High Altitude craft I thought was a plane flying in roughly a northerly direction until it split into two craft with each craft immediately and instantly changing direction. One craft proceeding roughly east while the other proceeding south. The direction changes were instantaneous with no long turning just immediately going in the other directions. No known craft can change direction like that at those speeds. I was in the Military and have witnessed a lot of military craft but these did impossible things and moved at amazing speeds.

Hot Springs, AR
It was sometime early after midnight I had just returned home from making a late night milk run for my infant son. As I pull up to my driveway, outside of the driver side window, I see what I thought was the moon with a very bright orange tent to it so I went to grab my Phone so I could take a picture that’s when I noticed that this object was not only not the moon, but that there were two of them and they were moving. I got out of my car and immediately turned my video recorder on. They gave absolutely no sound whatsoever and couldn’t have been moving faster than 25 to 35 miles an hour. If I had to guess I would say they were about 3000 feet off the ground. The one in the front eventually lined up with the street that I was on and stopped. The other one followed behind it a little slower and sort of lined up next to it. It hesitated for a moment but then flew under the other craft and stopped for a moment making a Vertical line. This only lasted for about 10 ! seconds before the bottom craft continued to make what would end up being a half circle and lined up again on the other side of the craft that was stationary. Both crafts eventually flew off in the distance no faster than they had moved when I first laid eyes on them. I was fortunate enough to be able to record the incident on my cell phone. The footage is a little bit shaky as I am struggling to process what I’m seeing as it’s happening. These craft look to be orb shaped however it almost looks as though there was a slight tail coming off of them. I don’t know how to describe it better than that. Overall the craft were red but in the center there was more of a brighter orange type glow so the red coloring would’ve been more of an afterglow. No sound was emitted from these objects during the entire duration. In the video the only sound you hear is of me talking my cats who honestly sound a little concerned given how they were reacting my car running in the background and crickets. I don’t know what this was but I do not believe that it was something that was man-made. If it is they did a damn good job of convincing me otherwise.

During a servere lightning storm there was a beam of white light coming down behind the clouds and was visible between two clouds. This beam was thicker than the lightning and was straight as an arrow coming down at a 25 degree angle.

Alpine, TX
On Monday, August 19th, at somewhere around 10:00 pm in Alpine, Texas. Me and two friends had stepped outside for a cigarette. As we normally do we layed on our backs and admired the night sky as there is very little light pollution where we're from. Me and one of my friends both at the same time verbally exclaimed at something we were seeing. It appears to be an almost bird-like crescent shaped object moving through the sky. It was invisible but we could still see it. It was almost, cartoonishly invisible as the outline of it was pronounced but the inside of the object was invisible. It seemed almost as if it was like a magnifying glass, warping the view of the stars above it as it traveled. It was completely dead silent. I'm unable to determine what it's elevation was. I saw it for 5-7 seconds, then lost track of it when I stood up to see it better. My friend claims to have seen it continue flying then dissapear into the horizon. Had my friend not seen it. I'm almost certain that I would have dismissed it. But now I'm inclined to believe that it was some sort of flying object. Whether it was government technology or an alien spacecraft, I am unaware. All I know is that I did see it.

Kensington, MD
i got up from sleep to go to the bathroom afterwards i was looking out the third floor window at the woods in back of the house looking for nocturnal animals. i saw a blink out of the corner of my right eye and immediately thought it was a lightning bug because it was in the tree line. Then there was a much larger blink that had the shape of a twinkie. It pulsed about like a light on the top of a tower. Not rapid like collision lights on a jet. There was a low cloud cover and whatever this was was slightly in the clouds, low. We live in the flight path for Reagan nat airport so i am used to seeing commercial aircraft. Usually in fog the aircraft turn on their landing lights. I think i have seen a plane where the collision avoidance lights strobed together, although what i saw moved slow and pulsed slowly and the whole object was the same brightness. There was no noise and it was low probably 600 feet AGL. No navigation lights either. also the path that it was traveling i should have seen it sooner b/c it would have gone in front of me which it just sort of started it pulse run to my right.

Ant out of site in the upper white clouds, and gone... object was about 2 football fields large, an straight lines of flight. Wsa about 1 1/2,air miles away....

Not sure where to report this anomaly. Atmospheric bright lights and huge explosions likely seen and heard by at least 100,000 people if not many times more. Woke up to an unbelievably bright flash of light then what sounded like the loudest longest lasting thunder I and many ever experienced. The what sounded like thunder lasting and rattling properties for what could be described as perhaps 80 square miles for at least 30 seconds non stop with a following episode shortly after. There were no news reports, no web information other than people ringing in from at least 5 county’s in and around the Salt Lake City and Utah Valley Counties on reddit. https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2Fr%2FSaltLakeCity%2Fcomments%2Fd5eo3k%2Fholy_freaking_crap_was_i_the_only_one_jolted%2F%3Futm_source%3Dshare%26utm_medium%3Dios_app&data=02%7C01%7C%7Cc6e35a03d35e4f0aa71208d73c877cf8%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637044424917789773&sdata=VTcO74guO4imZUoZKCxcU1ev1qFulzwHH3r1FV1Bwf4%3D&reserved=0

Chico, CA
Large ufo structure class sighting. Additional drone type ufo doing repairs along edges of large structure. In the space where the large structure sat, there was a clearly definable dark, very dark area, which was extremely distinguishable from the sky which was starting to get lighter by the minute due to the sun rising. There is no possibility that it was a cloud, it was precise and had an exact shape. I couldn't take an adequate picture, but I drew a picture of the approximate shape. If it weren't buried In a pile of old files, I would post it. However, the large structure wasn't the only thing that convinced me it had to be an alien origin. In the center of the larger object it appeared a set of lights began moving to possibly open up a what I would assume to be a hangar type area? And then a light appeared and began moving along the outer edges of the overall object very precisely. Moving most likely at hundreds of miles an hour. It would stop every so often and "light up" the area it looked as though it was repairing the hull of something for only fractions of a second to a second or two at most. Every so often it would move much quicker between what I would call " apparent repair points" and changed directions as it went along the structure multiple times, with very precise movements. The overall structure took up about 1/4-1/3 of the sky that was visible within our eyesight and leaning back to see as much as we could. My girlfriend and stone cold sober roommate witnessed in addition to myself. I probably should have posted this much earlier but I have been skeptical of what I saw considering how crazy it was. Also have been searching for any account of an identical sighting. I've never seen anything like this before and this is coming from someone who has seen a dozen different ufos with a dozen different people. It made me feel incredibly small. To anyone who doesn't believe this story, that's up to you. But trust me I know what we saw and I am only posting this in hopes of creating a better account of sightings such as this. I probably could add more detail and try to make this post more legit seeking but that's again not my point. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Lubbock, TX
I was watching a clip I filmed, I was actually filming small clips as I drove of an industrial area of Lubbock for an art reference as I was driving back home with my family to Abernathy (just north of Lubbock). It seems normal, like as if plane tracers. Then it seems like something is flying side by side, then behind the FIRST trail at the top something starts flowing brighter (as if it's being fired on or speeding up possibly?) Then flashing sequence lights seem to come out of ...well nowhere but around in proximity to the first trail O-o. Honestly, I am stumped.

Oklahoma City, OK
Hi I have witnessed craft every night now for 3 months I know that may sound crazy but it very true I am a very sane person to tell the truth I never believed in this stuff. 3 months ago I began noticing starange lights in sky . I started climbing on the roof at night one night I woke up on the roof after falling asleep and all around me was a smoke or cloud like substance that had a weird smell and I looked and not 10 feet from my face to my left was a very very large craft it looked as if it was made from black glass very sleek . I was very shocked that it made no sound. It slowly backed up about 50 yards and very fastly was gone at first I thought it disappeared but it just zipped off well without sound. Since then I have saw other types of craft and also more of the triangles also. The craft are coming progressively closer each night about 2 weeks ago I started seeing another style of craft very close every night I’m not really sure why me why they are n! ear me but every night even when I leave my home I see the triangle ships follow me through my whole trip. I had contacted mufon when all this all began at first the ships used to stay farther out but mufon sent a investigator who was amazed and confirmed the sighting of these craft. Now these craft come substantially closer every single night for the last 3 months these ships always has some type of cloud substance around them I believe they somehow create this stuff because it help conseal them. Something I might also add ever since contacting mufon I have also been seeing a lot of drones following me which I believe could be government drones I see a very large drone a lot very very close and this drone is a large square platform type drone with a wheel at all four corners and it has multiple cameras the difference in these drones and why I believe they are government is these things are semi loud to extremely loud and all the exterterestial craft is silent. I’m not sur! e of your procedures but I hope they are different because I w! as very disappointed in how my experience with them was very underwhelming. I decided to reach out to ufo center because yesterday I believe I was possibly abducted for the second time, I contacted mufon after the first. I don’t remember but small bits but the whole day is missing for both me and my girlfriend the first abduction I had a small incision on the back on my head and she had something protruding from her ear lobe. This time she had no marks but I have a small incision to my lower left back.

Was on way to test for probation at 625 am. As I headed down my normal route on state fair drive notice what looked like a plane with no tail shoot across sun rise. As I headed west down road noticed it was closer then I realized it stopped and was floating about 200 feet above me and was a black v shape craft with 5 lights. It stayed in one spot at I watched it. No way this was a drone or plane.

Dear NUFORC, First and foremost, I would like to say "thank you" for the work that you do. It was a lovely, clear Saturday and I was home after directing morning music rehearsals at a local church. I was elated because the early evening was beatific in its summer breeze. Coming home to perfect summer weather was nice, as our church building has a cold-and-spooky vibe that leaves me drained. I was standing up on my porch, just enjoying the blue sky while my friend sat down to check her texts, when I suddenly saw something 25-50 ft overhead - something that I still cannot explain, as I have found little to no evidence. It was a highly reflective, metallic, glittery, shapeless poof of sparks that resembled blinking stars or fireworks. The blob was about 5 ft in length, had many sparks, appeared out of thin air and disappeared the same way. Toward the end of its appearance, the sparks seemed to coordinate with one another to make a formation that reminded me of a flock of birds flying very high overhead, at sunset. I can definitely confirm that this was not that. This was especially strange to me, and reminded me that I have a friend who has been researching UFO's for many years, and that she has found that they like to hide by imitating their environment. Back to the event, I was slack-jawed by what I was seeing, yet immediately alarmed my friend who was not able to look up from her screen to see the 2-5 second event. I would like to add that we were soberly sharing food, and that I don't suffer from any type of hallucinations. Finally, I was not scared at all by the proximity of this sighting...just blown away.

Gold in color, possibly fireball but very small. i believe it to be a spiritual entity. There aren't any other reporting sites to my knowledge, and surely we should document truth and experiences. it behaved like an orb. shot up and disappeared. it came out of another dimension for sure because i seen it with my very own eyes.

Started out by just seeing a bright yellow/white light in the sky just sitting still for a while - definitely wasn't a star. Kept looking at it for around 5 min and some dimmer red lights (like speckles) brighten up all around the bright light. My eyes were locked on to it and I see air crafts fly above the trees. Their shape were four "donuts" arranged with one on the top/bottom and one each on the side; Think like the body arrangement of a butterfly with one "donut" for its head, tail and wings. They zoomed by incredibly quickly and that was the last I saw of them. The bright light slowly moved out of view over the course of 25 min.

Venice, CA
Looking up high from the loading dock of the Design Center in Venice (homeless at the time) towards the E - N.E. did I view a blue-ish light, dot, spot in the nighttime sky. And this blue-ish light ascended up to an even higher level beyond where the sky changes colours to atmosphere and before my eyes as I tracked its ascension it dissolved, achieved such an altitude it left earthly confines IMO. *Possible Earth/Moon transportation vehicle? **If this is a duplicate report please disregard...

Boulder City, NV
The day was clear with high scattered clouds. I left the local grocery store and went to my car. I always look up at the sky at the clouds. They were scattered and big and fluffy towards the southwest. I saw a commercial jet coming from the north (Las Vegas) heading south as if it had just taken off from the airport. Very low. I watched it and as it got about 11 o'clock, almost above me I saw a Long tube like object with a smaller silver sphere in the front, a very large sphere in the middle and a more squared off section in the back. The center sphere had a large ring around it that appeared separate from the sphere. The back squared off portion appeared to have smaller ports of some kind on the back. It appeared right behind the plane I had been watching and it was significantly larger than the plane. I tried to get my phone out to take a photo but it was moving and as it moved it appeared to blank out in places and while I could still see it shining, I could not make its outline out or see it clearly anymore. By the time I got a photo it was only a tiny dot. It moved way quicker than the plane was moving. I did draw a photo of what I saw.

The object seamed to have a diamond shape with a projection on the bottom that seemed to sway. It move sporadically and the project had at least two lights that flashed every few seconds. It seem to stop, and hover in one place, before lowering behind the treelike. As it was receding, I managed to look at it in a telescope and it was bright enough to make out the diamond shape and projection with lights. Once it stopped moving sporadically, the swing of the projection stopped as well. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

At 18:30PM I SAW 3 PLANES FLYING IN TRIANGLE FORMATION. A MINUTE LATER, I SAW A BLINKING LIGHT IN THE SAME AREA. BEFORE THE BLINKING LIGHT VANISHED, THERE WAS ANOTHER BRIGHT EXPLOSION OF SOME KIND RIGHT NEXT TO IT.

It was around 8:12 when i went outside to skate then when i was sitting down to take a break i saw this big X with blue and orange lights on the end of each corner it only lasted like 3 minutes all it did was hover it produced zero sound it didn’t occur to me to take a photo or video because i did not think much of it but when i tried to take a video the lights dimmed and kinda began to blur like the lights looked as if they were blurry then it just went black and i didn't see the thing again it was the first time id ever seen something like this and i honestly think it was extraterrestrial if anyone has seen this please share
