I was laying in my backyard looking at the clouds when a black/dark gray circular object comes out of the clouds in the distance. It moved in a diagonal line across the sky before disappearing back into the clouds. Person I was with strangely enough didn’t see it when we were both staring at the sky. Whatever it was quiet and didn’t have any lights.

The sky was bright blue and clear. As I was preparing an outdoor fire for myself and my 2 kids, I noticed a plane flying off to my east. This is extremely common, as we live in the flight path for DCA. However, beyond the aircraft, at an extremely high altitude was several (12-20) white circular objects all moving together going from south to north just as the plane was traveling. At first, I didn’t think much of it but as I was getting the firewood ready I began to think: this is extremely odd. So, I said to my kids: look at this guys, dad has never seen anything like this. My six year old observed the objects too and we were both puzzled by the I thought maybe they could be weather balloons but I do not believe they are released in such a large number. I tried to take a picture but my iPhone would not zoom that far, these objects were hard to see with the naked eye.

I believe we were 100% visited by aliens. Time was missing and our drink koozie being out of place was a giveaway too. Marks on my body were found the next day as well.

I have pictures from my father. It’s a clear picture of an unidentified aircraft hovering under an airplane. Circle shape. Event took place around 2pm in Tallahassee fl. My family contacted me as soon as it happened. Someone please contact me for more details. Unfortunately I’m unable to post the pictures along with this post.

Went out on a late night walk, went to a hill overlooking downtown to admire the city and (mostly) the super moon. It’s hard to see stars because we’re in the inner city, and only handful standout. There were 3 stars in a triangle formation, and suddenly one broke off. It was moving very fast and flying irrationally moving in all directions, before stabilizing and flying horizontally. It was originally a very bright white and seemed to dim down before all of a sudden it flashed to black and vanished.

Gresham, OR
Friday night 8:30 while in Gresham, OR. Winco parking lot we observed 2 of these objects 2 minutes apart moving on same path at relatively low altitude approaching from the west and casually turning Northeast. When approaching we could see yellow orange colored light NOT flashing. When they turned the lights disappeared and we saw a perfectly circular totally black object. It was dusk so there still was some background lighting but this did not resemble a helicopter or plane I've seen. There was no noise from them we could hear. At about 8:35 an airliner was coming in low for approach to PDX to the west. The second object like the first continued NE in a straight line and appeared to fly underneath crossing the plane. I first wondered if this was a balloon but it moved too fast and precisely and considered maybe an ultralight but too fast and they're very noisy but the totally black circular shape was something I have never seen and I follow aviation. My wif! e did capture a still image of one of the objects approaching from the West which is not an approach pattern for planes flying to Portland international airport. That still image shows the lighted object. There's also a video taken after the 2nd object made a turn Northeast though it was easy to see with the naked eye the video may be difficult to see the black circular objects without enhancing because of parking lot lights obscuring the image at dusk. Still pick and video can be submitted if requested. I will note there is a municipal airport in Troutdale Oregon which was in the general direction these objects were moving by the time we lost sight of them moving past the shopping center. The proximity of the second object apparently flying underneath the approaching airliner at low altitude was particularly concerning and they appeared quite close to the point where the FAA should take notice. I would be curious if Portland international or Troutdale airport or the airlin! e reported the object approaching.

Object appears as a white ball with vapors strewing around off the front of the ball it as if it was a meteor, but traveled in a straight line going from west to east at approximately 15000 feet. Suddenly the vapor ceased coming off the front of the ball shape object rolling off the sides to the rear dissipating as the ball continued to the east to the point where it seemed to fade from the sky. The sky was very clear this morning at 6:00 and stars could still be seen.

I was in my backyard and I saw some planes passing by. As one passed by a dark circular shaped object was floating stationary off in the distance . I stared at it for many seconds and tried to capture it on my phone and my video wasn’t working at that moment. For some strange reason. It remained stationary then I got up to get a closer look. And it began slowly moving to the left and then poof disappeared!

When looking at the weather radar a round object was detected. The radar signal showed the clouds changing as if a pebble was tossed into a still pond. The radiating waves from the object caused the radar or the clouds to ripple out in a circle.

I was bird watching, as I was looking up at the sky I noticed something circle shaped color of aluminum foil in the sky at first I thought it was a plane then I realized it looked around and the sun making the color stand out It just stayed floating I didn't take my eyes off it about 20 min passed.then it just went straight up. I know what I saw and it wasn't a plane.

Kent, WA
I was driving north on the Kent Black Diamond Rd. I had passed Jenkins Creek and there was farmland to my left. All of a sudden at around 9:50 PM PST, I saw a little white circle travelling between 60 and 120 mph up off in the left part of the sky, my left. It went down in a diagonal, the direction of the letter N, and disappeared. It was not a plane or a reflection. It was too big to be a star, and the edges of it were too well defined, very circular. Bright white like the moon, kind of. It could have been a drone, but why was it going so fast? I was able to estimate the speed of the light because I drove under highway 18 a minute later. The bright circular object was going at least as fast as those cars, maybe up to twice as fast.

Corona, CA
On the night of April 16, 2021, at approximately 9:48pm, I was in my backyard waiting for my German Shepherd to do her business. I was looking at my phone and I noticed she had walked up next to me. As I looked over to her, I saw she was looking up to the sky behind me and she had her head cocked in a manner to say “What’s that?” I turned around and looked in the direction she was looking, which was almost true North, and I saw a very ultra white, very bright round light. Although I can’t say for sure, my initial thoughts were that it was maybe a mile or mile and a half away (using Magnolia Av. to my north as a possible point of reference), traveling slowly in a westerly direction. I quickly brought up my cell phone camera, switching it from photo to video, and hit the record button, as something was strange about this light. My first thought was that it was a drone, however there were no red/green direction lights on it that I could see, and there were no sounds coming from it’s direction that you associate with a drone’s propellers, and the size seemed way too big for a drone that distance away. The object’s direction of flight took it behind a large tree in the parkway behind and next to my house. I was able to watch it continue westward through breaks in the tree’s foliage. I could see the moon to the west, also behind the tree. It was in the waxing crescent phase. The object continued and visually appeared to pass to the left and under the moon, where I lost it behind the heavy tree foliage. I tried to position myself to see if it would appear below the tree’s foliage but I couldn’t see it anymore. I could only guesstimate the distance it traveled as maybe to Main St., approximately a mile and a half west of me, however it may have continued much farther. I posted my video on a local social media site, wondering if anyone else had seen it. One female posted she saw it and thought it was a drone. Another female posted saying she saw it from her windows and jumped out of bed. A third female posted the event was “filmed in (the city of) Murrieta too” (a city 30 miles south). A male posted he also saw it, saying it disappeared fast when he went to take a video. He said he and 2 others reported it to the UFO Reporting Center. As with so many others, I’m on the fence whether to believe in UFO’s or not, but the stories have always fascinated me. I am a 30 year honorably retired sergeant from the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department.

Original sighting 04/10/21 2am So.Texas thousands of circles with a ufo/meteor entering atmosphere and turning away. Tonight, 10-12 circles are back. Spread out criss crossing like they are scouting or looking for something. I sent infrared video clips from long video just before this from 04/10/21 2am. My phone is not working(no signal) and computer/internet very slow. last few days/nights.

Terre Haute, IN
It was a clear non windy evening at near dusk last Saturday. As I was traveling about a half mile of where I live in the country in the southwestern part of Vigo county outside of Terre Haute IN, I saw what I first thought was a peculiar looking drone flying over the big farm field near the corner of Curry and Sullivan moving West. The colors and size as it approached me was too different to what I have ever seen so I quickly pulled over my car and opened my car door for a cellphone picture. I then realized it was aware of me as it quickly changed direction moving back East. It had a circular rotation of the center four lights that turned independent to it's flight path. I couldn't hear any sound as it slowed down from maybe at most 30 mph to almost stationary observing me taking pictures. All were blurry except for the one I will send you. The photo has the same two colors of bright neon like Pink and lite Blue. The two rectangular Pink in the front were po! sitioned lengthwise and the other 2 behind them were lite Blue and also lengthwise but smaller. For some reason the photo merges the other lights in the center but you can still see the same colors and circular shape. I had to leave because there was a car coming from the intersection nearby as I was outside of my car, so I left. I did some searching on available drones for sale and nothing that I can find remotely looks like that. Also it's hard to judge distance but I would say it was about a 100 feet high at it's closest to me and would have been bigger than any drone, about 10 feet wide at most. So I definitely think it's some other type of unidentified intelligence for sure!

I looked up into the sky and saw what at first looked like a shooting star, a ball of light zoomed FAST down and then it went straight up. This was MUCH faster than an airplane and it went down and then up very fast, color was redish and seemed to be blinking.

Observed silent orange, round object cross the starlit sky. Upon observation, I alerted my sister to record with her cell phone. There was no change to my initial observation compared to the captured video. This was not a meteor or satellite type crossing as to my opinion. Altogether, the object was the same orange type glow with no trail, no change in color or trajectory.

Fort Lauderdale, FL
At approximately midnight, on Thursday, April 8th, 2021, my fiance alerted me to something occurring outside. What I saw was similar to something I have seen decades ago but what occured was unlike anything I have ever experienced in my life. Approximately 1,000 feet above us, was a silent aircraft with lights colored white, green and red, flashing in a circular motion. I remained outside, watching the aircraft approach, while my fiance went inside to get his cell phone. As the craft approached me overhead from the West, I was approximately 4 feet away from my doorway, on the sidewalk area of an "L" shaped apartment building, looking up. Suddenly two green beams of light emerged from the aircraft and the same color but much less dense filled the space in between. The distance of the two light beams widened as they approached me, forming somewhat of a triangle, the base of which was sweeping the ground directly in front of me and towards me, nearly enveloping me. I stepped backwards as it and the lights approached. I felt I was its target, being directly in the center of its two beams and field of light which continued to approach me, quickly. My door was still opened. As I backed up, I grabbed my door in fear, yelled to my fiance, stepped inside & closed the door. I half jokingly told my fiance I almost got swept up by aliens and he told me that was what happened to him before he came to get me, only the aircraft was traveling East to West when it happened to him, while he was standing at the far edge of our property, approximately 70 feet away from our door. So, the aircraft traveled East to West, 'scoped' my fiance, then traveled West to East towards me and did the same. Together we exited our apartment shortly thereafter and watched the aircraft travel farther East, still fairly low to the ground and silent, but without beams emitting from it. Only the red, green and white lights continued to flash, as we watched it travel farther away. He took pictures at this time, as well as immediately after it 'swept' me. I ran back inside to get my phone and car keys. I took video at this time but it was rather far away. We decided to try to get closer to it by using our vehicle. The aircraft began to fly South as we began to drive East. We pulled into a sidestreet and I attempted to take video of the aircraft again. It remained silent, without emitting beams and continued to fly South, farther away. When we arrived back to our parking lot, I searched online who to call for a ufo report. I called the number and the gentlemen suggested I & my fiance write separate reports and submit them. It is now 2:29am, April 9th and I am still shaken up a bit, wondering if anyone else has experienced this or saw what took place just a few hours ago.
