It is grayish color and flying in front of our house. More like a big plate with red flashes underneath it! I was staring at it for a good 5-10 seconds and forget to capture it fast! And then it disappeared, really quick!

Phoenix, AZ
I WAS ON MY WAY ON THE FEEWAY LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW GOING NORTH OUT OF PHOENIX. IT WAS DARK GOING THROUGH THE CANYON, AND IT WAS A FULL MOON. AS I STARTED LOOKING IN THE SKIES, I SAW THIS OBJECT, JUST HOVERING, ABOVE THE SKYLINE, WITH THE FOOTHILLS TO ITS BACK. IT WAS HUGE, AND IT WAS NOT MOVING, JUST FLOATING, AND IT GLOWED A BEAUTIFUL BLUISH PALE LAVENDER. IT HAD SHADOWS ON THE TOP HALF OF THE CRAFT, THAT SHOWED STRUCTURE OR FORM LIKE SQUARE WINDOWS WITH THE BOTTOM HALF OF THE CRAFT SEPARATED OR IT WAS A DARK SHADOW ALL THE WAY AROUND THE MIDDLE OF THE CRAFT. IT WAS SO THREE D LOOKING JUST, THERE IN THE SKY. I ASKED MY HUSBAND, AM I SEEING THINGS? DO YOU SEE THAT? WHAT IS IT? I SWEAR IT'S A UFO, I SAID TO HIM. HE FINALLY SAW IT AND SAID, "THAT IS REALLY WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE, MAN," HE SAID. "THATS SCARY! IT WAS AN UFO. THE BEST I HAVE EVER WITNESSED."

So i carried on watering my garden Maybe 30 seconds later i looked again this time i kept watching it as it went straight over my head roughly 1.5 metres above my head literally right over my head. So i got a good look at it. It was a darker blue in colour about the size of a deflated fitness ball in circumfrence and about 30cm in width way to small for a human to fit in it i could not say what material it was. Now this was defying gravity as if it was just floating forwards in a straight line at roughly 15km per hour. If you stand a coin up on a desk that is the way it was facing as it went over my head it slowy started to spin when it done that i couldnt believe my eyes and was very hesatent wether to go grab my mum to come have a look as i didnt want to miss a second but i quickly got her and she seen it aswell. It has never happened again. It made absolutely no noise and was roughly going east to west towards the ocean. Witness submits hand-drawn illustration, indicating a round, disc-shaped object, with concentric lines circling the ventral surface. PD

One of three reports from the same source. We are uncertain as to whether they are intended as serious-minded reports. Possible sighting of stars? PD

Woke up to go to bathroom in middle of night- approximately 5:30 am as I layed back down I was looking out the window and saw a bright light appear quickly over the neighboring tree line. It was in a distance but I sat and watched it for 10 minutes - at first it was stationary but as I lined it up with the grid in the window I could measure its slight change of movement. I asked my husband to look at it and he said at first glance that it was a star. Then as he watched longer he saw it move. He got the binoculars and said Wow- you got to see this! It has five lights on it and it is hovering. It had five lights in a row with the middle light being the largest the lights changed colors from yellow green to red blue. It looked really large way larger than a small airplane. It hovered at a lower altitude until daybreak then it ascended higher into the sky. It clearly looked like a star with the naked eye as it got higher in the sky. It appeared that the daybreak was what drove it higher in the sky. We saw it make movements directly up - then quickly shifting side to side them down - it was really high in the sky still at 9:00 am but then cloud cover came and could not view it under the clouds anymore. Really strange - it truly looked like in the alien movies - just like those spaceships with the lights. We have never seen anything like this before!! We will be watching the sky from now on. So wierd to see something like this!! Possible sighting of 5 planets in eastern a.m. sky? PD

First off I have never reported a unidentified object. I am 51 and been in aviation all my life. Pilot both fixed wing/heli. 35+ yrs in rc aircraft and quadcopters for the last 10. Bottom line is I have seen most every type of aircraft, civilian, military and remote controlled craft. Object was moving extremely fast E to W. The refection of the sun is what got my attention. Sky conditions are severe clear,bright sun. Object appeared shiny and possible pointed in the front. Overall the classic bullet shape. No wings or tail seen. Size and altitude are hard to judge but my estimate is either it was 5 thousand agl and the size of a fighter or fl 300 and airline sized. The speed either way was very fast. No sound. None. Had it been a fighter at that speed it would be Mach 1 + easily. Tracked E- W until going out of view. Hard to judge distance but best est is less than 5 miles away. Again its alt and distance depends apon the size of the craft, which I cannot verify.

During the occurred UFO Sighting that I saw during this event was just a shocking event. That object was hallowing in up and giving some weird lights from up. It also showed some blinking spot-lights.* The object gave hunnering sound. It was Steady going. It was large and path stationery. Many people were seeing that object on the road. First time my father have seen that object and then he have informed me. I was just shocked to see that freak Object. That Object was freaking downside. It was a shocking site means it was a shocking event. It was close to Us. But was very far. It hallowed us means it surprised us. It was a great event that I saw in the City. My father and all were just shocked to see that Freak Object. It was light, means it was a full of lights object that it was looking of heavy and many Lights. There were two Major light. It was a very big object and it also moved here & there during its sighting. It was just very Ground to the Earth. We all were shocked very Immediately when we just saw that huge object. First we just thought that it was an fake object but then I just thinked upon that really it may be fake or not? It was not a fake as per my thinking because as per me that Object was not fake because I just observed that particular object very carefully and I really found that No! NO! It was not fake! It is Real! And it can't be fake! I believed that it was just a real event and very true phenomenon. It is my believance. My father just ignored that it was fake and also all the members present in our car also concluded that it was fake. But No!!!!!!! It was just a Real Freaky Object. It was just very very True. And it can't be ignored...... Its my thinking and my Opinion and my thought that it is real... IT WAS NOT A FAKE SIGHTING! IT WAS A TRUE SIGHTING THAT I SAW! IT WAS REALLY NOT A FAKE PHENOMENA.* IT WAS JUST A TRUE OBJECT! ~ Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

I was immediately drawn to this cloud. I exited my car and leaned back on the front never taking my eyes off of the cloud. I have no idea how I knew, but I was fully aware that there was an occupied object of some type seemingly “hiding” in that cloud. I occurred to me that the object, which I could not see, must be giving off some type of electrical energy or radiation. Why else would a person stand in the middle of the street in 30 degree weather with no coat on. I watched this cloud, I think without blinking, for a good 7-10 minutes. I knew something was going to happen…again, I am not sure how. As if following my wishes, as I was cold and grew impatient for the event I knew was going to come, a silver/grey disk rose up in clear view. Simultaneously, the object took off at a speed I can’t begin to explain. Speed like that would kill a human.. the G-force must have been off the chart. I tracked it with my eyes, but at the speed it was traveling my eyes were not quick enough and for a moment, I lost track. I kept my eyes steady and picked it up again and followed the object down range until it appeared the size of a pinhead. It headed up, punched through the blue sky and seemingly out of the atmosphere. I was so close to this event that I could see the craft was 25-35 feet in diameter. Also, as it rose up and blasted away, it also took the cloud with it. I looked back, stunned out of my mind, and there was nothing w! here the cloud had been. I never did go to the store. I went straight back to my apartment and felt that I had been jerked from the reality that we all live in to another completely different place. Little did I know that there was more to come.

Deep Cove sighting Report As we sat to eat some pizza at a park table and bench near the canoe rental at Deep Cove, looking North, I noticed a small light that caught my attention, as it was moving quite rapidly in many directions at the North West end of the Inlet. To put it in perspective, the mountains at the end of the Indian arm inlet are about 1500 meters in height and they are the North Eastern Horizon, when looking from Deep Cove’s Gallant Avenue. The sighting occurred in the South East face of Seymour Mountain while we were looking from the South side of the canoe rental outlet at the first of two park’s covered table. It was night time and the fog line was about four to five hundred meters above the water at the mountain face. Directly in front of us was Deep Cove Yate Club and to the right of our vision range, would be mid sight a place called Cory Rock, past the Marina, the sighting was to the North East of Cory Rock. A small light was moving around almost at the fog line at the mountain side definitively at the forest located at the North West end of the Indian Arm Inlet, past Cory Rock, past the Woodlands community and above it. The small light, caught my attention and I asked my daughter if she had seen it. She replied yes, it may be someone with a flash light in the woods in the woods. It did not make sense to me, as the trees are all over 100 feet tall in that forest, and whoever was passing around the light, should have been way taller than the tree line. Suddenly, the small light transformed into a huge search light like beam of intense white light (halogen type). The diameter of the light was larger than anti aerial search lights. Suddenly, it was overlapped by a light of the same diameter and size (easily the diameter of a two levels house) given the distance, the aerial phenomena suddenly expanded to a series of round lights with three to four square or semi rectangular windows of light in between also observed by my daughter however omitted in her report. Then it came the most spectacular encounter with extraterrestrial intelligence ever; a large beam of light came from the center of the apparat or flying disk that illuminated the fog and created a daylight effect at the mountain, which allowed the true three dimensional perspective of size to be seeing. It had at that point no less than three and up to four of the round search lights with the large semi rectangular windows of light in between, it had come from behind Mount Seymour, to hover silently above the inlet, when suddenly started a display of lights equal only to the PNE show of lights. However, these beams were more potent. Given the distance and the fact that the object covered a great portion of the Mountain and horizon. A conservative estimate of height or thickness of the saucer like object, could be 100 meters and its full diameter 7 to 10 full moons which could equate given the distance to a quarter to one third of a mile or 400 to 600 meters in diameter. Minimum, hovering over 100 Meter above the water. The object in the same manner that materialized itself, dematerialized or placed all multiple potent search beams and lights going in all directions, off. Leaving a dome with what I perceived to be some windows, as the sole visible lights. I managed to take two pictures. Picture 1. Is a total blank image white color in my black berry (never had that happen) the second one amazingly enough, shows an angle that was not the one I was focusing but the picture shows more of the village, or no less than 30-45 degrees left of where my camera was actually pointing at the smaller light. Afraid of the whole situation given the sheer size of the spaceship and lights show, we fast walked, almost run to Deep Cove to talk to someone. Our friend was busy, so we went back to the ocean lookout at the end of Gallant Avenue. There was no light yet, it suddenly returned not for long or in full splendor but it did, hovered there for a while and disappeared in the fog at the end of the inlet sky. I could only equate it to a spaceship the size of Independence day. Having had multiple experiences with these machines, I declare the one we saw, was something that if it was seen in any city of the Planet, general world panic would ensue. When I sought I had seen many large UFO in Deep Cove with my daughter last year, this one, was a close up, mother ship and a half. Sorry for my grammar and composition, I am a miner, not a writer.

Deep Cove UFO sighting: Jan 6, 2016. Personal background I am an adult, part time artist, living in Deep Cove, North Vancouver. I have lived in the area of Deep Cove, in North Vancouver, B.C. for most of my life, around 25 + years. To give a brief description of my personal background I believe in peace on Earth, and aim to contribute my energies there. Lately, more than before in previous years I have been seeing objects floating in the night sky that are hard to identify or even explain. Many of these experiences have been UFO sightings. Description of the UFO sighting I witnessed with my father on the night of Thursday, Jan 6th, 2016, at approx. 9:30 pm.: At approx. 9:30pm, as my father and I were sitting at the benches on the hillside next to the proximity of the kayaking facility/rental business, just south, facing north of Panorama Park, in downtown Deep Cove, we both witnessed a massive unidentified floating object, or disc, hovering at the height of approx. 100 - 200 meters above sea level; floating absolutely silently over the Marina, initially appearing from behind Seymour Mountain. It had at first appeared at the top of the mountain peak, near beside a popular look out - Quarry Rock. This object was round or disc shaped, appearing dark in color. When it first appear, however, it was just a singular light. Then it proceeded to leave the area coming over the Marina, directly hovering over the ocean (cove inlet). It stayed there for at least a minute, shining its lights (which was initially just one singular, then became three lights, then became multiple). As the object descended from the mountain over the ocean, it expanded and became a massive round shaped disc, approx. 10 or more times the size in diameter - to that of the moon the in sky- multiplying its array of displayed visible lights, to approx. over one dozen bright lights. The lights at first were the same size and large, and as the object expanded over the ocean and became a larger disc shape, the lights became different shapes and sizes (large-round & small-square), and were arranged in symmetry around the object’s outer edge. Pattern of the lights around the edge: was one large-round light, then three to four little ones, then one large one, etc. At this point the UFO then proceeded to shine these lights out in all directions. The light itself was very bright and powerful, but not seemingly blinding. It was a contained light, and not ‘radiating’ outward, but ‘concentrated’, spotting certain areas. My father and I were both facing north at the time of the sighting, and were both standing at approx. 30 feet above sea level. There was a thick fog in the sky. Although I have a hard time recalling if it was in fact clear out, or if there was stars visible. The photo we snapped appears to have many star like lights in the image. Finished this report at 1:20 am Jan 7th, 2016.

We watched three bright objects slowly move across the western sky, one was significantly larger than the others. The objects were glowing bright yellow/gold in the setting sun. We could not tell the shape of the objects until a picture was examined to show a saucer shape. The larger object had two metallic looking orbs appear to the right of the object. The orbs moved along with the larger object then disappear after about 15 seconds. All the objects continued west and were observed until out of site. This observation lasted about 15 minutes.

Le 1er janvier 2016 à 0h16 un témoin observe le déplacement silencieux dans le ciel de phénomènes lumineux de couleur flamme. Les objets se déplacent vers le NNE sur une trajectoire horizontale à basse altitude. L'observation dure 5 minutes. Aucun autre témoignage dans le secteur n'est rapporté. L'observation de boules ou disques orange traversant le ciel en quelques minutes, une nuit de week-end ou festive comme celle de la Saint-Sylvestre fait nettement penser à des lanternes thaïlandaises, probablement lâchées à proximité à l'issue d'une fête privée. Le déplacement par lots de 4 ou 5 alignés horizontalement, résulte probablement de lancements rapprochés en séquences, séparées par un temps plus long. Le déplacement est observé vers le Nord-Est alors que le vent relevé dans le secteur (à 8 km) est vers le Nord- Ouest. Mais depuis le lieu d'observation, le témoin ne peut guère apprécier convenablement que la composante Sud vers Nord du déplacement. En conséquence le GEIPAN classe le cas en B : probable lanternes thailandaises. [GEIPAN classification B — Lanterne thai]

Hi, I took pictures from the plane window on 28th December 2015 at 11:34 AM (BRT). I was going from Vitoria (Espirito Santo state, Brazil) to Sao Paulo (Sao Paulo state, Brazil) Already at home, I saw an object on my husband’s phone, which was high above the clouds, so you can say that it is not a cloud part. The weather was very clear. I did several pictures in a row (like every 2-5 seconds). On one picture, the object appears and on the next one, it disappears. On the third picture, it appears again but in another place and more far. I will email photos I took that day. On the photo, you can notice the Domed Sauser shape. Also, you can see that there is the same shape spot over the object but it’s more transparent. Pictures: IMG_20151228_113420830 - 11:34 AM (BRT) - no object IMG_20151228_113426476 - 11:34 AM (BRT) - object appears IMG_20151228_113518118 - 11:35 AM (BRT) - object disappears IMG_20151228_113523788 - 11:35 AM (BRT) - object appears again

Probable conventionalSaint-Vallier-De-Thiey, Provence Alpes Cote d'azur · France
Le 27 décmbre 2015 entre 17h05 et 17h15 un automobiliste est stupéfait de voir dans le ciel la présence d'un objet orange fluo de la forme "d'une assiette à soupe renversée". L'objet, qui semble stationnaire, est entouré par un halo de couleur orange. L'objet part en direction du SO et aucun bruit n'est entendu durant le déplacement. Il disparait à l'horizon. Plusieurs automobilistes, arrêtés au bord de la route, auraient également observé le phénomène. Un seul témoignage sera rapporté. L'observation de boule orange dans le ciel durant quelques minutes, une nuit de week-end, fait nettement penser à une lanterne thaïlandaise, probablement lâchée depuis Saint-Vallier à l'issue d'une fête privée à l'occasion des fêtes de fin d'année. Le déplacement observé est faible, partant vers le Sud-Ouest. Le vent relevé à la station météorologique de Auribeau-sur-Siagne, à 12 km, est nul (voir le relevé Infoclimat du jour de l'observation. A cette heure-ci, en zone montagneuse, au coucher du soleil, il existe des vents très locaux, selon les vallées, très légers, difficilement prévisibles. Ce relevé météo n'apporte pas d'information déterminante pour confirmer l'hypothèse de lanterne thaïlandaise. L'absence de résultat sur la photo n'est pas surprenante : les caméras des téléphones portables sont très peu performantes en lumière faible. Néanmoins, malgré le manque d'éléments permettant de confirmer cette hypothèse, étant donné la description du phénomène et la fréquence élevée de lâchers de lanternes en période de fin d'année, le GEIPAN classe ce cas "B" : observation probable de lanterne thaïlandaise.

Early yesterday, Monday morning. I was driving towards my farm in a westerly direction, when I noticed an hot air balloon that was about to land right next to the road. I stopped and took a photo with my cell phone before I continued. About 4 hours later I looked at the photo again and it was then that I noticed a very white object in the background of the photo. With the limited enlargement capacity of the instrument I noticed a craft. I immediately realized that this was no object of known origin. It looks like it was moving at an angle of about 35 degrees with a radiation towards the front and the back. It also seems that the craft was emitting a strange glow. I am sure that if this photo could be enhanced more secrets might be known!

Madison, MS
Last night Thursday, December 17th, 2015, (7:00 PM). I ran into Walgreen's in Madison, MS, leaving my father in the car, when I returned I apologized for taking so long (10 min.), his reply was that’s ok, I have been watching the weirdest things in the sky, he said look over there and where he pointed there were two disc shaped objects with lights changing from red to green. They looked like they were hovering over Home Depot, it put chills all over me! We sat there a few more minutes (7:15 PM) and decided to leave and go out of the city where there would be no light pollution to watch them. We drove about a mile and lost them, after getting to an area that was dark and a clear shot of the sky we parked and looked for another 5 or so minutes without seeing anything, I then left heading west after a couple of miles I turned back east and drove to a top of a hill where we saw them again (7:35 PM), they were much further away to the west and not as close together but were stationary and changing from red, green to white. There were several planes in the sky so you could defiantly tell they were not planes. After another 5 or so minute’s they shot off to the West. I decided to report this sighting after my father called me to tell me someone from the Madison Airport reported seeing several UFO’s last night. This is not my first time seeing this type of thing, I grew up about 15 miles west of Madison, MS, and in the time I lived in Flora, MS (21 yrs.) I saw more than I can count Unidentified Flying Objects mostly in the Big Black River bottom west of town. There have been several national stories done on all of the UFO sightings in that area. This is the first time in 28-30 years I have seen any, but knowing from many years ago you could see a lot of them for a few months and then not see any for months or longer. I believe if you will watch you will continue to see them for a while. I will be watching for more sightings in the weeks to come with a good camera in hand.
