At around 3:00pm, I walked outside to take my dog on a walk when I spotted 3 star-like objects over the San Gabriel Mountains moving slowly but something about their movement caught my attention. I had seen similar stationary light sightings frequently during the months leading up, but since these were moving I immediately called for my dad to come outside and observe them as well. By the time he came out and I started to record on my iPhone, there were two lights left. One seemed to hide behind some clouds over the mountains but the last light kept traveling into the clear sky so I decided to record it. I expected it to drift like a balloon, but once I began recording it started zigzagging as if to evade my eyesight. I had on sunglasses which made it hard to see anything on my phone due to the lighting. It was a bright sunny day and my phone screen had a glare under its shadow as I was pointing it directly up over the roof of my house. So I was mostly looking at the light in the sky and only taking occasional glances at my phone screen. I move my phone in an attempt to mimic the movements of the light so as to keep it on the recording screen. The light appears to accelerate and stop suddenly at sharp angles before "disappearing." The moment it disappears, I was actually looking at it in the sky, not my phone screen, but coincidentally, my phone goes out of focus at the same time. When it focuses again, the light reappears, however I had already lost sight of it which is why I stopped recording. Basically, it tricked me into thinking it had vanished or taken off.

Monroe, GA
Me and my husband was driving from Monroe to Athens . I am pregnant so I get sick looking at the road so I had been watch these two dots in the sky thinking maybe it's airplane lights. The closer we got to Athens I realized it looked like it was falling from the sky. I started screaming at my husband while he was driving so he could look too it started falling faster and faster then it stopped and sat in one spot until the sun came out a little around 6:20 and it started fading into the distance as I'm typing this I can still see the two dots of light the bottom one you can see it more and the top dot is a little dimmer.

Looked up at the sky when I was leaving home and saw what I thought was two stars but there was only two and they were huge and glowing. I started to take pics and they disappeared and reappeared back in same spot so I record in hopes of then vanishing again. As I made a left turn I didn’t not see them again!

When driving to work this morning, I noticed two lights in the sky. At first I thought it was a tower that I hadn’t noticed before, however, it soon became clear that I was wrong. The two lights were consistent in their spacing the entire time and at times it looked like there was a grey body between the lights. It seemed to stay fixed in the sky only “moving” as my car navigated the turns of the road. I was never able to get closer to it, but it also never got further away. Unfortunately, I was not able to stop to get a better focused photo, but what I did capture was about what I could see with my own eyes. It looked too close and too big in the sky to be stars. I’ve never seen anything in the sky like it before. It was a constant in the sky (never moving around or getting closer or further) for about 15 miles with varying speeds between 35-75mph. This was along route 322 heading east between route 72 & route 272.

We were heading in from shrimping and we notice these lights out of place and not blinking like a plane and just staying in one place so we stopped and started observing them they seemed to get closer so we started moving towards them but they in turn started getting further away so we stopped and killed the motor and cut off all the lights then the lights started back towards us slowly and my passenger got scared and told me turn turn lights back on and when I did the lights stopped and began getting farther away. We started towards boat launch and light were gone when we arrived there were no lights then as I was loading boat on trailer they appeared thru the trees. We hurried loaded and headed to the house and we stopped and started talking about it and checked the skies and started unloading then I heard her gasp for air and I looked up and there the lights were at my house they said ayes for a min they slowly backed outs site. She attempted to look thru binoculars but all she could describe was a fireball. I’ve lived with 5 mile radius for 20 years and never seen these lights and I use lights as landmarks to travel the water. I’m not sure what they were but they didn’t belong.

I had gone outside as I do every night to make sure everything was locked up and noticed how clear the sky was, not a cloud in sight. I then noticed a bright white light that for a few seconds looked like it was behind some thin cloud cover. Then I remember thinking there is no cloud cover and it can't be the Moon or ISP as its the wrong part of the sky. It took me some seconds to realise the light was moving. It wasn't going fast or changing direction, flashing or changing colour. Just moving very slowly across the sky and fading off into the distance. I have spent a lot of years looking at the night sky and never seen anything like this. The object was moving from a SSE to NNW direction and almost directly overhead.

While camping and settling under the open sky for bed. We were star-gazing at the sky. A super bright, circular light suddenly appears overhead and lit up the area. There were not any beams, the light just illuminated everywhere. We sat watching the light. It appeared to be stationary, hovering in place. We did not hear any sounds coming from it. It was well above the tree line. After a short time, it began to move very slowly south and then quickly turned off. We did not see it the rest of the night.

On the night of 26th April 2022 Tuesday, I saw a strange red light in the sky. I first thought it is a light coming from any mobile tower and I was thinking when did they build a tower here, then suddenly the light moved backward slightly and came back to its position. I understood there was something hovering over like a drone but it had just one light "red" and its bright light was definitely not like any drone. It was flying far away at a great altitude and was not likely any space stuff but in earth's atmosphere, I think. After 20 seconds or so after when started watching it, I ran to my friend and pointed the object to her and when we were watching it just after 2 sec or so when I pointed towards it, It flew away with the greatest speed I've ever witnessed of any flying object. and vanished behind buildings. It was as if something was spying on me from a great distance. It had a ring-type structure although I couldn't see it clearly I think so. I've attached a similar sketch of it. The light was not blinking and it was only red just like the red light on mobile towers. There are two witnesses me and my friend. I don't know the exact time but it was between 9:30 to 10:00 clock at night. In my area, I've seen many meteors and airplanes but this one was not that and was totally strange and like in total control of something. It identified that I pointed towards it and flew away. I've not seen any drones in my area ever and it was definitely not a drone as you might think. The object was sighted in the southwest sky from my coordinates.

I was standing behind the Fire Station on Brunswick Rd and was looking up in the sky and saw a bright light that was flashing slowly (approximately 1 sec on and 3-5 sec off) the light was holding positions so I thought it was a satellite or high altitude plane. It was vary high and the light was not like the white strobe on the underside of a plane. The the light started moving towards the east and would pause then make a vary short fast movement to the south. I looked for con trails coming off it and saw none. It just would make a fast movement then hold still then move again. The light had to much altitude to be a helicopter and no noise was being made. I observed the light and compared it to the plane that was flying past the station going to MEM (probably landing on RW18L or 18C) and the plane beckon was noticeably faster between flashes and much closer and I could hear the engine of the plane. After about 7-10 minutes the light was gone, I then searched the sky for it to appear again and it did not. I did not have my phone so I could not take a picture of it ( not that it would do any good because of the distance of the light)

picture taken with iPhone 13 pro the bottom of the picture will give you the settings and time. I did not see the white light until I looked at the picture. It was the 1st pic it's not in the other two But I zoomed in on the moon. No light. The cloud is the only one in the sky at the time and I thought it was interesting next to the moon

At 8 pm, while outside enjoying a warm evening, a long-duration (10 seconds) flasher appeared of brightness -6 (brighter than brightest Venus) in the southern sky at 50 deg declination. I refer to these sightings as flashers based on the typically instantaneous flashes of varying brightness that are almost a guaranteed viewing if one gives a half hour or more of continuous observation. As a 54yo lifelong skywatcher, I have seen well over 50 uap including close-ups, daytimers, and shapeshifters. I haven't seen an extraterrestrial that I am aware of. Over 50% of the sightings have been flashers. 0% were common satellites. The light of a flasher typically is of point-source starlike intensity vs dull, reflected light from satellites or planets. Normally the flashes are instantaneous or microseconds in duration but a few have been of seconds-long duration. Flashing light is a great way to send information I hear.

My girlfriend and I were traveling on the I10 from Tucson to Phoenix. Near the 194 exit I saw a light in the sky north east of us, presumably a plane. All of a sudden, a bright light shoots down from the plane then curves up to the left in a “J” shape before disappearing. It lasted all of 4 seconds. I tried to get my girlfriend to look up to see it and it had already disappeared.

Saw this when I took the dog for a walk. Asked my wife to come see it. It was very bright. She sat and watched with me for a few minutes then went back inside. She thought it was strange too. I walked the dog and came back a few minutes later and it was still there. I sat down and watched from my stoop which faces south. Took a photo and a video but it didn't quite capture the colors. The shimmer was not like a star. Honestly, it could have been a drone. There was almost a hovering movement - slightly up, down, left, right. However it seemed too far and too high to be a drone. Great colors. No discernible shape. That's about it! I went inside and came back out to check a few times. It seemed to slowly move lower in the sky until was gone. (I checked Venus. It set around 3pm PST in San Diego today). Any ideas or similiar reports?

I looked up and observed a large and slow moving object, just to the right of the larger object a small light can be seen flying in a zig zag pattern. Then the small object disappears then shoots out from a cloud and flies towards the large object it looked like it was flying into it. The large object just kept slowly moving away. It is all on my video I have uploaded for you.

I went to take my dogs outside and noticed a tight cluster of lights over my garage at 9:49pm Eastern standard time. The cluster was so large and close that it caught my eyes. I went inside to put a warmer hat on and jacket then rushed back outside at 9:51 Eastern standard time to see what I thought might be fireworks or possibly a meteor shower. I knew that this cluster was a unique occurrence because I have done this same thing almost every night for years and have never seen anything like this. I started to really focus on this cluster and realized that I wasn’t sure exactly what I was looking at. The lights were coming collectively straight in the sky over my garage moving in the direction toward my house. The color was yellow and had a shimmer to it similar to a banner being dragged behind a airplane. A dull roaring became louder and louder as the lights passed over. I thought that maybe an airplane had decided to string up some lights on the back of a banner, however there were no airplane. The sound was so apparent that I looked to see if it were in a different spot because I knew something was making the sound but couldn’t see what it was. I noticed I didn’t have any air traffic I could see. That also struck me as odd because I see so many airplane’s every night and I live about 15 minutes from the airport. I started to record the lights but couldn’t get a good focus and my camera stopped recording. My phone then locked and froze. I’ve never seen an error on my phone happening like this. It simply would not unlock or unfreeze for about a minute. When it did unlock and open I started recording again looking at my phone then back to the sky and I noticed the color was a little different on the screen. It seemed to take a yellow tint at first then became very white as the object passed over. The cluster was more stretched out than before but the alignment of the lights was so precise that it couldn’t be a flag or banner with lights because it seemed to float across the sky. When the lights were first seen they were moving faster but once it came over it slowed down and looked like it formed a shape. As soon as I could get a better shot and focus on it the lights looked as if they just went behind a curtain and were all gone in the blink of an eye. I looked up thinking I was officially crazy and scratched my head about what I had just seen. I thought for a few minutes and wanted to look at the videos to compare. After some looking online a bit I came across the starlink satellite pictures and they looked alike but the more I reviewed all of my information something seemed off. Directly after the lights disappear I seen 4 airplanes come out of nowhere and fly over the same part of sky like they were looking for something. The rate of speed they moved across the sky was so much faster than the large lights I watched float over. I tracked the path of starlink and it doesn’t seem to match the path of the lights in my recordings. I always look at the stars, the moon, the sky and listen to all the airplanes and helicopters at night for years. I’ve lived in this house since 2007 and see all kinds of thinks in the sky but nothing comparable to this.

I was coming in the house I turned to shut the door when I seen an enormous bright white light. Just a long tube was the shape similar to a neon tube. It moved slowly across the sky and made no noise I watched it until it just shut off. It didn’t zoom away the light seemed to have just went out. It was very large I can’t believe no one else saw it. I know what I saw you don’t have to believe me. They are here and it was kind of a scary realization when you actually see the truth for what it is. They are here no one can tell me they don’t exist I now know they do and our government are terrible liars. They exist. They are letting us know it for a reason.

There was no sound, it was moving faster than a plane and had no characteristics of one. It could have been a sphere but hard to tell. It moved across the sky west to east and we were facing south watching it until it disappeared into the distance.

I brought my dog outside for a potty break like I do every night before he is kenneled. At first I thought I was seeing a shooting star because of how high it was and its speed. Then this object that looked like a very bright white star, changed directions several times before coming to a stop. It stayed still for about 4 seconds and then shot up and off. Gone in an instant. I stayed outside looking at the sky questioning if I really saw it. Then within a few minutes the "star" reappeared in the sky, close to where it disappeared. It shot back across the sky this time from left to right, changing directions and then abruptly stopped and just sat there again. I grabbed my phone to video it but when I looked back up it was gone. I waited outside looking at the sky for at least another hour, but nothing else happened. I am outside every night and I know the plane traffic in the area. I live a few cities away from an airport so I am very familiar with the plane routes, how they look, the blinking lights and the sounds. This was not a plane. It was way too high in the sky. I have never seen something move this fast. It was incredible to see. I'm not sure what it was.

Walking the dog for the evening, looked to the horizon above the housing estate… saw a ball of light which I though was a plane but it then broke away from what I thought was a light and it seemed to be pushing what looks like a cloud in front of it?? Just looked odd so took a photo and video

Cancun, QUINTANA · Mexico
On our vacation in Mexico, my fiancé and I were sitting on the beach at approximately 10:30 PM on April 19th. We were laying back on a blanket, and looking at the stars and listening to the waves. I noticed a star appear in the sky, and see it shoot out to the east, out towards the ocean. I quickly tap my fiancé and tell her to look at the shooting star. We are both watching the star as it quickly stops, spins once, and zips to the south. Me and my fiancé get up from the blanket, and follow the star as it shoots back to the east, spins twice more and disappears. All this happened in a span of 6-7 seconds. We go back to lay on the blanket, keeping our eyes to the sky trying to spot it again, from the east we see another light the size of a star move in a floating pattern to the north, and then shoots west over the hotels and disappears. This spanned a total of about 3-4 seconds. We stayed out for another 30 minutes trying to spot it or something like it, but we didn’t see anything else and went back inside.
