Ephrata, WA
I am a 77 year old male.. I was walking with my 40 year old son and 35year old granddaughter at 18:50 hours when I saw what looked like two small black clouds that were shaped like a widened W. The sky was clear accept for a few white clouds. wind was blowing from the west. I said to the kids look those two clouds look like space ships. Then the lower cloud turned around and headed southwest into the wind. About thirty seconds later it looked like it vaporized and disappeared. About a minute later the second cloud did the same thing. ((13 digit number deleted))

Lonoke, AR
We I saw it what appeared to be an object white in color with a reflective type coating decende from high in the clouds. It was in the shape of the letter v and appeared to be moving at a very fast rate at a 45 degree angle. It was like a reflective flash and suddenly appeared to have stopped, in mid sky still well above the trees. Then it suddenly left out of site as quickly as it had appeared. At first thought I thought maybe it was a meteor. But, there was no tail, no smoke nothing. Nothing crashed. No Sound. The area is open farm land for the most part. Trees in the distance. Nothing else appeared after it vanished. I was on a live stream using periscope and it shut down my cell phone signal when it appeared, and periscope lo led up. I am using Verizon cell phone service. Samsung phone.

At around 1:45 me and my friend left work to go to his house and grab some things. after about 22 minutes we arrived at the park and were parking to go smoke and chill as usual. We got out the car and started walking to the benches by the Tennis court. My friend turned and faced me looking around the SW direction. I was already facing North West moving my head looking around because we just arrived. Then without expecting it a light I was seeing and made no second thought about moved out of sight behind trees to my right in 2.5 seconds. When I first saw it moving I thought it was a shooting star but I soon realized it was below cloud cover, going straight, and had no tail made up of light. There was no sound. The light was a white orb shaped object. The exact direction I was looking toward in the moment was 311 degrees North West. From my vantage point the object started from a little to the left from where i was looking, but I remember seeing the light in a! stand still (I had no thoughts at the time about the light) I told my friend about it but he visibly didn't seem to believe me. I am no expert on speeds or elevations or any of the sort but the object at least to me looked like it was going past the sound barrier at 1500 feet (The fastest I've seen anything move). The orb was white and from where I was looking looked to be around 1/4 the size of the moon if you were looking at the moon from earth. I checked for 30 minutes after the sighting and nothing re-appeared. One thing to note is I have been experiencing strange coincidences lately that don't really make sense and should have never happened.

Chandler, OK
There were two sets that with the naked eye appeared round. They were above us in Chandler, Oklahoma, for about 10 and 20 minutes. Through a pair of binoculars they reminded us of wheels inside of wheels. They lifted up and out rather quickly then one returned and stayed for a bit longer before fading out.

Yuma, AZ
Looked like a star...until it moved...moonlit sky..was North of moon..eastern sky..almost directly overhead... Darting around...no sound...thought is was an airplane at first..30,000 to 40,000 feet Til it started darting around Not first time seen, but this time it was only one Last time it was 3...and they were in a triangle formation,darting around zig-zagging It doesn't move from the area it's in, Everytime we've seen it, it's in the same part of the sky...background dark sky as always... Yuma International Airport that is next to Marine Corps Air Station Yuma Felt compelled tonight to have this investigated because it seems be far to repetive to ignore

Sewickley, PA
Just before sunset, I noticed what looked like a planet in the eastern sky about 90 degrees from the horizon. The sun was still up so it was strange to see the bright, planet-like object. I inspected it with binoculars and it seemed to have two smal moons, much like what Jupiter looks like through binoculars. I called to my wife and 16 year old stepson who also saw the object that remained stationary.. My stepson used an astronomy app and told me that it was not Jupiter. His app showed Jupiter in the southwestern sky. Once the sun went down the object completely disappeared.

Santa Barbara, CA
Conditions at the time of the sighting were dark, clear, and windless. While driving southbound on the 154 at the dead top of the pass, I witnessed what at first seemed to be a meteor flying directly overhead in the same direction as I. San Marcos pass summit is at approximately 1000 m in elevation and drops rapidly to sea level. At the summit there is a clear view out over the Santa Barbara channel for about one half mile. The initial brightness of the object as it passed directly overhead entering my field of view through the windshield is estimated at -8, i.e. much brighter than Venus. Within seconds the object had descended to at or below my elevation and was approximately five miles ahead of me now directly over Santa Barbara town. The brightness of the light did not change in this period even though I now witnessed it from behind rather than below. Within thirty seconds the white light changed to red flashing port side and green solid starboard which seemed like "domestic" aircraft but the lights weren't distinct and separated as normal aircraft lighting is. Both red and green lights displayed laser-like qualities rather than incandescent or led. Furthermore the lights seemed to blend with one another to a degree as though seen through a haze. The flashing of the red light was not metered in any sense either as though it was randomly flashing in about one second intervals. At this point my view was obscured (and I hadn't crashed the truck (I refer to this stretch as "the death zone" due to the number of car wrecks here)). Within seconds the view opened back up and the uap was now at least fifteen miles to the southeast over the channel off Port Hueneme. The light now appeared further away but more intense which defies my understanding of the physics of light. At this point my view was obscured. In retrospect, I estimate the object traveled approximately 500' overhead at a rate of 1000 mph.

Standing out in front of my apartment complex, saw a white shiney dot moving quickly across the sky, pulled 2 direct 90 degree turns, then continued off in the direction it was originally heading, it was daytime so details were vague, but multiple 90 degrees turns made it stand out, i believe it was heading east.

Issaquah, WA
Dragon Sighting Issaquah, Washington, U.S.A. September 3, 2019 Between 6:00 - 6:30 PM I was sitting on a park bench in North Issaquah Highland Community in a small park named “Leed Park”. It sits directly on the north side of a “Marshalls Department Store” . I’m sitting on one the two benches facing South. My view is looking dead at the wall of the department store to the front, and there’s a small little forest of trees behind me. I’m in the farmost eastern bench because I can see the southern sky above the building. I’m gazing up at the sky and I barely see way off in the distance a couple of parachutes. From where I was to where they are was about 2–3 miles away, but still in my site. In fact, if I were to walk 50 feet to the left, I could see all the parachutes flying from my vantage point. The actual parachuters appeared like little black dots with a colored parachutes on top of them from where I stood. As I looked at the parachutes, I noticed above them was a darker and bigger black dot. It was above them a couple thousand feet or so. It had wings. It was flying in a giant circular motion like an eagle but it was flying upwards. This was no Eagle, I thought. It was flying in a vortex going upward. I couldn’t believe it. It would flap it wings looking like it was climbing in a struggle. Like a giant sloppy bat. This was very scary to see. It was directly over the parachuters. I’m watching it ascend even in greater heights. The wing span was at least twice as large of that of the parrachuters. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I watched it disappear into a black flat bottom cloud. I could still see the parrachuters but this creature went into this cloud that was coming approximately in my direction. I followed this cloud for about 30 minutes just trying to see if it would pop out somewhere. It was up there somewhere. This creature was gigantic in size. All I could do was call the parachute company the next morning. I told the owner everything I had seen. He was very polite. The location where they parachute is called “Poo Poo” Point. My sighting happened directly over the hot spot flying area. Which is full of flyers. You can see where I was on Google Map, and you can see where Poo Poo point is.

Perhaps not a craft, but definitely unidentified. If anyone has an explanation please post. Unfortunately I have no pictures or video it just didn't occur to me, if anyone does I'd love to re-experience this as I've never seen anything like it. Lights were blazing across the sky for hours, it was was a bit cloudy and at first glance you might assume these light were a laser sky show, someone having fun but I've never seen anything like it. Most lasers, when pointed to the sky from the ground don't just appear in the sky, you can trace the laser to the ground. But there was no hint of a source and this "projection" went quite literally horizon to horizon...quite a feat. As if it were projected from above the clouds. Now as for the lights themselves...several patterns were displayed. The most striking was a double helix that again went horizon to horizon in one direction and the width maybe 15 to 20% of the sky. After awhile the pattern changed to something that made me think of a visual representation of the doppler effect. Two waves crashing over each other encompassing almost the entire sky! And another a seemingly random cacophony of swirls chasing themselves around the sky. Full disclosure, there WERE supposed to be northern lights this weekend, which is why we mostly dismissed it as a group. And if it were only the last described chaotic sequence, i would leave it at that. The lights weren't all that bright, relatively speaking, standing next to a very small campfire and you can't see them. However, there is NO WAY this was northern lights, it was way too structured. and as far as I can tell, through hours of Google, there is no skylight or machine that can effectively do this. Especially legally, and this went on for hours in the middle of nowhere 30 miles from any city lights or venues. Of course, depending on how high these projections or perceived sources were, the area that this may have been visible could potentially be huge. Also, and perhaps unrelated, the clouds further up and to the south had consistent flares of purple light or lightning. Very dense, and completely silent. There was no pattern to the effect. I believe it was a rare lightning of some sort. But maybe I'm wrong? So alot of things that skeptics can use to dismiss this I guess. But there was definitely something wierd going on. Everyone was amazed, a few of us who understand how things work are perplexed by what we saw... Anyone? Ps zero drugs or alcohol were consumed that night. At least by myself.

Mr. Josh Brinkley of Santa Fe, New Mexico/Northern New Mexico- Official Encounter Statement Sept. 01, 2019 - My hunting partner, Danial Lucero of Santa Fe, New Mexico/Northern New Mexico- Official Encounter Statement Sept. 01, 2019 - My hunting partner, and I had been scouting Cerro De La Olla mountain in northern New Mexico for a couple days and were headed up to begin our elk hunt early on opening morning. I left ((male 2 in a good spot near the top of the mountain and headed up a bit further to mine. Around 9:30 a.m., after seeing no elk, I headed toward the small caldera on the peak of this mountain, which I know well. As I approached this caldera, I glanced to my left and saw two, identical figures standing side by side, looking either at me or directly away from me. They stood on the other side of small oak trees or "scrub oak" so I could only see them from their waste up. Naturally, I thought I had run into a couple other hunters, but as I got closer to the edge of the caldera, I couldn't understand what I was looking at. They were about 35-yards from me and I could see them well. Their heads seemed bigger than a humans' and they seemed taller than an average man. I stepped down a small ledge, taking my eyes off them for a couple seconds. When I looked back they were still there, with black torsos and a silver cat- eye shape in the middle of what would be their chests or backs. Their heads seemed to be framed in by two half moon shapes. The one on the right was all black, the left one was a shiny white. I could see no eyes of any kind or facial features on either of them. Compared to the scrub oak, they seemed to be approximatelty 7-feet tall. I repositioned on the other side of a bush, taking my eyes off of them for a few more seconds. When I looked back, they were gone. I was so close that I clould have talked to them. I walked to my left, then all around the bushes between us and the field near us, but the "beings" were nowhere in sight. I'm a logical person so I chalked it up to being the tallest, most identical, alien-space-suit-looking, super-hikers I'd ever seen. Needless to say, I was bothered and I quickly left the area to find Daniel. I reported to him that I'd seen (what I thought) were two hunters on the top of the caldera. Later that day, I confessed to Daniel that what I saw didn't look like two hunters. As odd as it sounded, I explained the details to him and that I thought I may have seen aliens. I could tell he didn't know what to believe. We seemed to laugh it off but it was on my mind all night. Sept. 02, 2019 - The next day, we got up early and went to a different part of the mountain for our morning hunt. We walked for miles without seeing a single sign of elk or deer. We got back to the Jeep around 2:30 p.m. and drove past camp, headed to the northeast side of the mountain to try our luck there. We had been driving for about ten minutes on the road that works its way around the base of the mountain. Suddenly, we spotted what seemed to be a huge tent-like structure in the field in front of us. When we first spotted it, I estimate that we were about 1/2 mile away. The road was very dry, mostly smooth and winding, with some straight-aways, random tight turns, and rocky patches now and then. Driving towards it, our speed varied from 15 to 40 mph. The first thing I said to Daniel was, "What the heck is that thing?" and I remember pointing at it. Daniel also saw it and expressed to me he had no idea what it was. We watched it as we drove. Seeing it, at first it looked like a huge circus tent: white in color with a black diamond shape on the top, near the point. The left side of the "tent" stretched far out, about 5 times the length (or possibly width) of the main part and seemed to be about 1/3 the height (if you were looking at a fighter jet from the side, jet pointing to the left, you would see the tail rudder sticking up on the right and the rest of the jet coming out to the left). We were unable to see the bottom of the "craft" or "structure" due to the rolling hills and winding road.! I thought it looked like a movie set, possibly a huge catering tent or base camp. We studied it for almost a minute. As we got closer, we estimated this "tent" to be at least 50-feet tall and between 150-250 feet long (or wide). Neither one of us were alarmed and again using my logic, I assumed I was looking at a building or something man-made. Believe me when I say that my first thought was not , "Hey look! It's an alien ship." It didn't have many features and appeared to be mostly solid white. I could see some shimmering, as if part of the "stucture" had a sheen to it, with the black point on the top. As it was sitting out in a field, in a flat spot a bit lower than we were, we were unable to see the bottom of it. As we drove, would see most of the "tent" but then as the road dipped, we would see around just the top, then another dip, we could see all but the bottom of it. We couldn't figure it out and I kept assuming it to be the movies. As we approched the "tent" (about an 1/8 mile), I was wondering to myself about the possible explanations for this "stucture". We dipped in the road again and as we came level, the "tent" had simply vanished in a matter of 3 seconds. A structure the size of a small school had just disappeared. There was no dust, no noise, no sign that it had ever been there. You can imagine the words coming out of our mouths... we could not believe it! We looked all around but found nothing, so I slowed down as we neared the place where the "stucture" had been. Now we were speechless as Daniel and I kept looking back and forth at each other in shock. How could something that big just disappear? Both of us saw it and tracked it for quite a while during the car ride. Both of us saw that it had disappeared. We didn't know what to do. We continued a short distance down the road, then I pulled over, staring up the road, and looking back and forth at Daniel. Over and over we asked each other if that really had just happened. My brain hurt. We couldn't make any sense of it. I felt a little numb. We talked about what we'd just seen as we scanned the field for about an hour, but found nothing. Frustrated and confused, we headed back to camp and even spent the next few days hunting...if hunting is what you want to call it. For me, it was more like pacing around the mountain thinking about alien space ships. We spent all of our time together questioning and talking about what we had seen, constantly asking each other if it was real and if it actually had disappeared. We knew the answers and they scared me. My friend, Bill Fenstermaker, sent me a number to a UFO hotline. When I finally called, I spoke with Mr. Davenport who was very helpful with directing us on what to do next. On Friday, 09/06/2019, I called the Taos, NM, news office and spoke with Staci Matlock. We drove into town and spoke with her in person. She seemed very interested so I located on the map where this encounter took place and shared with her everything that I remembered. I was a bit nervous telling our story, but I felt like it needed to be recorded. I believe that the "beings" on the top of the mountain and the possible "mother ship" that we saw, were from another dimension. Maybe they're from outer space, or maybe someone isn't telling us everything. I am now a believer. Joshua Brinkley September 17, 2019. Do not edit without consent from Joshua Brinkley.

Swooped very fast just above me. I first thought I was seeing a shooting star, but thought it was too low for that. I looked closer then and it came to a dead stop where I clearly made out it's shape. It remained for a second or so and then it disappeared. I'd say that it was definitely below cloud height and the size of a bus or larger. It was large enough to see it clearly. It made no sound. I continued to watch the sky for a good 5-10 minutes, but saw nothing again. When I came inside I immediately drew a picture of what I saw. I can't explain what it was, but I saw what I saw.

I was letting my dogs out in my backyard when I looked up and saw two things in the sky. One looked blue and another look like a star. I thought they were stars, but I then saw them move. The blue one moved a little, then the star one moved to the other side of the blue one. The star one moved farther and farther away from the blue one toward the sun. They moved in all directions, so I knew it couldn’t have been a plane. I thought I also saw a red dog in the sky as well, which the star UFO looked like it went to it. They were pretty high up in the sky. There were two planes that passed in between them, so they must have not been low enough for them to see. I tried to show my wife, but she couldn’t see them. They were not right over Medford, but closer to Mt. McLoughlin/Crater Lake National Park area, maybe farther, but in that direction. They probably looked like stars because the sun was out.

The shape of this air craft is very difficult too explain because it had multiple different shapes involved as the design. It looked like something out of a sci-fi movie. It was a about 30 to 40 feet long and 8-12 feet wide. the fying manuevers of this aircraft is very unusual and remarkable. It was able to fly below tree lines at a very slow speed roughly 3 mph, hovering capabilities,and raise itself over the trees. As it flew the back side of the house you can see and hear it. I saw this flashing strobe light through the trees traveling. I see it turn and slow down and raised over the trees as I looked back because I lost visual of the object for split second, it raises up to get visual and turns around and starts coming and speeding up and in a dog fight formation like its going too take me out, decreasing elevation and slows down and hovers over us like its survalencing us at very low elevation but below my tree heights because it had to raise itself in elevation to get over the other tree line. Very unusual air craft. Really neat show in a way and breath taking but I felt very invaded. Im sure lots of ther people in the area heard it. You couldn't miss it. The stranges thing was it was over a residential neighborhood. I didn't take any photos because I couldn't get my camera working properly in time. Mulitple people saw and heard this air craft in the area.

11:30pm...Started seeing a very bright light at the top of the mountain across from our Mountain top view. Distance was around 3,500 feet. Watched the intense white light move around the area where it was hanging out. Watched it for an hour or so. Thought it may have been really bright lights on a 4x4 at the top of the mountain. Then I saw it moving up in the air and this is when I got very curious. I went and setup my 50x spotting scope on a tripod and zoomed in on the light. This is when I started saying out loud “what the f$@! Is that!!!” With my eye it just looked like 1 bright light. Through the spotting scope it was 2 concentric rings. Both rings had a number of round lights/spheres. 6 to 8 equally spaced lights on the outer ring. 4 to 6 equally spaced lights on the inner ring. All the lights appeared to be the same size. It appeared to be hovering just over the treetops moving around in the same general area. At times it would quickly squiggle up mayb! e 100 feet or more then squiggle down to where it was. After a couple of hours of hovering and moving around a bit, it seemed to have landed as it was now stationary and the light was filtered through the trees. Although there still seemed to be a little movement. My two buddies were all witness to this. We were all very perplexed as to what we were seeing. Watched this for a total of 6 hours. Finally fell asleep from exhaustion. Tried getting photos through the scope with our phones..did not work.

Several different UFO'S of all types. Some don't move at all except erratically in one area-others move across the sky erratically not in a straight line. Some move across the sky and are not erratic. A retired nurse with odd hours.
