I noticed an object moving unlike an airplane or helicopter so i went to get my binoculars and set them on top of my handrail so they would be stationary and i saw a globe shaped object whose lights resembled lasers switching bluish hues and orange and seemed to be transparent where there was no color and it was brilliantly lite up I can't understand how nobody else couldn't see this object. Venus or stars? PD

A line of 3 colored lights (green, blue, and red) traveling south in a vertical formation, changed into a triangle shape (still traveling south) followed by 4 sets of two vertical white lights. The collection spread out, changed from lines and triangles and into an almost snakelike shape slithering across the sky, the lights flowed together as one massive looking spineless serpant slithering left and right across the sky. The space inbetween the lights were darker than the sky and made the stars it passed over shaded or not as bright. The lights turned east and all of the colored lights turned white and spread into different directions. Less than 5 minutes later, another 3 vertical lights (red, green, and white) (moving much slower than the first set) shifted into a triangular shape heading south. The shape looked like it started sputtering, then turned onto it's side. I could then see it wasn't just a flat object there was a distinct thickness to it. It stayed sideways for about 45 seconds then flipped back and 2 of the lights went out. The last light went out as the object flew between 2 stars and disappeared. The last object i saw was circular, traveling north, the front of it was covered in multiple different colored flashing lights with no lights visible on the base. As the object flew over me, it turned face down with the multicoloured flashing lights staring down at me. I could see layers of different colors flashing in front of and behind one another. Once the object passed me the front faced back up and North. Again no lights visible from the bottom. No lights visible from the back until the object was 1 maybe 2 miles away. There were 2 orange lights, one on the left and one in the right. Throughout this whole experience there was no sound made by any of the lights or objects I saw.

I noticed around 4:45am a bright light hovering outside my bedroom window. It is high up in the sky. I noticed two other light things forming a triangle pattern in the sky with the one bright object. The other two were higher up and were flashing different colors of green, blue, red, and orange. I went outside on the back porch to make sure I was seeing what I was seeing. I then got my husband who was in the garage and made him go out back with me, so that I had someone else witnessing this with me, so I knew I wasn't seeing things. He went inside and got me a pair of binoculars and we looked at the objects thru them. The brightest one also had other colors in it, and the object kept changing shape. I even had him get on his phone and ask siri what planes were flying over head, which there was an american airlines flight and fedex planes that were flying over head at the time as well as some company with the name of mission in the title. Some of the! planes went right by the objects, but dropped or raised altitude when going by them. This isn't the first time I have seen something odd like this. It is 6:07 am and they are still outside hovering. Also over the course of the event, the stars have shifted positions in the sky and the sun is now coming up, but the only object remaining is the brightest one now. Also it has not shifted its position. My husband has taken a video with his iphone. once we figure out how to get it onto my computer, I will email it or put it on a disk and mail it to you. Also I live just outside Pataskala, Ohio, in a little town called Outville.

Frostburg, MD
While heading west on I-68 just west of the mountainous Garrett/Allegany County, Maryland, line, at about 19:15 EDT on 9-17-2015, my 8 year old daughter and I were chasing the sunset. We exited the freeway after cresting Big Savage Mountain at the Finzel Road exit as the sun set through the trees. My daughter exclaimed “What is that light?”. Sure enough, 15-20 degrees north of the now just set sun was a bright yellow light 15-20 degrees above the horizon. At the time it appeared stationary and higher than it was wide. We continued west on U.S. 40 for 3-4 minutes until we could pull over at a local business on Long Stretch to get the binoculars out (not the best binoculars but functional), with a full view of the horizon. It appeared to be a bright yellow arch seen at an oblique angle, probably reflecting the setting sun. We observed it for 6-8 minutes, sharing the binoculars, when it disappeared. It reappeared within 2-3 minutes but had now totally changed shape and color. With the naked eye, it was just a bright orangeish light. With the binoculars, it looked like a dark oblong object in a horizontal position with a bright reddish light at the center base, and appeared to have moved 2-3 degrees to the southeast. It was more than Venus bright. A female patron of the business saw us and came to see what we were doing and saw this version, as well. It lasted 4-5 minutes and disappeared again. Another 2-3 minutes later, it appeared a couple of more degrees to the southeast (co! ming slightly towards us and moving to our left) for another 2-3 minutes, until disappearing for good. There were no contrails but a couple of jets with contrails were visible to the west during the same time period and also clearly reflected the sun. Weather was clear and high sixties with a very light haze (smog from Ohio River valley?) Any suggestions or similar sitings?

This UFO appeared over the skies of lower Manhattan after a focused sky gazing CE5 Meditation on September 17, 2015. The orb appeared out of no where and was brightly lit. This was the second one to appear in 2 days, but this time I was armed with a camera. After zooming in, it appears to have been morphing in what looked like a cross from a set of balloons and a cauliflower. It eventually vanished into thin air shortly after the video. Usually during visual meditations, I see UFO craft on an almost weekly basis and sometimes more in the NYC sky. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwVVmqCx4sQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbNNmvPwM7A

They both hovered for a minute and then disappeared in the same direction they came from. I almost believed for a minute that they were bombs coming from the sky. I don't know how else to explain them. It definitely shook me up. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

While outside with our dog in our yard sometime around 3:10am to 3:20am early Thursday morning, September 10th, I looked up into the northeast sky seeing a light colored object. It was flying from the north to the south similar to a satellite, which at first I thought it was. Suddenly though the object became very bright, emitted a brief burst that created a halo around it lasting for a few seconds, then within another 2 seconds it turned sharply left (east) quickly getting smaller and smaller and disappeared. There was no sound. That night, the sky was especially clear, with more stars visible than most often.

What I first noticed odd about it was the direction and location at which it was heading, not on a flight path. It had 2 or 3 separate yet distinct "V" shaped pieces to it or to possibly 3 individual crafts. Each "V" panel had roughly 8 white constant (no blinking or flashing) that made up the V shape itself. While flying directly overhead at a constant speed and course, the 3 V panels where shifting left, right, forward, backwards, even rolling and each was doing a different pattern from the others all while they kept formation and each shifted directions in sequence..... Hard to explain, to give you an example, imagine the constellation of the little dipper (distinctly grouped stars making a pattern that resembles a simlple looking cooking pot---almost symmetrical square and a straight line, yet these triangles were symmetrical). Now picture looking up at the sky and seeing 3 identical yet seperate little dipper constellations that seem to be caugt on each other just floating through space, tumbling.... Kind of like a swarm, yet even closer together, giving off the appearance of one craft with shifting pieces not in any particular order, just gracefully slow dancing with each other. After realizing that this was like nothing I have ever seen, labeled it a real UFO and excitedly called out to a few of my co-workers who were outside as well some 40 feet away, they didnt even look in the sky but instead noticed how ecstatic I was seconds after seeing this thing... So no witnesses in my vicinity. I explained what I saw to a few other co-workers and my family only to get a response of unbelief. Not once did I use the term "aliens" or "space craft," I called it a UFO just for the reason being that I couldnt justify what the hell kind of craft it was. I used my hands to actually show them how the shifting looked (which I wish I could show you guys, I am sure there have been other identical/simular descriptions reported as well.)

Whiskey Creek/Parksville (Canada), BC · Canada
Last night, I saw three separate encounters with RED lights. in the sky....on the highway from Comox to Nanaimo BC... The lights appeared different each time I witnessed them...they had different patterns each time they presented themselves the first on the right side of the highway near Whiskey Creek was a red light that expanded and dropped a long red line of light...then about 10 minutes later on the left side of the highway...they appeared as two large red circles/red dots...with halos pulsing.....another ten minutes passed and on the right side of the highway it appeared to look light a craft circular in shape as the red light created the shape ...this was Parksville area… I was communicating to them as I am a believer.. not my first encounter over the years

Rather not say., IL
A short while later, I saw abother large light coming in the direction the others had just went. It turned from a giant yellowish white mass to a very small blue moving dot in an instant and with the change traveled much much faster. When it was out by the fields it became large. And seemingly mimicked a star. At this point I decided I should walk towards it to get a better look. It didn't seem to be going anywhere, and I had noticed other large moving objects around the fields suddenly stop and look like stars. It was kind of unsettling. After awhile of walking towards the object, I saw that it was above an overgrown field I could not walk into. Besides this was another field that was mainly dirt and dying remainders of plants. I saw a smaller object come from the direction of the light and head towards another of the once moving lights that was above the dirt field. It was extremely low to the ground. So much so that even with it being night time I could easily make out an outline which was reminded me of a flat skipping stone. While the smaller object headed for the second light, I noticed the first light "danced" every so often. It made motions up, down, side to side, diagonal, and loops and circular motions. It really didn't seem to have any reasoning behind the movement. I started to leave feeling uncomfortable and as I walked back I noticed in a 3rd field another dancing light that was growing very large, then dimming to my front and left, then to my front right I saw a massive moving light that I believe to be a meteorite. It was very bright blue and was only in sight for a second before disappating. On my way home (less then 2 blocks) I also saw two shooting stars. The reason I bring this up is because my feeling at the time was the lights had an interest in this stuff. Anyway I ended up sitting outside watching these lights dance about and periodically set themselves in different spots in the sky till almost 3am. They would move sometimes just bluntly to a new spot then all the sudden stop and stay in the new spot awhile or would make the dancing motion and stop in a different spot. When the second way happened it was always shorter distance change but still very obvious. For most the night I took note of four main large lights but du! ring that time I spent my energy mostly observing the closest one, which was very active. It moved in the same line, up down, u shape movements as before. It also would dim greatly and then get very large. It changed color from blue, red, white, and yellow. Moving lights would come seemingly from nowhere underneath or around the big object usually all at once then with a cool off period. I saw both a beam and smaller floating objects come from the 4 large lights. The beam came from a light behind my house that had been moving to the fields. The beam went straight ahead of the object and then another to its side. During this time I also saw three more shooting stars, one looked like it almost hit the object in the sky, and it promptly moved out of the way. I saw another meteor as well which was also abnormally large and also was out of sight in a flash. It had a green tail instead of blue. There were several lights of red that flashed a lot that seemingly paroled the area the entire span of these hours as well. They would make circles around moving slowly and one in particular on three separate occasions got so close to the big light object I thought they would hit each other. Each time the ball of light would move. This red light object looked like a normal plane. I made an observation. And an experiment took place, at which I could get a reaction from the light, and it's behavior changed completely. I would like for now what took place with that to be kept to myself. But I think it's important to say I did experience the object react to certain things someone did on the ground. I am 28 years old. I don't have a degree, I'm a cook at a restaurant. I have no photographic or video evidence to back this up. But I also have no history of mental illness. I also have nothing but redicule to gain as well as lost time writing this. So, I assume this won't help anyone figure out anytime soon what these objects were, aliens, atmospheric stuff, easily explained things etc. But that's my account of what I saw around my house.

Just a note - I'm an engineer with a graduate degree and a I'm generally a rational person. I was not under the influence of anything when I observed this and was in good health. I viewed this object from a second-floor bedroom window to ground level on a dark night. No reflective surfaces were nearby. Object was 2-1/2 to 3 feet long, perhaps 6-7" wide on average, mostly oblong, transparent white with amorphous "fuzzy" borders. Its motion was generally slow and steady and it was moving along shrubbery/plants with occasional pauses. I wondered if my eyes were not focusing and if it was some kind of whitish rabbit or mink, which would have been highly unusual but not out of the question, but then its shape altered, kind of how a bubble alters as it's being blown from a wand, if that makes sense; it's size did not change appreciably. After moving along the garden, it came toward the house along a perpendicular line (for the most part.) Once it came close enough I could no longer see it; I went downstairs to ground level and did not see it. I returned upstairs and it was no longer in view. It is hard to describe how it moved, but when I went snorkeling recently, I realized the movement of fish along a coral reef was strikingly similar. So I don't know if it was actually on the ground per se, or perhaps just above it.

West Point, VA
At about 10:45 PM, I was taking a container of compost to my compost area. I looked up, and over the neighbor's house at the 12:00 position, I saw a very large golden ball. We had been watching for comets for the last couple weeks. This was way,way too large, was not moving, and was totally soundless. It hovered for several minutes, then I thought it was coming in my direction, as it was getting larger. There was no sensation of it moving...just like suddenly it was closer. At one point, then, it changed shape. The only way to actually see it as a shape was to observe very black areas within the shape, and the lights surrounding it, giving it a certain depth. While looking like a large, bright ball, at first, the small lights at certain points (the small lights were red, blue, yellow, green, and very small) and the dark area within gave it a somewhat convex shape, but the most dramatic addition to this were what looked like 2 vertical "grids" composed of lines of black, with lines of bright lights between the black lines. These, along with the colored small lights, appeared when the object got closer, and appeared to have rotated to that more 3 dimensional shape, with the grids angled straight upwards. I am an artist, so I was very interested in the shape when all the individual lights, and the grids showed up...the flat bright ball went from flat to 3 dimensional, and it was very apparent. The object moved soundlessly over my head, and at some point in time appeared circular again, and soundlessly "glided" towards Richmond. I went into the house and told my fiancée, who registered mild surprise. About 10-20 minutes later, he received a call from a friend. "I just saw something I've Never seen before". He described the same thing, within the same time frame. We learned that the object he saw was just like what I saw. He lives about 15-20 miles away from us, is a military man with a long career, (retired) and he had never seen anything like it, as well. Although I have had one ot her sighting of a UFO long ago, I never reported it. It was somewhat similar to this sighting, but over, and within, water. I probably would not have reported this, but for the call from this friend that makes me absolutely certain that I saw it. I was frozen to the ground the second I saw this, and didn't move until it was gone.I have a very quick sketch of how the object looked in my sketchbook, but it seemed that each second that went by, my brain was trying to forget the whole thing, so my sketch is basic, but true to form. Thank you for the opportunity to write-I spent a rather nervous night, not sleeping much, and just being able to report it will help. I felt like I was only gone a few minutes, but it turned out to be 20 minutes.

815pm apx I walked my dogs and found a plant upset, so I bent to fix it. I have a lot of injuries so it wasnt possible. To this, I lamented by lying down on my steps. As I looked into the northwest sky, I saw a red and white object (thought it a plane) zip over to my rt and absorb another bright white object then it reversed in a downward motion and grabbed yet another smaller dimmer white object then it began to blink red and white and bleu lights. I screamed for others to come as I had no phone. Finally my neighbors 2 downstairs came out and argued over what it could be as it sat high in the sky not movinhg almost like mimicing a star. My son brought out this laptop and a phone. I dialed and reported to no avail the local police arrived and saw the trail it left when it moved but this time it only manuvered a bit, so he said it wa a twinkle and that it was just a star ofc Slausknofski spelling?? He was German and I never took my eyes from the object the ent! ire time it was over us then after a lot odd manuvers it slowly moved northwest toward areas known as Old Lycoming, Trout Run, Rock Run it finally crested a mountain where it painfully hoovered for 20 or more minutes before finally disappearing from our sight. A roomate from downstairs came in at the last hour and sat with me while we called the pentagon they asked if this phenomon worried us??? They proceeded dropped our calls repeatly transferred us to the fbi, a defense something or other they dropped the call too. I just kept calling and watching as the object seem to release the smaller white light. It udulated it zigzagged it did rt angles then made little circles.My nephew also saw these same three become one in the southside of the river. It reminded me of surveying a job in a helicopter. But I have never seen three copters attach and detache as it surveyed. It scared me it unnerved me. Also, in this almost 5 hour display a fireball, comet or whaterver shot out from the eastern sky like it was over our trees, the object was! 30,000 to 40,000 ft from us, or so it seemed. Soon after the fireball a meteor or shooting star came from same direction but higher same trajectory thought. The other thing to note is this object stayed in a dark cloud mass the entire time. You could see aircraft passing it in all directions Finnally it hoover slowly oh painfully slow over th Mountain and I gave up my vigil. I was in a lot of pain after all the standing and arguong but I never once lost sight of the object. I even contacted our moronic local police to inform them the object had moved from our sight. The thing did alot of stuff and 6 of us saw the really inexplicable movements the ofc saw it move saw the like I would call an expulsion of fuel every time it moved it trailled a stream of three or more lines like a rocket? Now, I am being critized, made fun of and will probaly be involved in a physical altercation with the idiots across from us who have three or more adults anda abunch of kids like 6 or more they were all out there as soon as a cop car showed up. They saw it, my 35yr old male neighbor is now saying it didn't move but my son saw it and he isnt the sort to say something because of in fact the exact opposite We did attept to photograph with cells but it was so far away. I contacted WBREchannel/NBC but they were too bus WNEP channel 16/ABC and got the same story. At 1227 am I gave up it was gone and no one seemed to care, Shake my head... --

On the night of August 10th, 2015, my girlfriend and I were sitting outside, when we saw a bright orange light through the trees. So we go and look at it and it starts to move south east. It turned red, then slowly disappeared. Then about 5 minutes later, my girlfriend saw it again through the trees. So, we called my sister out to see it and when she came out it was turning red again. Then it flashed some multi-colored lights, then it flashed green lights, like a laser pointer. Then, it stayed green and zig-zagged down at an alarming rate and was gone. Then, about 5 minutes later, we heard a loud humming and at that point we went inside and locked all the doors.

The sighting was of a circle of 4 white lights, which were moving in circles of increasing/decreasing diameter in the sky around a epicentre. They would occasionally fade and then come back bright again. We watched for about an hour before they completely faded, no idea how long they had been there before we spotted them. They were spotted a month before as well. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

I looked up at the sky and saw a shape that looked like a very bright constellation in the sky, low on the horizon. As I stared at the constellation to figure out which one it was, the dots started to drift into a different pattern. They looked almost like multi-colored, iridescent lanterns taking a slow journey across the sky. They went from South West to North East. They drifted into a loose triangle formation, then slowly went into a meandering line, until they disappeared. Instead of continuing traveling from point A to point B, they hovered over a certain point and slowly winked out. There were lots of little dots, and some very hard to see (small) rectangular shapes that you could only see when they flashed a very low level, dark blue. There was no sound at all.
