White Sulphur Springs, MT
Thought it was just a bright star or plane, but it was flashing red and green lights, and it did not move. Got binoculars and could see 5 "windows," or lights, in row along the shape horizontally, middle one brightest white light. Watched for twenty minutes, tried photo, but camera wasn't catching the light at that distance in the dark. It did not seem to move but dimmed like it had gained distance. Clear starry night. Checked star placement with iPad and none matched for the location. Possible sighting of Sirius? Sirius would be in the southern sky at the time, and on the date, indicated by the witness. PD

Palm Springs, AZ
My wife and I were visiting J. W. Marriott resort in Palm Springs California. After we had lunch, we strolled around the outside area just east of the lake they had. My wife posed for a few pictures and I shot five pictures of the resort with the mountains in the distance. After I finished taking pictures, I looked at the ones just taken. About 1:11pm, according to the built in timer on the photos. Much to my surprise, one of the pictures had an image I immediately showed my wife. I asked her, what do you think this is at the top upper portion in the sky? Both my wife and I cannot explain it. There was no reflection we could ascertain that would have made this appear in the picture. The short time only seemingly caught on the picture. If this was real, I cannot explain it. I can forward you the picture if you respond to me.

I was coming out on the balcony for a cigarette (I do not smoke illicit drugs nor I don't drink alcohol; was wearing eye glasses at the time of the event). When I was siting on the chair and looking outside (photo attached) I saw strange looking triangle/grey object. It didn't have any lights whatsoever and it was slowly moving from right to the left (as on the photo) and (north to south on map). I knew right away that it is something strange and can not be airplane. We don't have airplane flying this way, I have never seen one. And all airplanes, helicopters have flashing light this was as dead piece of ring like round concrete color object in the air. I wear glasses and I had them on during sighting, after seeing that it is something strange I quickly opened the balcony door and grabbed my Celestron 15x70 Binoculas (which I have always ready staying beside the balcony door (I watch birds, eagles, airplanes, etc). When I got binoculars and looked back it was right on the top of the building and moving slowly south. It is hard to identify it quickly in binoculars. That's why I looked at the building first, then up, and I got image sharp exactly at the object. My knees shaking a little, and I screamed to my wife to come and see. I probably looked at it 6 seconds, and I just could not believe what I see. I will describe it here: As you can imagine first it looked just like something large grey ((?)) in the sky, but after binoculars magnification it was clear as day. I saw a grey colored like concrete round object. it was reminding me as a vehicle tire as if you would put it flat on the ground but without center (wedding ring like). It was grey without any lights or windows. It looked in some places like it was dirty dark/black dust. It looked like an old spaceship after entering atmosphere burned in some places. It definitely looked not as shiny as other people describe. It was grey ,made object with black dust parts all over it. It felt like this ship went through places for sure. What was most interesting that it didn't just fly straight left, it was gliding like a rock if you throw it on the top of the lake. It was gliding on the air and it looked so light not like airplane fly heavy in the sky this object was gliding and I felt that it was crashing. I turned around to call my wife and screamed for her to come over, when I turned back it was gone. In measurements I would say it looked in length of Boeing 777 and round like a ring with a hole in the center. Why I was lucky that it was couple days after full moon and it was still bright and big. The moon was exactly behind me that moment, so all moon light was going towards this UFO. I believe only because of this I saw it. It is easy to see birds flying at night when the get light from the city or the moon on them. I draw how it looked right away and I took a photo of the view (edited in Photoshop of exact dimensions how it appeared to me on that night). I hope it helps and maybe someone would recognize seeing the same. We spoke via telephone, and he seemed to us to be a quite serious, and sober-minded individual. We suspect that he is an excellent, and highly reliable, witness. PD

Sodaville, OR
We had friends over for dinner tonight. When one of our friends went to take their son home next door he saw an orange glowing light moving in the sky and called us all out to look at it. On New Year’s night we saw the exact same orange glowing lights so we were excited to see one back. I started filming the light with my phone video camera and my friend was taking still pictures at the same time with her phone camera. The light was moving back and forth and up and down and I captured it on video, then it turned into 2 lights also captured on video. My friend who took the still shots zoomed her pictures and sure enough you can see that each light is a perfect hat or saucer shape with a dome on top and a light underneath! We posted the pics on Facebook and are very excited to know what they are after seeing them on New Year’s and being baffled by what they could have been. We would love to have someone check out the photos and enhance them for further detail.

My daughter and I were driving home and saw this blue light not traveling in a typical "flight path," either in direction or speed. Not sure if it was a plane but I don't know of any looking like this did or following the path it was.

Probable conventional[D820] De Roques, Midi-Pyrénées · France
Le 21 février 2016 vers midi, un automobiliste roule sur la rocade de Toulouse à 2 voies puis à 3 voies, dans un trafic automobile soutenu. Il observe en direction de Toulouse, juste au-dessus des toits d'un grand magasin, un objet en forme de soucoupe, semblant de couleur marron. Il pense à un ballon publicitaire, mais ne distingue aucune marque. L'objet, qui paraît rester très longtemps immobile, finit par disparaître à grande vitesse. Le phénomène est observé à partir de 11h55. Un seul témoignage est recueilli. Les conditions de vent d'Est font penser à un avion qui a décollé de Blagnac sur la piste 014 droite (face au vent), en faisant une boucle par le Sud. Lors de l'analyse sur une période comparable, nous relevons la trace du vol AF6135 (TLS-ORY) avec des conditions de vent identiques. Le fichier joint nommé "trace AF6135 du 05.07.2017.pdf" montre la trace de ce vol compatible avec la position de l'avion aux 3 moments clés de l'observation du témoin : A - objet immobile, correspondant à la vue de face de l'avion qui se dirige vers le témoin. Dans ces conditions (altitude 1.400 m, distance 5.500 m) l'avion se présente avec une élévation de 14°. B - objet croisant l'A64 (alt 1.500 m, dist 2.300 m) apparaît à 30° d'élévation. C - objet prenant un cap au Nord-Ouest (alt 2.200 m, dist 8.000 m) montre une élévation en baisse à 15°. Lors de la boucle vers le Sud, l'avion avançant face au témoin apparaît immobile dans le ciel, puis reprend de la vitesse apparente quand il prend une trajectoire perpendiculaire au témoin. Ceci est confirmé par la datation des positions. Le délai entre les positions A et B est inférieur à une minute. Celui entre B et C est approximativement d'une minute et demi. L'observation correspond probablement à un avion, face au témoin, faisant une boucle, dans des conditions comparables au relevé du vol AF6135, donnant l'illusion d'une station immobile, puis prenant rapidement de la vitesse avant de disparaître en s'éloignant. La principale étrangeté pour le témoin est de ne pas distinguer des ailes si avion. La forme de soucoupe peut s'apparenter à un avion vu de face, genre Beluga, les bords fins correspondant aux ailes. Puis de profil les ailes ne sont pas toujours visibles, l'observation n'ayant pas été continue cela peut expliquer leur non visibilité. En plein jour et dans le flot des véhicules avec d'autres potentiels témoins, il est le seul à s’être manifesté. Ce qui fragilise l'étrangeté de son témoignage. En revanche, la consistance du témoignage est bonne et le témoin ayant fourni une photo de l'environnement (mais pas en temps réel) et ayant fait une déposition en Gendarmerie. La description du phénomène s’apparente parfaitement à la trajectoire d'un avion après le décollage de Blagnac vers le Sud-Est (condition de vent), puis faisant une boucle vers le Sud pour prendre son cap au Nord. Trajectoire standard par vent d'Est pour éviter de survoler l'agglomération. Le GEIPAN classe ce phénomène en B comme probablement identifié comme une méprise avec un avion au décollage. [GEIPAN classification B — Avion de ligne]

This is incredible being it was taken with two different games cams. This rules out human error.and it takes movement to set them off. In the first two zoom in and see the figure in the light on the one with craft you can zoom in and see a figure between two of the lights.

This sighting also occurred on 2/7/16 at around the same time, exact time not documented. I looked up from my computer to look at the window that is above the kitchen sink facing towards the street and I saw a bunch of yellow lights. I was curious at first, then I saw the outline of a saucer. The object was moving slowly right, soon it would be out of my vision due to the window ending. I scrambled to my feet to try to get a picture of it via my iPad, but it had moved on, trees blocking the shot. I sat back down to tell those I know about it before it happened once more, about half an hour later. I managed to get a picture in which it looked like a tiny blip, the neighbors' porch light taking the attention of the picture however, as the neighbors' lamp itself looked like a ball of light. I told my mother about what I saw and she got up and opened the front door to look, and she said that she saw an outline of something over Lake Michigan. I went back to what I was doing, until it happened again today, 2/11/16. As of this moment, it has only happened once, and it was around the general time of the first sighting. I was unable to get a good picture again, but I'm waiting for it to come by again like it did on the 7th. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

White to yellow disc shaped object in the north east sky that appeared to remain stationary. It seemed to split into two pieces, with a smaller circular piece falling toward the ground. It may have remained in place longer but I was driving so I eventually lost site of it.

Napier (Hawkes Bay) (New Zealand) · New Zealand
Disk of lights observed silently hovering, traveling less than 40km/h (25mi/h). We were at the lookout behind Whirinaki Beach at around midnight. We noticed a strange droning sound, looking out towards Whirinaki and the sea. We also noticed strange flickering lights hovering over the coast (about 300-400m away). As we observed it, we noticed it was a disc-shaped object, approximately the size of the beachfront houses. It was floating above, 10m (33ft) across. We noticed the object had flickering colours of light traveling along the body. After about a minute of watching the object float slowly southwards along Whirinaki Beach, with an altitude of around 40-50m asl, the object slowed and turned. We heard a strange droning sound again, which sounded like a decelerating ghost from Halo. The object then put out a bright yellow light from the front, which grew in intensity from a small star like spec to a hand held spotlight pointed towards us. At this point we started leaving the lookout and the object disappeared behind the hill.

Tulsa, OK
I am a aircraft ground handler at Tulsa International Airport (KTUL). Between 14:27 and 14:33, I was servicing a plane parked on the B terminal, when I heard the local Air National Guard F-16s taking off. I watched the lead aircraft rotate on Runway 36R heading North and then a small white disc- shaped cloud above the airport caught my eye. The "cloud" began to accelerate to the east from a stationary position at a high rate of speed until it disappeared from my vision. 4 F-16s in total took off and circled the airport for aproximately 30 mins, then landed and taxied back to the Air Guard base. 2 had local Oklahoma 138th FW tail markings and 2 had Ohio 180th FW markings.

I was awoken from sleep by a presence in the room last night. When I opened my eyes there was a red fog engulfing the entire room. I tried to wake my wife up but she wouldn't budge. Not even my dog who was sleeping on the bed would wake up. Just like a vacuum, I watched the fog get sucked out of my bedroom door (which was open). I was extremely scared but chose to run to my front door. There was a slight buzzing noise coming from outside (sorry I'm getting goosebumps real bad just thinking about this). I opened the door and looked up. Not 50 feet above the ground was a blueish chrome disk sitting almost motionless in the air. This was at night and it's weird how I was able to see the distinct blueish chrome color of the disk. There was a slight wobble to it also. I felt like something was staring at me. The disk was about 30 feet around and had a small "base" on top of it. There were no lights or markings on it. It sat there for about! a minute or two (I think but it's almost like I had been staring at it for 15 minutes) and the buzzing noise stopped. There was a pop that came from it (there go the goosebumps again) like a balloon popping and it slowly lifted straight into the air. When it got about I'd say 100 or so feet up it faded out of sight into nothingness. I ran back into my house to check on my 2 year old son and he was fine. I was able to wake my wife up and asked if she had seen anything. She got teary eyed and without saying anything went immediately back to sleep. My dog almost looked sad and went back to sleep as well. This by far is the weirdest and unnerving thing I have ever witnessed in my life. I'm am scared s**tless since last night. While I have seen "UFO's" in the sky before and reported them on this site, this again by far has confirmed my belief that something else is out there. I know I wasn't dreaming, I don't do drugs, I wasn't on any medication, nothing. What the hell happened last night? We spoke via telephone with the source of the report, and he sounded to us to be sincere, and sober-minded. We suspect that he is an excellent, and reliable, source of information. PD

Looking out at around 10:00pm we saw 3 discs or UFO's in the sky NE direction 2 were smaller and less light the other one was hovering and glowing/pulsating/sparkling and strobing very bright white light the other 2 were flying near the larger one and then started moving out towards the ocean east and away the bright one stayed awhile longer just hovering not moving. My other witness said that it also looked suspicious and not anything seen before. This is the same area that I've seen many times where bright lights hover in place for at least 10-30 minutes and then just disappear. We happen to live near the ocean east of us. In the summer, at around 5:00pm, sun was still out & clear sky, I was standing out with neighbor we both saw it and we saw a plane in the same direction coming from the South going North with an orb (whitish) going at a great speed flying in and out criss-crossing behind the plane. I was in awe as I was with this latest sighting. I never saw UFO's before until living in this area. We have a nuclear plant nearby so maybe that has something to do with the attraction

My boyfriend & I were driving down Sunset Ave. I saw as an object omitting white light was coming down like a shooting star. I quickly realized that's not what a star looks like. It stopped for about 3 seconds and that's when I saw the object was round & a green light flashed from the side of it. It then quickly went east disappearing into the sky.

Tokyo (Japan) · Japan
There were four objects seen, all of them were disk shaped. They hovered in the air for a couple of minutes, before gliding away in the direction of the mountains. They gave off a blueish-green light, but seemed to flash yellow once every few seconds. Although they were seen in Tokyo, the objects were well above the lights of the city. In addition to this, Tokyo is not extremely bright to begin with, especially where the objects were spotted. At the time of the sighting, myself and three friends were in my apartment on the 11th floor. The shapes and lights were clearly identifiable.

Was standing at the river taking pics of the clouds and lightning and spotted the UFO after looking at the photo. I can even see a vapor-like emission coming from the bottom as commonly described. I can also make out what appears to be an orb-like formation in the center on the underside of the craft. It is in the southwest direction.

I saw a blimp shape craft behind the clouds pulsating a irregular patter in a band across on side of the craft. The craft was cruzing at low altitudes the whether was extremely stormy and it just stopped raining. The craft was coasting slow like a blimp does, but then increased to jet speeds in a matter of seconds. The pulsating light stopped and the craft gave off a final flash and was gone. I was draving when I saw the craft. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

It appears the he caught a UFO shooting out of the water possible doing a barrel roll then the object proceeds to fly somewhat tords them, then makes a slight correction and heads straight to them and lowers something from the bottom of the craft while flying past them. I’m including the full video uncut. You will see the object appear at 36 seconds on the video lasting 4 seconds in total. Bird in flight. PD

I was waiting for the bus and saw this strange silver, shimmering disk with blue lights around it. I was baffled and frightened. I am confident it was not a plane. I know what I saw, and it was not any type of plane. It moved in an unnatural way hovering and then shot straight up at an astounding speed. However after it left, I realized I missed my bus, and I was ten minutes late for school. And have been having nightmares of waking up at night and seeing a strange beings at the foot of my bed. This is not a hoax so please don't think it is I'm not making any of this up.

It was a disk shaped object that consist of 3 lights that formed around it like a belt 2 white 1 red (center light) and they were pulsating this thing just sat there and just swayed side to side no noise no smoke just whatever it was in the clear sky. I'm in total shock I have a video and would like to know where can I go to get it checked out.
