Around Ashland or Thornton, NH
We saw the object hovering and then disappear. My significant other is ex Air Force and didn’t recognize the object as having any light pattern he was aware of. It was high above the highway in the mountains and it suddenly was gone. The aura was visible when I enlarged the image I took with my phone. I am not necessarily requesting to speak with an investigator but would be happy to if the investigators have questions.

Belle Fourche, SD
Starting around 8:30pm on 9/15 and 9/16 multiple uap sightings that were sporadic in a 1-1.5 hour period. They start as orbs through the sky sometimes multiple moving together non blinking lights and we are in a rural area with not much air traffic. They are traveling at a high rate of speed but will fade out. What really baffles me on 9/15 there was a string of blue lights around 10+ that were traveling through the sky in an upward motion but sideways (completely different look than starlink) they were spaced far apart but consecutively following one another in a straight pattern. I went out the evening of 9/16 and witnessed the same thing with multiple orbs traveling through the sky around 5 individual ones and again saw a string of crafts traveling straight up in the sky coming from what looked like bottom traveling up one after another that lasted 5minutes. I don’t know what’s going on in our area lately but it’s incredibly exciting and if it continues happening I think this is worth investigating.

I looked out of my glass deck door and saw a glowing light which looked odd and not like an airplane. It looked orange and white. I ran to my room to grab my phone and caught it on video for a few and then it disappeared. I also saw aircraft activity near it but this did not resemble an airplane or helicopter. The encounter laster about a minute or so after I saw it but it could've been there longer. I also have been noticing other glowing strange lights lately plus extra airplane activity and saw another white round glowing light last week but it was moving slowly. My and my girlfriend both saw the one last week but the one tonight I saw alone. This one looked lower to the ground and closer. I also noticed my outside flood light which hasn't worked in 2 years flicker for about 2 hours a week ago which I found strange.

On back patio looking north sky high in the sky a moving orb of light quick and then turning into a brilliant glowing circle of white and the some blue with movement on the sides and then disappearing. No clouds. Seemed not too far away, and it could have been large.

I was outside walking my dog at 9 pm. All of a sudden I saw this bright light, so I looked up and saw this circular aircraft fly across the sky. It was crazy, I work in the plane industry and I have never seen anything like it. All of a sudden it appeared and then it was gone, it was grey and circular but pretty small. I could see something in the window and it got really close then it flew really fast away and disappeared.

Ocean City, NJ
While out on the beach at OCNJ 8th street at after 4am but before 5am on 9/14/2023, I was looking out at the ocean and sky with PVS7B military surplus night vision googles. Observed plenty of planes, satellites, shooting stars, birds etc. (normal stuff). I was on vacation and was sober. I use these goggles all the time… it was not an artifact in the tube. Witnessed / noticed large light (large dot - larger than plane or satellite) coming from direction of ocean and passing directly over head at probably high altitude and very high speed. I have no idea if it was visible to the baked eye. I tracked using goggles from my first spotting to crossing over my head and over land in just a 2-3 seconds. (Estimated hundreds and hundreds of miles) This object was moving very fast and that is why it caught my attention. This blew past any satellite etc by at least 10 times speed. After passing over at a high altitude it stopped dead in the sky for a second. I was shocked! It just stopped. There were then a series of 3 maneuvers lasting about 2-3 seconds total from point of stoping. First it arced to the right, then down left, then up right ( each in a small arc), stopping dead each time for a brief faction of a second, then it when it accellerated up and right for a split second it was gone. Possibly a slight trail when it left (maybe). These maneuvers could not have been performed by any man made or natural phenomenon I am aware of. It was very shocking to witness this, made my hair stand up on the back of my neck . I ran in to tell my wife what I witnessed. I had searched for it in the sky by it was gone. If I would not have been looking at the sky over the ocean when it appeared, Im pretty certain I would have missed it. No sound, no trails, no flashing, extremely fast, only one solid dot (green in NV IR). Not a drone! Unknown if it had lights. Was just one large dot.

Strathmore, CA
So almost every night the past 2+ weeks. My guy and myself see this circular/oval object hovering east above Strathmore. We had some binoculars and took a closer look and it definitely has some blinking lights and it hovers left , right, up and down. There is also a smaller circular object that stays near by the bigger circular/oval object. At first we thought maybe a planet, maybe a satellite, but no this is something beyond that! It literally moves left and right . So also just last night I was looking at the object from my bedroom window, maybe about 10 minutes just watching it. And all of a sudden there was a quick flash of light on my front porch. It scared the crap out of me. Mind you I live in the groves with only 1 neighbor and it was definitely not them. I was thinking they are on to me watching them closely . I never was so scared in my life I actually started shaking . Scary. You can contact me for more information. Looking for anyone with a good telescope who wants to investigate. [NUFORC annotation: Planet/Star - Possible]

Green round light was spotted traveling at high speeds towards a wooded area. Other cars were also on the same highway at the time of spotting.

While walking my dog at approximately 9:35 PM, I noticed a bright orange light above the tree line. My dog and I both watched the light grow larger as if it was coming toward us for approximately 1 to 2 minutes before it shrunk into a white light and disappeared. There were no sounds.

There was one going across the sky shiny round. It looked to be. It was pretty far up in the sky going across the sky at a pretty fast speed I'm assuming and then following that another one same direction and then another one went crossways very fast speed as well

I saw this bright round thing this morning at 10:15am MST in the Western sky next to the moon image. I thought it was a planet, but it started moving (see video). You can see a tail on it with a smaller bright circle at the end. It was traveling West to East.

As I was in the parking lot I look up and see a bright round circular object in the sky, it is to early and light out for the stars to come out yet, so I think it is a plane. I look back and it is slowly moving up. It finally stops and then it disappears. About 30 seconds later, it reappears at the same place I first saw it, it went up and disappears, this happens about 5 or 10 times. Then I look back and see it dart off to the side, fast. I blink and it is gone, a round light moving around in strange ways. this is no plane nor a weather ballon.

Every morning when I wake up at 5, there is a very bright two ball object right in front of my window up in the sky about 4-5 k feet. I assumed it was a drone but it rotates with the earth so maybe it is a low satellite. But on this morn, there was a 2nd one to the SE. It was lighter, appeared suddenly, and had small white objects coming out of it, maybe 2-3. The small white objects were moving away from the larger two ball object.

We observed one saucer-shaped object as you can see in the first photo. Then, it split (or the first object emitted a bunch of smaller objects) and the resulting objects took off in separate directions— straight up and straight down — (“reformed” post-split saucer up, small Vs / geometric line objects down - see second photo - zoom in to see detail - 4th photo is a zoom of one of these smaller objects), before the saucer shot due East across the Southern night sky, with incredible speed, while the smaller objects quickly disappeared. The saucer was chased immediately afterwards by what appeared to be a military drone, low and moving at high speed.
