Just before 10pm, 06/18/2016, in the southern sky of northern NY, I saw a moon almost full. To the lower left of the moon, I saw what appeared to be a blinking satellite. To the right of the moon, and slightly lower, I saw what appeared at first to be a bright planet, or a giant bright star, much bigger than surrounding stars. It began moving to the right faster than the satellite was traveling. The skies were very clear with minimal thin clouds. There was a tail to the left of the brightest light and it grew in size rapidly. It continued to move and grow without a tail visible then it began to reduce in size and stop. At 10:41, two bright flying objects came from the central bright light. One flew to the left and the other to the right. They were traveling fast. The one on the right increased in size quite quickly and appeared to have at least three separate lights in a triangular shape. Both flying objects continued until we could no longer see them. The main light stayed stationary until we stopped watching and fell asleep.

It was about 9:30 P.M on a clear June night. I sit down on the couch in my living room after getting something to eat like I normally do around this time of night, and turn the T.V on. The house I was in was on the water, and there were big sliding glass doors on either side of the T.V. After about 15 minutes of watching T.V,, I saw something strange happen, outside the right sliding glass door, about a mile away. This bright green V-shaped light appeared in the top right corner of the window, and shot at an angle down toward the water at an incredible pace! I had never seen anything move that fast in the air. When it got close to the water, meaning close enough to reflect well off the water, the light disappeared and in the inside center of where the "V" of light was there was this black and white cigar shaped craft, that looked pretty large. I can't accurately say how large it might have been because I saw it for maybe two seconds, but it was definitely bigger than a small float plane. It seemed as though this object was mainly black with bars of white horizontally on it. A second or two after this object appeared, it was gone. I have no idea where where it went, because I saw no splash or heard or wake. I'm certain I would've heard something that big crashing into the water. I hear whale songs all the time in the house. To this day, the experience has left a lasting impact impact! on me. I still have no idea what it was, and I don't know if anyone else even saw it, but I know I did. Source of report indicates that the date is approximate. PD

June 11, 2016. 9:50 pm Sonoma, Ca. After taking my mother home, my wife and I were walking out to the car in Moon Valley Park Sonoma, when I looked up and saw an orange orb in the sky. My wife got her phone out of her purse and started shooting pictures. We watched as it was slowly coming toward us, then it changed course to its left then started to fade out you could still see a faint point of light making circles started to grow again in size and looked like a faint grey smudge and began to fall looking like a jellyfish all the way down to the ground about 100 yards away, I got a real good look at it low to the ground it was almost transparent ghostly. We looked for it but found nothing. I went back to the spot next day and did not find anything. It look to be maybe 4 to 6 feet in size down near the ground and judging by that I would put it about 150 to 200 feet in the air before it came down.

The pattern stayed in the same spot for 5 minutes, but disappeared shortly after. We weren't able to get a picture of it, but we believe it was an unidentified flying object.

All of the orange balls changed a few times in their formation then all of a sudden became one straight line, then looked like one big orange ball again moved forward a bit and then vanished into thin air. It appeared as if they were trying to find their "sweet spot", then all follow suit and fly off. Weird. Thought it could be a meteor, but the lights hovered and made formations. Thought it could be military planes and hopefully it was, but when it formed a line then one big ball again it vanished. Very odd.

That night, I noticed what looked like a star. But seem much closer and could see light variations with the naked eye. As I washed for a couple of minutes. I thought it was still to strange, so I began taking photos. Now the object in question will be almost center of the screen about a inch from the top. As you scroll through the photos. Another object will appear below the one in question. Below it to the left at first. Then will move across from left to right this being a plane. Once again the object in question will be the one in the same place in almost all the photos. If in doubt look at the photos where i changed the contrast and so forth making the object in question stand out to you in case your wondering. The photos were taken one after the other as quick as my finger hit the button. I guess that's why I am so baffled from one photo to the next. How the obhect in question change so much.

Saw up to 10 craft hovering in the sky, all of them were changing color from red to blue and some greenish. One of the craft split in two and the desperate parts flew in opposite direction and none of these craft made any noise..

I was standing outside having a cigerett around 10:00 pm on Friday May 27th. When I noticed a light at around 2 o clock just NE. It looked like a star but as I kept looking it was changing colors frequently. So i began to snap photos of the object one after the other. Then when I got to looking at the a few minutes later. Is when I noticed everyone of the pictures that shows the object with a haze around it. And as i continue to go through the photos. I came across at least three or four photos where the object seperates and clearly can see two objects. Also in the photos pick up the object with a purple light. And in other photos a blue light. And in others a light blue with green which is very puzzling. One other thing to mention is normally a light or object is picked up much easier on my phone while recording video opposed to shooting a picture. And for some odd reason when I shot video don't seem to get anything. But the first 8 seconds I recorded a lig! ht that moves across my screen from right to left which is very strange.

9PM over Orland Park, Ilinois. We say a huge bright blue light. Bigger then anything else in the sky. Just hovering for about 40 seconds. As fast as we saw it, it completely disappeared. Never seen anything like it before in my life. Was never a believer in this sort of thing but cannot believe what we just witnessed. It had four blue lights on the bottom of it as it flew away. Never seen aircraft move like this before. Simply unreal.

On approximately May 1, 2016, was getting ready for bed and was in my kitchen and looked out the back window. My back yard has a chain link fence with a wooded area behind it. Noticed lights in the wooded area – first though they were lightning bugs but realized that they are not reddish white round globes that zip around. They starting coming into my yard (about 8 of them) and were zooming from one side of the yard to the other, bouncing into my neighbor’s yard and then across mine again. I could not believe what I was seeing and just continued to stare out the window. One of the “things” starting coming straight toward my kitchen window. It is like it noticed me standing there and came to a stop about 3 feet from the window and took off. All the other objects left also. Haven’t seen anything out back again. However, on May 16 I started noticing lights in the sky in front of my house, across the road, etc. They are bright white and sometimes reddish. They ! flicker and change shape. There are sometimes 4 or 5 and sometimes only 2 or 3, but there almost every night. Last night, June 7, at about 11 p.m. there about 6 of them in the sky. One of them zoomed down near the street lamp at the corner of my property and the light immediately went off. I went to my living room and flipped on my porch lights and the street light immediately came back on, no flickers or anything. About 4 or 5 of the objects seem to zoom off to the north and there were about 3 of the objects left in the sky. These make no sound whatsoever, but are freaking me out. I do not go outside after dark, have put thick curtains over all my windows and leave a lamp on. I just want them to go away.

A flashing multi colored orb has been appearing in the horizon by my home every night for the past 3 weeks. (the first week, the multi colored orb appeared once very saturday but for the past week to two weeks its been showing it self every night) It appears at exactly 21:00 every night now and moves slowly down closer then disappears after 30 min then appears again at 3:00 am. I have also had a close encounter where I witnessed a triangular craft that came around over my neighbors home and closely on the side of my home..it craft had 2 or 3 red lights and white glowing lights all around it but it wasn't round when it came closer it was a triangular shape and it never made one sound. It came so close that I ran into the house to get my husband out of the restroom but by the time he had came outside the craft was further away and looked more like an airplane. I believe that the multicolored orb is communicating with other bright lights in the sky. I'm not a professional but I have a very strong feeling that something out there is trying to communicate with me. I am very open minded and curious about whats out there but at the same time I get very nervous with what I will see if I continue to monitor I might not come back to share what I've experienced.

Came out of nowhere, looked almost like a cluster of stars or birds moving like liquid through the sky, it was transparent aside from the multiple extremely dim lights coming from it, my girlfriend had seen it the night before and as she was trying to find a pic of it on the Internet is when it appeared, judging by the way that it moved I feel as though it was not a craft but an actual being of some kind, possibly from a difrent dimension. We were both immediately overcome with a kind of fear I have never felt before. It was clear that although it presented itself as a cluster of lights it was one entity, it was almost like a fast moving mist, but it was going against the wind. And it was definitely in our atmosphere.

Vancouver, WA
An orange orb had risen from the North horizen behind the Vancouver Plaza theater at a 45 degree angle heading South but disappeared behind a tree in front of our parked car obstructing my view. Couple mins later it happened again like Deja Vu, So I got out of the car and ran past the tree this time so I could be ready. It came in the distance again and so I rushed to hurry and urinate. The object taking longer than I expected to arrive, I ran back to the car again behind the tree as before tryng to wake my tired friend. But inside the car the roof blocked his view. It made no sound as It came out the other side of the tree at a 45-degree angle in front of me. To my surprise was no longer a orange flare anymore but had transformed or appeared as a white haze (Like spider's nest) with black or transparent inner-pie-section rotating clockwise, identical to a helicopter's rapid-blade (Like the 80's party game Simon with touch light) with motion creating a optical illusion slowly rotating within the blade movement. I can't make this stuff up it might be blade based or actually military reverse engineered who knows?. All I can say is if so I'd like to have one instead of wasting our natural resources polluting the planet not knowing the consquences (earthquakes hint hint.) Object flew across entire horizen in 1-minute straight like a sattellite and keep in mind it was clear skies even though it looked like a white light hitting a cloud. Coincedently or not it became cloudy about 15 mins after sighting so maybe it accidently missed its cloud covering or had to stick to the some mission on schedule or avoid the clouds; who knows?

Multiple, moving lights, changing from super bright white to shiny silver. While driving down the inner state I noticed multiple bright silver objects. I thought it was a flock of birds at first but it stayed in the same circular area and pattern, it kept changing from bright white to shiny silver. I pointed it out to my wife and 17 yr old. They saw it as well, and they too said birds at first but it was not like any bird formation we’d ever seen. We have pelicans and seagulls that frequent the area but they are always seen over the lakes. This was inner city, no water around. As we drove away from that location my 17 yr old was still watching this weird occurrence that stayed over the same location.

On May 6, 2016, at approximately 1:00 AM, my husband and I were sitting at a table in our driveway. I stood up to look around at all of the beautiful stars on this clear night. My husband was sitting facing the Northeastern sky. As I was looking around at all of the beautiful stars I looked to the Northeast and there it was! My husband and I saw it at the same time. It was a huge glowing orange triangle object coming up over the tree line. We both said, “What is that!” I took off to get my phone 15 ft. away and I heard my husband say, “It disappeared.” I said, “It figures when I want to take a picture.” Then, all of a sudden, it reappeared but it had changed its shape and color. Now it looked like a giant star that I see in the sky every night but it was moving slowly. It was now white and appeared to have 5 bright white dots connected with lighter white lines. I followed it for about 30 seconds as it moved slowly across the sky. Then it hovered in the distance for another 30 seconds as I shined my phone light towards it and then it disappeared. Very strange indeed.

One night, My parents and i were talking about "higher beings" and sightings. He goes outside and about 5 minuets later we hear him yell, " guys come outside and We see these two lights in the sky. An orange-ish yellow glow emitting from both. They then both get dim and then two lights pop out from either side of the lights. They then all have they same glow and color. they then all fade completely and about 10 seconds later they faded back in. But they were in a different area in the sky. At that time it was 6 lights. Then they hovered for about 5 minuets then faded out. there was no aircraft near our area nor any drones. As well as no sound or humming/ buzzing from the lights.

Driving four blocks to my daughters house i see the craft at helicopter heighth. Lit up 3 in a row like the top of a stadium light. Hovering then moves over four houses..hoveres, by then i had gotten closer almost to my daughters house who lives with her father. The thred lights separated or moved over slightly shifting the dark shape changed. It tilted to the right i could see the round dark shape of its bottom. It was silent. I dont know if it was a sound it made just then i guess i would say a short intensifying hum then it flew fast and i couldnt see where. It stayed low to the houses. It hovered over my daughters dads house. We asked him if he heard anything neither him nor my nine yr old son heard anything. It was some xfiles shit was my daughters opinion on what we saw. Best one i ever seen and so close i raced through stop signs to get near it. Attaching only cell phone photo i could get while driving.

We were in our pasture, and we looked at the creek from a distance. It looked normal. We eventually walked back to the house and I turned around. one of the trees from where we looked at was moving (Not waving like a tree, moving like a human). I whipped my camera out and gave it to my cousin, and we ran to it. We saw a black moving circle (moved like a human). That part was not on camera, but we saw it. We decided to walk back and we heard a noise louder than a car, but quieter than a plane, coming from behind us. We looked to the sky and saw a thing glowing yellow flying faster than a plane. It soon disappeared. Probable hoax, 2nd of two. Video for first shows a young boy, and his younger sister, running through forested property, carrying a BB gun, simulating a defense against invading aliens, which are not visible to the viewer. PD

I saw a bright red, greenish strobing light, sparkling light in SW sky around 5a moving around, I thought it was a plane but it kept moving forward, back and around then all of a sudden it became a grayish cigar shape which streaked down, across the sky away from it's position, moving SW, rather than the bright colors moving quickly that I initially observed. It was not close to the ground, then it was gone.

Starting at approximately 21:00 hours, Friday evening, April 9, my 16 year old son yelled to me…,"Mom, come look!" We spent the next hour watching multiple strange orange orbs and flashing moving objects. Red, green and faint blue lights pulsed from the objects. They would stay still for moments and them move back and forththrought the sky. They were completley silent and appeared triangle in shape. The way they moved was like nothing ive ever seen. Almost appeared to change shape or size (or visible dimension). Very strange. We also witnessed what we thought were helicopters at one point, trying to get close to the orbs. "Twinkling" stars?? PD

Bridgeville, DE
Me and my mother were jogging and to our right was a big tree line maybe 2 to 3 feet from us. I looked to my right to see the moon and I saw something bright and white through the tree line so I thought it was the moon so we continued running for maybe 2 minutes not even then I looked again and it got bigger. This time and right as I noticed that it got bigger instead of one light three more lights appeared then boom it hit me the uap was hovering right above me and my mother. I grabbed her threw her into the woods and I jumped into a bush. She didn’t see it at the time so she looked at me then I pointed up and she looked and then her jaw dropped. There was a noise coming from the craft a very low pitch tone like you could hear the vibrations in your ears but not sound it’s hard to explain it but it was dark so sadly didn’t get to see the color that well but it did just look like a steel color dark metal wasn’t shiny or at least couldn’t tell because it was dark but honestly one of the best experiences of my life always dreamed about something like that as a kid and it happened haven’t seen one since sadly.
