Phoenix, AZ
It was about 9:40pm we just arrived at Squaw peak and looking towards the city you see about 6 orange lights in 2 rows first row with 3 and second with 3 lights for about a few minutes then it shaped into a v for maybe 30 seconds and the lights began to fade and it just all disappeared at once with many other witnesses around who claimed they weren't the only ones who saw this to prove they weren't making it up as well either. We have amended the time above. PD

Brampton (Canada), ON · Canada
At approximately 22:35 on Saturday, September 27, 2014 my son – who is 15 (a high-school student) and myself – I am 50 (an electrician by trade)- saw an odd object in the sky of South Brampton. There is an airport nearby – Pearson International – and many planes fly in this vicinity day and night. I've seen many interesting things above my house in the past few years. I've seen satellites fly over head; meteors, airplanes and unidentifiable object on occasion. This one was most definitely a UFO. From where; I have no idea. I was standing in my driveway and looking at the sky – as I often do – and noticed a blurry object I thought might be a star. As I continued looking; I was certain it was moving in my direction. I watched for about 30 seconds and ran inside the house to tell my son and get my binoculars. My son joined me outside and I pointed the object out to him. It was now approaching us and nearing the overhead position. We both looked at it with the binoculars. Neither of us could clearly focus on it. Either with the binoculars or naked eyes; the object looked blurry. It was rather dim – no bright lights. The dim lights were impossible to focus clearly-on. They were a dull grey colour and changed to a very dark, dim red on occasion. It looked like there were perhaps 3 to 5 different lights; but they may have been part of a single or several objects clumped together. This object – or tight group of objects – appeared to change shape from circular to triangular with no definite shape at any given time We watched this for at least 2 minutes with naked eyes and binoculars. It was moving from the East South East direction to the West, North-West direction initially and turned pretty well due West near the end of when we could still see it. It faded and was no longer visible as it – at the end of the observation – was heading West towards the town of Georgetown.

Republic, MO
I was looking out the South windows of my home when I seen a fireball colored sphere right above the tree line... At first i thought it was a lantern, like you light and send off at 4th of July, but after I got to watching it I knew it wasn't... It changed shape (sphere to cylinder) and color variation (red, orange, yellow) as it dipped above and below the tree line... It when on approx. for an hour appearing and disappearing. Very odd shape and no sound at all… Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Wailuku, HI
I was sitting in the back yard having coffee. Looking east over the ocean,I saw a perfect semi-circle on the horizon. Along the circumference was a band of white that looked like clouds. The inside of the semi-circle was clear, because I could see stars. I could not see stars through the white band. Estimated it was about 15 miles out. The base diameter approx.2 miles, radius 1 mile,thickness of white band 1/10th of radius. The top was about 20 degrees above the horizon. As time went on the semi circle expanded proportionally until it dissipated at about 75-80 degrees above the horizon. I did not see any type of craft or hear any noise. It was very likely associated with the sighting on the road to Haleakala crater at about the same time.

Urbana, MD
While laying in a dark field in Urbana, MD, my girlfriend and I witnessed an object that appeared east of the star Deneb. It was white like a star at first and I happened to notice it moving. I began watching it closely and did so for about 45 minutes. In that time, we witnessed it flash brightly, then flash to red. It also looked to have wings of some sort, although we saw it only for a moment and had to wonder how we were able to see it since it appeared to be very distant. It seemed to move very quickly in one direction, then stop. Then it moved in odd patterns and circles. I’ve never seen anything like this in 30 years of star gazing. Very odd.

Riverside/Fairborn, OH
Bright silver object, looking as though it had wings on either side, however, when it hovered for about 1 minute and when doing so, it changed shapes with a reddish triangle coming from the bottom of the object. It twirled while hovering and when I circled the block to get a picture of it, the object took off, heading north/northwest and then disappeared.

Pearl River, LA
At 4 am, I looked out my bedroom window and seen something strange. I watched for 2 hours trying to figure out what I was seeing. It was bright blue and sometimes flashed to yellow. The object was moving erratically and zig zagging around. I recorded several videos and showed a few people and no one has any idea what it could be. Definitely not anything man made. It also seemed to change from a circular shape to cigar shape and a few times it disappeared completely and reappeared in another part of the sky. It was a very clear night and this thing stood out very brightly. Very interesting!!

Gilbert, AZ
We were walking our dog and saw 4 lights in sky, 3 were like flares, one was a bluish-redish light. All four changed numerous times, from the blue/red light to a flare-like light that fell downward. It lasted about 5 minutes until we couldn't see it anymore because of the trees. We thought it was odd, that if they were flares, why did they change back to the blue/red light many times?

The 3rd object stayed NW of my location and didn't move untill the 2nd object that was shooting across looked like it changed direction to what I can only explain in the 3d sence that it started to move out, not up or down but out as if it was heading off our planet I can't explain more then that but I so have 2 pictures that really don't do any justice to my experience I hope someone else saw this incredible phenomenon

Las Vegas, NV
Were at a park located at lone mountain and 215. My family and I was playing sports in the park as the sun was setting. Between 7:15pm and 7:45pm we witnessed 8 objects on the actual mountain going across the ridges at high speed. They were getting brighter and dimmer at certain points sometimes disappearing for a few seconds. There were 4 groups of 2 that kind of circled each other. At some points they seemed to swirl if that makes sense. They worked their way down the ridge from left to right disappearing completely out of view around 7:45pm. About 30 to 45 minutes later there was yet another lone light starting at the highest peak and working its way down like the others. Again 15 minutes later there was one final light to the left towards the base of the mountain. We went to see if anything was there but couldn't find anything on arrival.

One possible two white lights bounced around sky very fast. Camera was held steady and light kept bouncing. At two different times object was close enough to see a strange circular light and at another point you can see it appears to have two sides and a middle part.

Kingston, OH
Traveling south from Kingston to Chillicothe on OH ST RT 159. Six helicopter sized (perspective) lights appeared staying stationary. Only two showed at first flashing twice on an off by themselves alternating. Then the other four lit from the closest to the furthest. An swiftly changes from there upward U shape to a triangle, before disappearing all together. The pulses of lights or lights were comprised of multiple individual lights. Slight variants of white yellow and orange appeared. These were the only lights visible in that area the light pollution of Chillicothe floods out the stars to a certain height.

My girlfriend saw what started as an unusual light in the night sky. It was observed for aprox 30 min then noticed an aircraft overhead. Object then became bright, then dimmed to reveal a shape of an inverted wye. Then object became illuminated again moving to the left on the horizontal seemingly paralleling the aircraft and mimicking the strobe pattern of the aircraft. She then lost sight of the aircraft (plane) and the object was seen doing circular motions and then vanished to the right in the night sky. There is mention of hearing the actual aircraft (plane) overhead but nothing for the "object" and we had another sighting on sat 09/13/14 at aprox 2130 hrs as a blinking light white,red,green all at the same time from an object at a great distance. Object seemed to move within the same area for an extended amount of time before it not seen again. I almost called the PD to ask if there was helicopter traffic over Middletown but didn't want to come off as a freak. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

North polar orbit. Just past zenith grew in brightness to about 10 times station brightness, moving as a typical satellite, until much more bright than any satellite could possibly get from reflected sunlight, unless extremely large, i.e. 1/2 mile in size @ 300 miles agl. http://heavens-above.com/IridiumFlares.aspx?lat=47.5223&lng=-120.4698&loc=Cashmere&alt=241&tz=PST Sighting of Iridium #70 at 20:45 hrs..

Katy, TX
I was doing medical research on the computer, when suddenly I heard loud gunshot-type sounds behind the home I rent a room in. In short, order two more bursts of these sounds alarmed me. I went to the window. The house is adjacent to a water detention pond that is fenced off, and the ground slants towards the pond. This area is behind the fence of the backyard of the home I live in. I can't see the pond from my room; just the slanting land to the right of it and part of the fence. Actually, my room is the ONLY vantage point of this area in the house. Alarmed, I pulled the curtains back to see if a shoot-out or home invasion might be taking place in a neighboring area. It was very dark. In the extreme right corner of this detention pond area, on the ground, I saw a very bright light. I judged it had to be at least 20 feet across because on foot it is close to 1/8 of a mile from my window. I say this because although it was very dark (my landlord refuses to put lights in the backyard, and the house is next to this area and some woods also) I could see this object with startling clarity. It was not smalll even from the distance of my viewing point. After it emitted the last burst of gunfire, I unfroze and called 911. I described the situation to the dispatch officer. She said, "We are getting other calls about it," and basically disconnected me after asking for my name. I watched from the window for over two hours: To my knowledge, no police approached the object on foot, nor was a helicopter dispatched. On the left my vision was completely blocked by huge oak trees. I could vaguely see house lights from another sector of the neigborhood that is adjacent to this detention pond. At one point, trying to peer through the leaves of these trees from my vantage point in my room on the second floor, I thought I saw red and blue lights (police cars) near those other homes. It was very brief. They probably took a look and ran. The object pulsated from dim to brightly starlike over and over again. It appeared disabled or unable to achieve a getaway. I don't know why I had this feeling that it was disabled. I was hoping to watch it make its getaway but missed that event. These things can disappear, btw, without a grand getaway. The object made itself known with the extremely loud gunfire sounds, so it obviously wanted to be discovered but not approached. I told the police dispatcher about the gunfire so likely if the police approached, they of course would not attempt a close encounter but rather a distant viewing angle. I have seen many UFOs in the USA and in foreign territories. I was shocked and dismayed about this thing being ON THE GROUND and making warlike noises. I looked at the area this morning and saw no evidence of scorching or gunfire destruction. Perhaps the sounds were meant to achieve another goal...a 'look at me but don't dare approach' message. I watched as long as I could but eventually fell asleep. A few months back I saw two of these starlike things in another neighborhood, practically on top of a house. I had an eyewitness with me. Interestingly, it was also adjacent to a detention pond in that neighborhood. My contact info on this form will be scant but a 911 call was placed by me and I gave them my full name. Again, I was told others were alsocalling in while I was on the phone with the dispatch officer.

Chester, CHESHIRE · United Kingdom
I was having a cigarette in the garden when I noticed a glowing ball rumbling in the sky and began to take photos. Shortly after a brighter glowing ball appeared to the right of the screen with a human like figure appearing from the new glowing ball and advancing to the original darker glowing mass. The darker mass then expanded and the two looked to be communicating with each other above the glowing human shaped feature their was a glowing white light which can be seen and I witnessed shadows in this which seem to be waving/jumping up and down. Only 15 at the time I was scared. It then began to move closer to me coming to be overhead of the house where I ran I with my dog and locked the door. Pictures are grainy due to it being taken back in 2014 on a camera phone. Hoping I can possibly enhance with help more images available

Reseda, CA
It was a semi-circular object w/ blue lights gliding thru sky. I had look 3 or 4 times to understand what I was seeing. (It also had red lights in background). I looked around (lots of other people were looking up), and when I looked back up, It changed shape, from semi-circular to square, going back and forth north, southeast, and West. Then, I looked at the car next to me, and the female driver was also gawking at the sky. I asked her if she knew what it was, she didnt. When I looked back, was gone. We all went separate ways...I went home.
