29/23. Clear sky so I was star watching. I saw what I think was a satellite going South to North. It was in location of Big Dipper. Watching some dim Stars above the Big Dipper I noticed a Star flash. I watched this dot size object flash pure White. This object kept getting bigger. It looked like it was coming in from outer space. It did not come from N, S, E, or West. It came straight down from the Sky! It kept getting closer towards earth and it would Flash pure white. It would Flash about every 10-20 seconds as it got closer. It started looking rectangular & the Flash reminds me of a rocket slowing down its decent to Earth. As it got closer it was a rectangular object with a Real White Bright bottom that lit up the whole bottom of Object. I could not see the top of the object only the bottom. I could only see it when it flashed. The bottom was rectangular & the ends of the rectangle were on an angle tilted up from the bottom about 30 degrees. When it got closer to Earth it slowed down & went North of my location. No sound at all from such a big object. I've seen objects in the Skies above my property Before but nothing like this. I could relate this to anything I have ever seen in my life & I am 63! First time I could say it maybe an Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon! I see a lot of planes, Black Hawks, Chinook helicopters being fairly close to Grayling Military Base. This was a UFO!

Port Angeles, WA

The cube that appeared to have landed high in the mountain above IBC Church in port Angeles was immediately followed by huge spotlights scanning the mountainside. I smelled the smoke for about 2-3 minutes after I saw the object and there was lots of activity where it appeared to have landed. Lots of lights and despite the activity it was so quiet it was nerve wracking. I’m not one to believe in UFO sightings but I know what I saw and it wasn’t normal every day occurrence. I hope I’m not the only one who witnessed this.

El Dorado Hills, CA

While driving on US-50 eastbound, right at the end of Folsom City and before the sign of El Dorado County line, saw a very bright/white descend very fast from my right to left. As it got closer to surface, light faded and it appeared to travel towards Folsom Lake or Auburn area

east meadow, NY

While driving facing North, stopped at a red light on Coolidge drive in East Meadow. I was at the Hempstead Turnpike cross. The night was warm/clear and semi busy with foot and vehicle traffic. As the light changed I began to move, left turn, heading westbound on Hempstead Tpke. While driving I viewed an aerial, single, rectangular object, approx. 100 feet from the ground, maybe...50-100 feet long. I'd say it was a dark colored object. Four round bright white lights, equidistant to each other illuminated the bottom. Yet seemingly not enough to reach the ground. It appeared to be rectangular, but no moon visible/ I driving/ and the craft lights made it difficult to conclude a definitive shape. I say that because there was one red light visible, not blinking, on the west side as I proceeded slowly to drive under it. NO SOUND--- and cruising at seemingly a slow speed. Traveling from the Northwest to the Southeast. I frantically looked to the pedestrians and other drivers…Nobody seemed to notice. NOBODY. Through my mind I felt, helicopter?--No…Blimp?--No…No sound. I've worked many nights and it's nothing I've ever come across. Must be something I missed. You got me.

First object seen was with 2 red lights and 1 blinking white light, then it moved far away. Seen it close to Kirkstall Leisure Centre. It is one I usually see around that area. It moves slowly, and it doesn't go straight, sort of zigzagging, it has a triangular shape. I went to the bus stop, about 5 minutes walk from the first sighting point. After a few minutes, another object, much bigger than the first one, a Pentagon of hexagon shaped , with many lights, at least 8, maybe 9, and they were steady, red and white lights , and honestly it looked like a spacecraft or anything I have never seen and for sure wasn't a plane. It was moving slowly , I would say it wasn't flying straight, but not even zigzagging. A few moments after I saw a blinking light just close to this object, it appeared once, then disappeared for 1-2 seconds, appeared again closer to the hexagon shaped object, and disappeared. It happened between 9:50 -10pm

Sherwood, AR

I live near an airport and like to watch the planes coming in and going out at night while letting my dogs out. Tonight I watched a plane ascend. There was a solid white orb that appeared a distance away from the air plane. Within just a few seconds, the orb changed directions and began following the plane at a high rate of speed. Once the orb got closer to the plane, it slowed down and kept a safe distance but continued to follow the plane until I could no longer see either.

Pulled off at flying j to point it out to my buddy, get out in the parkinglot and pointed at it.. my buddy see’s it too and then it started to move about 60 seconds later like it knew we saw it. From standing still to moving at a fair pace across the sky instantly, no chem trail and not sure about sound bc the truck is loud idling

Worcester, MA

I was walking north along Major Taylor Boulevard when I saw what looked like a very fast moving private jet (white sliver) It caught my eye and the more I looked, the odder it became. It wasn’t too far up in the sky, and at one point looked like two white balls/tic tacs flying in unison next to each other, and then again switched back to looking like a white sliver, the original shape which I thought looked like a private jet. I checked flight radar and there were no flights in the area at the time. Unfortunately, I only had the chance to take pictures and so there is no video. I also attached flight radar info to confirm it was not a private jet.

North Haven, CT

I’m very concerned as I e been seeing these crafts a lot over the past 3 years. Please advise and check all areas being reported. I do feel this is becoming a bit of a global I invasive issue. Once I got inside my home I locked all doors but heard voices. I’m hoping this is not a common theme lately as I’ve looked up the UFO reporting map and there’s usually well over a dozen over the U.S. [NUFORC annotation: Hoax - Possible]

Youngstown, OH

I watched ufo for 4-5 minutes. When I got to Youngstown, exit 223, the ufo was on my left. I had to look out and up of my driver's side window. The ufo seemed about the size of a car or big propane cylinder. I did not see any propellers, wings, tail, or jet engines. It did not look like any type of balloon. UFO was light in color, maybe white or silver. The UFO never moved the whole time I watched it.
