Panama City Beach, FL
On the beach a few minutes after 10 pm, craft became visible but obscured by cloud cover directly overhead. After approximately one minute, craft became fully visible for a full minute, moving very slowly and silently, before vanishing in the clouds. Way too large to be a drone. My background is in higher education, Ph.D.. Otherworldly - unlike anything I have seen in my fifty years of life.

Looking SSW loading a plane. A small Lear Jet was passing over heading S towards Meacham Airport about 5k feet. Just above about 7 to 10k feet, a triangle shaped craft emerged from a cloud then disappeared. Sun glinting off 3 tips. Not red, green or white lights. Sun shine glimmering.

First let me start with nctr only has one way in and one way out. I have been going to this place since I was 16 years old I have never seen anything of the sorts here. My fiancé and I drive this road At least 1 time everyday on good days we will drive it 2 maybe 3 times of the day. It’s my favorite place. Tonight we had an amazing lightning storm which we don’t normally get. I decided to go later in the night since my kid was staying with my cousin. It was 11 when we turned down nctr and went over the train tracks. I immediately noticed a star in the sky and announced to my fiancé that was weird being as the sky was so cloudy from the storm. He started to pay attention to it more at this point, he says did that just move I told him I didn’t know I couldn’t see it from the windshield he said holly shit it did move it changed from a one star looking light then it spreaded apart into 3 star looking lights with 3 red lights in the tips of the triangle on the bottom of the ship my fiancé said “look out the window I got the steering wheel” I did a quick head tilt to the left out of my window and I saw 2 white lights with a red light flashing between the white one I stated “that’s just a tower baby” immediately I realized there was no tower in the field there is actually a pond down in a valley right in that area and it is now open almost all of the trees have been cut to where you can see down to the pond. Once again 5 seconds go by and my fiancée is grabbing the wheel again telling me to look out of my window that I wouldn’t believe was I was fixing to see that he thought if I didn’t look right then I was going to miss it. I rolled my window back down enough where I could tilt my head to the side again but this time I couldn’t see it I stuck my head out of my window and looked straight up above my car. It was SO HUGE!!!!!!!! I can’t even explain the texture of the ship. It looked shiny but gooey like if you were to touch it slime would be stuck to your hand it was most definitely a black vessel. it was as low as the trees I’d say only 100ft above my car I felt in immediate danger and took off keep in mind the speed limit is 45 on this road and yes if my daughter isn’t in the car I ride 5 over so I was going 50mph I speed to the river and just sat there for a few seconds trying to get the courage up to drive back down the road to get out of nctr to come back home for the night. It was excatly 11:22 when I looked out of my window and the ship was above my car did I mention there was NO SOUND!!!! It was just hovering silently no wind from it no sound waves after I took off nothing!!!! There was a car behind me at the time but I am not sure if they saw it they kept going I assume they live down there somewhere they were going just as fast as I was I hit 70mph trying to get somewhere safe feeling to turn around. I was so excited at first then my body just told me to run!! We finally talked ourselfs back up to leave I called my mom as soon as I got service and made her stay on the phone with us becusse we were freaking out looking the whole sky trying to see where it went! We NEVER FOUND IT!!!!! It was gone by the time we made it back down the road! That confirmed it WAS NOT A TOWER. I realized afterwards I never heard one cricket the whole time I was down the road which is extremely not normal.

I was parked near the church at lookout road and 79th getting sunset photos. I looked east of my location. I saw a black shape I initially thought was a bird. I pointed my 500mm lens at it and got multiple photos. It looked like it has a cone shaped balloon at the top of the object. The cone was grey and had a black tip facing upward It had 4 round gray shapes hanging below the cone shape. I think something was tethered at the bottom of the round shapes by a single strap. It looked like it was floating north of my position [NUFORC annotation: Balloon - Possible]

Walpole, NH
Two gray fighter jets were chasing a dark gray or black triangular shaped craft headed west. I’m unsure the elevation they were at but looked to be about 1.00” long. I would guess they were 5000-8000’. They were doing slalom like maneuvers which is what caught my attention. They were moving so fast it caught me so off guard I didn’t even notice the black triangular aircraft at first. The triangular craft was seemingly just moving, if that makes sense. As in, there wasn’t the expected movement like the jets. Almost as if I was blinking very quickly as it would move, but I wasn’t blinking. It definitely seemed like the craft was easily outmaneuvering the two jets. Unfortunately I couldn’t react fast enough to get pics or video.

On 16 May 2023 b/w 7:58 pm and 8:00 pm (all times are in IST standard time) My mother, my father and me, all 3 of us have seen strange triangle shape object, black colour in the sky from our house garden. It had green colour lights at 3 corners and 1 in the centroid position. my mother saw that thing first approximately at 7:58 PM on 16 May 2023 while washing the garden area she poured the water bucket on the gate to the garden entrance and she saw these light triangle shape 3 lights at its corner and 1 light in the centre and all in green colour in the North direction of small size as described in next para, she rushed to me inside the house as she has seen passing flying disks in past when she was about 10 years old while she was in Gaya city Bihar approx. 35-40 years ago sleeping in the open night sky regularly and she thought I was the best person to consult for this and when I came to the entrance I also saw the same thing but I noticed it was black in colour and all the lights were having a glaring effect and that thing was hovering. I rushed back into the room and grab my Samsung M20 smartphone and answer my father's question which he was asking me that "What's Going on? " I answered with excitement but briefly to save time "PAPA there is a UFO !!" and I rushed out into the garden area with my father also following me with amazement and we saw that UFO as described before and everyone noticed the same detail as described above and Everyone was watching this thing for about 1 min since the first visual contact. We don't have the exact estimation of its size may it was too big or small in dimensions depending on how far or close it was but we can estimate this only as everyone has a different opinion my father said that it was a massive size and was far away and hovering on Godowalia chauraha approximately 2.00 Km away from our location, But my estimate is that it was small in size and it was very close about 30 m away from us at a height of 10 m at max altitude And my mother agreed with me. I thought at that moment maybe it was observing us that’s why it was hovering that long it was a BIG size Drone but the arrangement of lights as explained doesn’t match with the drone light spec available in the publicly open market drone I searched for that but didn’t find the exact match on the internet and my video editing expert friend said based on the photo and description that it was a 40% UFO and 60 % Unknown Drone but I later showed him the ref images than he reversed this percentage but also said the evidence is not clear and prove UFO theory. Let us come back to the incident, to disprove the drone theory as I don’t have evidence but only my family's naked-eye experiences, Now when we all were seeing that thing I was busy opening my phone camera app and it was not opening my phone started to Hang in a weird manner and when I opened my camera app since it was having a flashlight on by default so flashlight tuned on when switched to Video mode and I remember I was not able to Click on start button rather my phone switched to selfie mode and this switch was happening whenever I touched the start button meanwhile I tried to look on the phone screen but only 3 dim light spots where only visible during this struggle with my phone. Maybe due to the continues flashing of my flashlight in this chaos while constantly pointing my camera and fingers towards that thing, we saw that started to move towards the West and then towards the East to hide in the building as we were at the ground level We also shifted our position in order to see that thing continuously and the way it was moving was not naturally what a drone is able to do while changing its position as that thing was not tilling towards the direction where it was going, not like a drone which does this by adjusting the propeller thrust and tilting a little bit which could be observed in the even the most advanced drone in the market (basic Physics was defied by the object). It was in the same orientation since we were tracking it. When it started to move it actually changed its light colour to green and red colour alternatively on all its corners and edges (which indicates the Drone Theory possibility) My phone was not in my control as that thing was acting as a kind of jammer to stop me to get any visuals of him/her captured. But the Drone theory is disproved again when the thing after a small game of hide and seek decided to finally escape so when hiding in the building didn't work it started to move in the west and stopped there and then started to look like a dot of light while it is accelerated towards the North of East and hover there like a bright star and then started to move slowly towards East towards Ganga river which is just 178 m away from the location and while it was just going to vanish into the building and getting off visual sight. Just before it goes Off sight I got my phone controls back and I was able to switch to capture mode and taped the button on the screen multiple times until it vanished I was very disappointed as I didn’t have any concrete evidence(video), but suddenly I saw this photo in my gallery which left me amazed, it was a black and White image But my camera was a coloured high-quality camera but it took a black and white photo without any use of a filter. And that photo was taken exactly at 8:00 PM on 16 May 2023 and that light dot where clearly visible 2 white dots in the photo and a red trail of light which is visible when you zoom in closely on the 2 dots. Another thing to be mentioned when this thing was happening I also saw 2 passenger jets going on their way one in the North and the other in the West and both of them were at high altitude airways which are just above our house. After this all these incidents, I started to share this incident with my Friends and family on WhatsApp, I was recording a voice note to my elder sister and then I saw a similar thing again but this time it was looking like a drone with a strobe light and straight-line movement just after 8 mins of this incident going from East towards West maybe this was a POLICE DRONE which had came to investigate that thing which might also be seen by its operator as us. I also made the video of that possible Police drone as a reference for the future on 16 May 2023 at 8:08 PM. 8 min after the UFO incident. Since I am a Pro Gamer of Flight Simulator games and often play FSX 2010 edition, I Know a lot about flying objects in the sky and easily spot the difference b/w planes, helicopters and Dones of any kind and often do that when I see the flying things in the sky. We were amazed but felt quite lucky we initially thought during the encounter that it was a POLICE DORNE but when I recalled all the incident carefully and typed out all the details while writing this report, today 19 MAY 2023 at 11:03 AM, NOW I am 100% Sure that it was not a Drone, star, falling star or plane, etc but non-other than a UFO. Maybe it does get annoyed by our courageous moves (flashing lights and trying to record and track it ). It thought that it was caught by courageous and fearless people and It decided to escape. I have attached all the measurements of possible distances as discussed and coordinates of the exact location of the incident and the Police drone Video and the UFO. Photo and a reference photo from the internet edited to describe the object. Sorry to mention lastly I believe no buddy apart from us has seen this UFO as we were lucky to be in the right place and at the right time and I and I have not talked to the local people who were there at this location as they will find me crazy so I request investigator not to reveal my name among the local people of the area.

Oro Valley AZ, AZ
We were sitting in the football stadium grandstands at Canyon Del Oro High School in Oro Valley AZ (a suburb of Tucson) for a high school graduation ceremony on May 16, 2023 at 1900.. I estimate approx 1,000 people in the stands and 350 graduation students on the field. At 1900 the ceremonies began. It was at this point that my partner pointed out a strange dark object was hovering to the east approx 5-10 miles from our location. It was north of the Santa Catalina mountains and northeast of Pusch Ridge. I advised my partner that is was most likely an airplane from the nearby Davis Monthan AFB or Tucson Intl Airport. However, as we watched it, no movement was noticed. Other people in the stands also saw the object and started to question what it was. My partner attempted to capture the object on his mobile phone but was unable to get a clear picture, most likely due to distance. At 1925 the object lit up with 3 bright white lights in a strobing fashion. I could see a faint outline of the object which appeared to be triangle in shape. The object continued to hover for approx 5 more mins with its flashing lights and not moving. At approx 1930 the object moved at extreme speed southwest over the Tucson valley. I estimated it traveled over 25 miles in a matter of seconds. It proceed to stop abruptly and again hover. At approx 1935 the object went into what appeared to be a spiral roll down and I could clearly see it was triangle in shape. We lost sight of it as it disappeared behind buildings.

Le mardi 16 mai 2023, le témoin se balade au belvédère de Notre-Dame de la Paix (Cd 36 Nd de la Paix / La Plaine des Cafres) sur l'île de La Réunion. Il a, par la suite, remarqué la présence d'un Phénomène Aérospatial Non identifié (PAN) sur une des photos prises avec son smartphone, lors de cette promenade. L'enquête démontre que le témoin a vraisemblablement pris en photo un animal, de type insecte, oiseau ou papillon. Il est fortement probable qu'il s'agisse d'un papillon endémique de La Réunion nommé « Neptis Dumetorum », évoluant rapidement à proximité de l'objectif. Mesurant environ 2 cm de long, ce papillon présente des similitudes marquées en termes de forme et de couleur avec le phénomène aérospatial non identifié (PAN) mentionné (voir le compte rendu d'enquête). Ce cas est classé « A », il s’agit très probablement d’un papillon. [GEIPAN classification A — Insecte]

The object had no sound, no blinking lights,moved very slow, no trail. It was brighter than the surrounding stars. When it was above us, it disappeared. Duration was approximate 3 minutes. The body of the triangle looked sky dark. About 5 minutes later, we noticed 3 similar sized lights to the east, only in a straight line. Not connected to a constellation, nor was it Venus, which was more to the east and brighter. I felt uneasy, we went inside.

A very bright triangle very high in the sky above the lake. I was out in the backyard gardening with my wife and I looked up and I saw this very bright triangle very high in the sky higher than I ever see a plane and I see lots of planes from my location. I look left to tell my wife that plane must be very high, and when we look back, it was gone. Very disappointing I didn’t immediately take out my phone. My wife and I have seen UFO in the past we saw a TikTac vehicle above the Saint Paul airport 10 years ago. So when I told her that she wasn’t surprised. I thought I should tell the story.

Owasso, OK
We were awaiting a big thunderstorm to roll in and sky watching from our balcony. Just a a few hundred feet or less above us, Came diagonally overhead our apartment headed almost directly East & quickly just above the clouds (clouds gave a foggy look to craft). The tip of the triangle was the front of the craft and on each tip of the triangle was a ring-like light, spinning and changing directions at odd and random intervals. Almost like it was completely a full revolution on each ring tight tip. Each ring light spun at different direction, at different times, and changed directions at different times. It had a white/blush hue through the clouds. The triangle itself also spun and rotated at weird intervals. Almost like aerial pit maneuvers? Like you would see fired jets do. It was maybe the size of large four door suv but wider, but also a few hundred feet in the air, so hard to tell for sure, but smaller in size relative to a hot air balloon, but way larger than a drone or kite. It was so fast that I couldn’t grab my phone and hit the camera icon quick enough. I’ve never seen ANYTHING like it. Oddly enough, Owasso has had extreme weather randomly disapate before reaching us, or create “donuts” around us with us in the center. I wonder if this could be related?

Triangular light formation hovered over my sons friends house for about 10 minutes before heading north where another individual spotted the same formation. The lights seemed to move up and down into and out of the cloud cover. After hovering for a bit it moved off slowly in a northward direction.

Three lights triangular positions. One flashing light, all lights were white. Soft engine noise. Slow moving. Tilted some as it turned more northerly. Low flying slow moving. Could be a drone but it was quite large maybe 20 feet across. Craft not visible in the dark but lights were fixed in triangular shape as it passed almost silently over Main street as I was looking toward the bay it was in front of me then it was to my left as it disappeared over the trees [NUFORC annotation: Drone - Possible]

I was looking out my bedroom window before closing it. Looked to my left because of a bright lights there was no moon out and I saw a triangle craft with lights from end to end on it and a long cylinder craft to the left of it ( only 1 light on it ) they were northwest of my home. There was no sound from them the night was totally silent. I tried to take a picture ( night vision on my phone) they showed in my view finder but my phone would not work. I turned around took a picture of my bed it worked try to take one again and nothing. I watched them for about 45 minutes and they did not move before going on to bed. We have a neighborhood talk site I checked it for several days and no one has mentioned seeing anything that night

It was 1995 or 96. I was heading home from the shops, on foot. I looked towards Woolworths when I heard a young boy scream and point up. It was clear as day, a large black triangle, hovering just above Woolworths in Kelmscott. I was in complete awe, and lost for words. I was watching it for what seemed like a minute or so, and suddenly it vanished so fast, it was unbelievable. Gone in less than a split second. The young boy was still freaking out, so I helped him go to the video store to call his mum. He just kept screaming "I want my mum, I want my mum". The lady in the shop called his mother for him, and she collected him. I am autistic, and I didn't know that I was meant to report this sighting. I am now 52 years of age, and as there are more and more sightings, I thought it best to report now. Thank you. I am happy for anyone to come and ask me questions.

Was Taking Photos with an old Kodak camera, The exposure wasn't right, and the glare and blur is noticeable. Large Triangle ship moves across the sky at around a relative speed of 50-60 MPH. Large gaps were visible on the ship, and it was such a spectacle to observe.

I was watching the airplanes and decided to video record them as there were very long, expanding contrails or chemtrails behind them. I can't recall if I reviewed the video before I got home or after, but I think it was before. I had thought I had seen a small flash or two of something near a contrail so I enlarged it and slowed down the video. I have a Samsung S22 Ultra. That's when I saw a white triangular craft of some kind in the image. I have NO idea what it is, but I DO know its not a plane or star or cloud, etc.

Loveland, CO
First time posting here. I’ve been seeing these lights in the sky at least three times in the past year but this was so strange I had to report. It was dark and I was driving from Loveland to Fort Collins when my sister and I saw a bright star. Together, we think we’ve seen this before, coming home from DIA. This time, the star was so bright, and changing in intensity that we stopped. We had to squint to catch the outline of the strange light but when we did, it was pyramid shape with what looked like a rope of light hanging from one corner. We stared for maybe an hour when out of nowhere 6 smaller, less bright, blinking red and green grafts appeared over the mountains. Two of them circled each other and the lights eventually went separate directions. I think three of them are still over the mountains. I had to take my sister (21 yrs old) because she was freaked out and was getting anxiety. When I went back to the same exact spot, pulled over on the side of the road, the bright triangle was no longer there and the blinking red and green lights were gone except for three. They’re spread out but still high above the mountains, relatively close. I left because they weren’t moving but I finally felt the need to report something on here. That was really strange. Also, what looked like a line of smoke, appeared briefly when the blinking lights showed up and then it move in a straight direction at slow speed before I lost track of it when I was counting the blinking lights.

I clearly saw a black hollow triangle shaped jet or space craft with 3 red lights at each point moving very slowly maybe doing a survey.. the object had no middle to it or it was invisible through the middle. I could clearly see the sky and clouds straight through it, but right above was a triangle with 3 lights at each point slowly moving through the sky it disappeared into the clouds I suppose it went higher but I waited 20 minutes waiting for it and couldn't see it anymore for sure.

I’m an amateur photographer, and was noting how cool the hole in the sky looked. I started snapping pictures, when I saw 3 faint lights in the clouds, seeming to keep form for several minutes. I will include the original photo, and then the one I use filters to enhance to bring out the light. It was then, with the additional contrast, that I noticed the triangular form, as well. Freaky.

The object flew past at a slow pace, and it was low to the ground. I could make out ridges on the object, but it obtained multiple circular lights around it. It was flashing but there was no location as to where the light was coming from. None of the circular lights were flashing. The craft was a dark black triangular shape. There was no sound coming from the object. This was not my first encounter.

On 26th of April evening at around 10:30 just after I finished meditation on the deck of the workplace at the start of night shift I observed a triangular craft hovering directly over my head and slowly gliding away right after. It had three white light under in each corner. It produced no sound was a rainy night and craft was directly under the clouds so I could clearly see that it was a physical object that looked very extraordinary. I worked as a social worker with kids that are in vulnerable sector so I was absolutely not under influence of anything. Same night I woke up at 3am and observed a childlike figure standing in the room where I was sleeping and I remember attempting communicate with it that went through some sort of mind to mind image projection type of way. I don’t remember much after and what I remember I can’t even convince myself that it’s real due to how extraordinary it was and I’m not sure whether it’s connected or not to my sighting but part of me feels like it may be. My Apple Watch recorded me being awake for two hours and I have no recollection of it. If you need more information best way to reach me out is through email.

It was very dark so I did not see it very well, but I saw a jet black flat pyramid that was hovering but slightly moving left to right as it was staying almost still. I freaked out and ducked under my windowsill, and when I peeked back up it started to move away. It almost looked like it was changing shape but it could have been the change of perspective as it moved away. It was about 15 meters off the ground. It seemed to somehow glow as I should not have been able to see it because of how dark it was, so it was widely luminescent. The next day I woke up on the floor of my living room, and it was a Sunday, so I skipped a day. I didn’t question it as I was very scared and tried to act normal so I did not tell anyone. I don’t know if it abducted me or something but I missed a whole day.
