Bryant, AR
Wife yells "UFO," so I jump up and run outside to see my wife and son, age 11, watching 2 disc shaped "Ships of Light" straight up Rollin. They were two separate craft, one following the other. They weren't physically connected but were connected, or synced rather. Each craft was the most brilliant orange, probably about 30 ft across cruising maybe 25, 30 mph. We all watched until they eventually faded away northbound. My son captured 4 seconds of video of this event.

Riverside, CA
I was driving North on I-215 and my 9 year old son shouted from the back, "Mom, mom what the heck is that?... Mom look." Unfortunately, I was in heavy, fast moving traffic and just couldn't take my eyes off the road. He watched a flat disc move at incredible speed across the length of the mountains. He said, "Mom, I know how fast a plane crosses that space. It takes minutes, and that thing crossed in seconds - the whole mountain range and then just vanished." He couldn't get over what he had seen. I am soooo bummed I missed it.

Springfield, MO
I was traveling east bound, I-44,12:15 AM,3-16-2017,near Springfield, Mo. Noticed west bound flatbed, with dropdeck, being escorted by 8 vehicles.4 in front ,4 in rear. They were traveling approximately 60 mph. On the flatbed was a silvery colored disk. typical saucer shape. 12 ft in height, 35 ft in diameter. Looked like they took up the entire west bound lanes. Escorts were running both lanes. West bound traffic was about 1/4 mile behind escorts. Weather was 40 degrees, clear. NUFORC has received several other sightings of the same, or a similar, object. We do not know what the object is, but we suspect it is used in either military, and/or intelligence, applications. PD

Le 15 mars 2017, à 16h30, un témoin dans son jardin, constate la présence dans le ciel d'un "nuage" immobile particulier. Le témoin perd de vue le PAN quelques instants puis le retrouve dans le ciel, beaucoup plus grand, en mouvement. Le témoin en décrit la partie supérieure comme le "dessus d'une soucoupe" de couleur "blanc, noir, gris". Le PAN disparait alors, en faisant du "rase-motte en direction de Montflanquin et Fumel à très grande vitesse. Un seul témoignage sera recueilli. La consistance est très faible, très peu d’informations. La description du cas a dû être reconstituée à partir d'éléments essentiellement graphiques reproduits par le témoin dans le questionnaire (voir le compte rendu d'enquête). Le GEIPAN a réfléchi à mener une enquête terrain, à la rencontre du témoin pour accroitre la consistance. Il nous a semblé qu’une enquête terrain n’apporterait pas plus d’information fiable pour cette observation. Bien que des données a priori utilisables soient présentes (estimations d’altitudes, de tailles, de durées…), elles restent confuses et disparates. Le GEIPAN classe cette observation en C : manque d’informations pour une étude approfondie. [GEIPAN classification C — Manque d'informations fiables]

Florence, SC
While traveling down Old River Rd, away from Florence, a truck driver traveling ahead of me suddenly slammed on brakes and moved towards the side of the road. This movement was caused by a saucer shaped object hovering ten feet off the roads surface. The object slowly gained altitude while moving to the right. We (the truck driver and I) watched this object move until it was level with the trees and suddenly appeared to go behind the tree line. This was directly in front of a large building, that is open, but no one ever sees workers or trucks. I drove this road daily, twice a day. The vessel was around 10-15 feet in diameter, it was completely solid with no apparent openings or windows. However, coming from the right of the center a "L" shaped thing was coming out of the vessel.

Huntsville, AL
I was on my way to work, coming off 565 West via exit 13 for Madison Blvd. I happened to look in the sky and saw a bright, white or silver disc-shaped object in front of some clouds. From my perspective, the object was heading towards my right. My first thought was that it was simply an airplane, although it appeared to be moving a bit fast for an airplane. However, its smooth appearance, lack of visible wings or propellers of any kind, and sheer brightness, made me think twice about that. Having seen and watched many helicopters, I knew it wasn't a helicopter from its shape and the way it was moving through the sky. The object disappeared from my view, being blocked by some trees, and I didn't think anything of it, until I saw it heading from behind the trees going towards my left (again from my perspective) At that point I had to make a turn, which led to the object being behind me and I lost sight of it.

lighted disc about 10 feet in front of me kept going round and round in circles in and out for about 11 minutes I just stood and watched they seemed to come close then move back and then they were gone. Possible advertising lights?? PD

It was bright, it was like a glowing disc. It landed very quickly, it was already on approach when I saw it, coming in to Fort Campbell. I tried to convince myself it was not a UFO. I tried really really hard.

Nampa, ID
We were observing our back yard as we had seen a hovering orb for around a half hour sitting there. We then made the choice to try to trace it's where about and drove, then gathering multiple photographs that were very incriminating and show the clear body of the craft as well as a sort of beam coming out of the bottom. The object also seemed to have hovered above a house for a brief period of time however we did not see if an abduction happened as we were a bit away and without the phone, it looked like a very bright orb. A few times it would move extremely fast and then seem to vanish. Only to show up again 10 minutes later. The photos captured were very clear when zoomed in and show the craft almost completely clearly.

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE HEADING SOUTH ON 79,IT WAS 5:40AM. THE CRAFT WAS FLYING LOW AND GOING AT A SLOW PACE. IT WAS FLYING A MILE OR SO AHEAD OF US.WE THOUGHT IT WAS A HELICOPTER AT FIRST BUT WHEN WE APPROACHED IT CLOSER IT LOOKED LIKE A ROUND DISC WITH 2 OR MORE BLINKING LIGHTS.WE WATCHED IT FLY WEST OF US GOING TOWARD BRIDGEVILLE. THE DISC DID NOT LOOK LIKE IT WAS SPINNING. JUST DRIFTING ACROSS THE HIGHWAY. IT TRAVELED ABOUT 200 HUNDRED FEET OR MORE AND THEN IT WAS HARD TO SEE BECAUSE OF THE TREES.I WISH THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN SOME DAYLIGHT. NEVER HAVE WE SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS. I DIDN'T HAVE A CAMERA TO TAKE ANY PICTURES, BUT I DO NOT THINK YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE ANYTHING OUT BECAUSE THE SKY WAS DARK AND SO WAS THE DISC.

Fredericksburg, VA
On 2/09/2017 I was awakened by a loud sound at approx. 3:15 in the morning. The sound appeared hollow and metalic in nature. It sounded as if air was being blown through a large hollow metal tube. I ran to look out my window in the direction of the sound. My window faces the forest. I was shocked to see an illuminated rectangular shaped object, the top area of this standing rectangular object was arched (almost like a boxed shape of a man); It moved amongst the trees and from time to time the light would go out. I watched in amazement for what seemed like 3 minutes. There was also another object about 20' away from this object. It was Saucer-shaped and had 3 strobing lights around it. It appeared to Hoover about 15' from the ground. I wanted to capture the images of what I was seeing so I ran and got my cell phone and began recording what I saw. I recorded the 2 objects and the sound that I heard that woke me up. My footage is 1 minute 23 seconds long. I stopped recording when the saucer like object flew off in the distance.

Albuquerque, NM
The light up marquee over the interstate reads "wide load." Mile marker 149 I-40 on the outer west edge of Albuquerque, NM. The light up marquee over the interstate reads "wide load, expect delays 9pm to 5am" At about 10:30pm 4 white SUVs with red/white flashing lights in front about a 1/2 mile back a flat bed tractor trailer was carrying a large gray disk shape. It was colored dark gray non-reflective surface and as big as the two lanes of the interstate. About 1/2 mile behind the tractor trailer there where 6 of the same SUVs keeping traffic back. I was standing outside in a campground I was staying at, just beside the interstate.

Fort Leonard Wood, MO
((ADDENDUM FROM NUFORC AND WITNESS)) Dear Mr. ((name deleted)) Thank you very much for the nice report! We have heard about that object before, and we believe that it is some kind of space vehicle, used by the U. S. Air Force. If you go to the homepage of www.ufocenter.com and scroll down to the posting of April 30, 2015, you can see an illustration submitted by another professional driver, who saw something quite similar to what you describe. Please let me know if it matches the craft you witnessed. Thanks, again! Cordially, Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center Washington State RESPONSE FROM SOURCE OF ORIGINAL REPORT: Thanks. The object was classic flying saucer shaped, at least from my view, which was mostly edge on. It wasn't as large as the illustration on April 2015. No wings, bumps etc. I am very familiar with military aircraft. Thanks. ((END ADDENDA))

Eureka, MO
While driving S on I 44 between St. Louis, MO, and Eureka, MO, we encountered a large group of police and other army type vehicles with lights flashing, as we approached we were watching and there was a trailer surrounded by these vehicles hauling a large saucer, it looked as if they were having difficulty going through an underpass. The saucer shape was like nothing we'd seen before. We continued on, stopped in Eureka for the night, at the Steak and Shake restaurant, the employees were outside and immediately asked if we had seen the flying saucer. They were in contact with others who were trying to get closer but were being turned away. We have photos too. Other reports. Piece of USAF equipment. Photos posted. PD

Grover, FL
See attached photo taken from driver seat looking straight ahead on road. See what looks like two slim eye shaped disks with three round lights lined across their length. They were lit up in between the two mountains driving past Atkins Rd Grover NC on Route 85 South West towards Spartansburg/Gaffney, SC, 27 minutes away. Time and stats taken from camera. Driver took photo--thought could be moonlight between clouds and that it looked like a pair of eyes. Yet photo shows the three round lights across on each.
