When not to walk the dog I looked up in the sky I saw will look to be a star moving in the direction from north to south I thought it was a plane as it moved little bit behind it follows another one and right behind that one the same distance and other another one and another one on a straight line without moving they followed one after the other perfect motion there must have been about 15 of them has it moved across the sky imperfect sequence I don't think plants do that with the same distance apart same speed they never change color just look like a little white. Wait about 15 right behind it fall in straight line no sounds of aircraft have a really high in the sky

My husband and I were sitting in our balcony overlooking our neighbor’s roof and in the distance, a bright light, like a spotlight, just appeared out of nowhere. It hovered for a few minutes while we watched wondering what it was. We got our iPhone to start recording to see if we could get a closer look then it moved and shot up so far up in the sky by the stars and hovered. Then shot across the sky over our home.

The object we saw was very large at first, It was a large red/yellow light. It lasted for a split second and then the light stopped. It started going moving strangely, like a zigzag motion except it was just getting higher while doing the zigzag motion. it looked like a satellite but it was going way to fast and they don't generally move like that.

On August 14th, at 4am in the morning I took my dog out side. It was a cloudless, clear morning, with no rain or unsettled weather in the forecast. I looked up and though I saw a strange new constellation of stars in a long line. But the stars were moving. The objects were following each other a high rate of speed in a straight line. They were circular and bright white, no blinking lights and no sound. They were not planes or satellites as there were 16 of them in a straight line with different spacing between them, some were closer to each other and some were further apart almost filling 3/4s of the horizon. They were coming from the west and heading into the east and into the lightening sky. The fact that it was 16 objects in an orderly line made me think this was a patrol or mission. The sighting lasted 2 minutes and the objects disappeared into the dawn light.

I was walking home from a friends when I noticed a convoy of unidentified flying objects flying in a straight line in groups of two with wide spaces between the groups. they were glowing white but it seemed as if there were a pilot due to them not always moving in complete synchronization they were headed east and anyone that was looking at the sky in that moment was guaranteed to spot them and I have witnessed many strange objects before but I need to know if anyone has seen anything like this before I was blown away.

We were enjoying the eastern night sky at approx 945 pm and I noticed what I thought might be international space station somewhere top left of Orion’s Belt, object moves left in sky very distant and small but noticeable for about 1 min and then literally turned - Approx 45 degrees down to left kind of towards night horizon , mE and my friend saw it and were convinced it was space station until it changed course for about 10 seconds and we lost track of it in night sky, neither of us have ever seen anything like it , weird!

I recorded the object on multiple occasions in the same location of the sky over Denver County. I also took pictures through binoculars and with my cell phone. At first the object appeared faint yellow, then the color changed to reddish as it continuously hovered, moving slightly to the north. It disappeared and reappeared multiple times, but almost in the same spot. It did just hover and didn't make any sudden accelerations. I have witnessed this same object, along with at least 3 other witnesses. It was a circle, with approximately 6-8 round lights that lined the inside, top of the circle. There was a brighter white, solid sphere towards the middle of the inside of the circle that seemed to throw 2 reflective beams towards the left, inside of the circle. I did not witness any lights or beams outside of the circle. I have heard that Denver has known sightings of strange objects in the sky, but have never witnessed any, until this object. I am happy to send photos and couple of short videos.

I saw a large round white light with 3 small bluish white blinking lights on 3 sides. Moving low and semi slow. Moving east to west. Was driving so I watched until it went out of sight. From the way the li ghts appeared it must have been a triangular object but can’t be sure. It was definitely not an airplane.

So last night I went out to watch the night sky for falling stars/meteorites. In the course of 1/2hr I saw at least 1dozen stars, that were travelling slowly and very very far up in space. These were small to see as they were very far away. I also saw falling meteorites with bright tail lights that would quickly fizzle out. The interesting part of the night that I experienced was at roughly 11:20pm. As I was laying in the park looking up into the night sky, I noticed what I initially thought was 5 to 7 geese flying in a V shaped formation, however as I sat up and starred more intently I realized it was not geese . There was no noise and no identifiable flapping of wings. The objects were circular in shape, and had a brownish hue, with very slight aura of diffused light around. There was no real identifiable tail light of bright colour, and this formation flew what seemed to be very methodical, and did not break its flying formation for the quick time that I witnessed it. (7seconds). This did not seem to be a satellite or a star or a broken up meteorite. I can only describe it the way I witnessed it. It flew from, Eastward to Westward . I only wish I would have had been recording with my cell phone. The only other object in the sky that appeared after my sighting was the local Police Traffic Plane that circles the town, I am wondering if they saw anything, it was very close to the time frame I am referencing.

We didn’t see a craft. What we saw a flashing moving light. It was off to my left. At first I thought it was an airplane. But then I thought it was too low . It quickly shot to my right (north), it quickly changed direction and came toward us (East) then quickly changed direction and shot off northeast. I thought it looked blue with a white glow. My friend thought it was green with a white glow.

There were 4 fireballs over the ocean probably 100 feet above the shore line. It was straight across from 6th street in North Myrtle Beach. They lasted about 5 seconds and went out one at a time very quickly. They looked like 4 separate campfires in the sky. They were very close to shore and looked slightly above my straight out view of my 3rd floor condo room. The observer backgrounds are 2 college education 30-something adults. A seventy-seven year old woman and a social worker 50 years of age.

Was looking up at sky and saw a very bright light, I thought it was a super bright star at first. It didn’t move for maybe a minute, but then seemed to slowly start moving. After maybe 15 seconds, the light dimmed about 70% and it began flying very fast diagonally up and westward until out of view.

Very faint, opaque, white ball of dim light. Traveled from the lowest point in Cassiopeia constellation, up thru the center of Andromeda constellation; at a fast but consistent pace. I described it to my husband as a dull, slow moving meteorite, falling the wrong way.

Because she seemed alarmed, my husband and I drove out to her house to look with them. It was getting close to 21:00 before we got there and they said they could still see it but it was fainter in the sky as the sun was setting. The kids could still see it with their naked eye but I had to use the telescope as my eye sight is not as good as theirs. It was a circular object and I could not tell if it was like a ball or more like a wheel. The center seemed to be transparent almost like it was a bubble. It looked like it was a clock face with only one hand showing or a wheel with only one spoke. Inside the circle was a rectangular shape with a blinking light on each corner. The object went back and forth from east to west and then back from west to east. It was moving fast enough that you had to move the telescope to keep it in sight. It was not shooting across the sky, but more drifting. It seemed like it was following a grid or mapping. It faded in and out and was not always visible. It flashed bright orange one time but only for a second. I wondered if the distant lightning was reflecting off it. There were several planes in the area but we live within a couple of miles of a small airport. We would really like to know if it was something that could be explained. We posted it on Facebook and had several replies that our friends and neighbors went out to see if they could see it. Only one friend said they saw 2 of them. No one else said they could see it.

Last night at 9:00 I saw a figure which much looked like a star, but then it started moving then I thought...hmm maybe its a plane, but then it had a red light blinking on and off then it stopped moving for a bit then I thought it still was moving but it just stayed there. Then my sister started to ask me, "brother what are those blinking lights, are those stars., "I said", "I don't know. then after that I went to bed

It was beautiful clear night not a cloud in sight, I just got home from driving 15 mins from work and wanted to chill out before going inside. I decided to stargaze just for a few, while I was staring up at the stars through my sun roof the stars went black and I couldn’t see them, a few seconds go by and an orange orb appears and there’s 6 of them in a row and 3 in a column. I was astonished at what I was seeing, there was no noise no wind nothing and as soon as it leaves the sight of the sun roof it disappeared.

The moon seems to be unusually radiating and shining with a aura of greenish light instead of the usual yellow bright light. I have never seen a greenish aura around the moon before.

11:30pm, a great night for star gazing from the back patio. I’m showing off my astronomy skills so my girlfriend asks “what is that star?” I look at it and it’s really really high up to be a plane or a helicopter. It was whiteish with seemingly red flashes. I must have been staring at it for ten straight minutes and it begins dancing in the sky! It still look like a star at this point but the movements were totally unnatural, up, down, left, sideways, diaganol, and the speeds it must have been moving at weren’t possible. That’s when it happened. As we’re staring at the first UFO, a second UFO appears hovering maybe two streets behind our house, at a height of a 4 story building. We got an incredible view of it because it has flown so close. My best description would be that it looked Roomba (robot vacuum cleaner) hovering in the air. It was too dark to accurately report a color. Looked darker and metallic maybe. It was circular and seemingly to totally flat! on top and bottom. I would guesstimate that it wasn’t very large, maybe the size of a small circular coffee table. It wasn’t rotating at all. I could tell because it had this bright blinking red light like a security camera and some dimmer white lights built in, but the lights weren’t spinning and the red flashing light was aimed right at us the entire time. This creeped us out because it almost looked like it knew we were looking and was looking back at us. Moving so so slow through the sky. At first I thought a neighbor kid might have a drone, but as it did a fly by, I quickly realized no drone would look like that. There were no propellor, a very light whooshhhhhhhhh sound was made, and it glided through the air but so so slowly. Felt like 5 mph. This part of the experience last 2 minutes or so, but it was enough to scare us to go inside. I looked over at my girlfriend and we (sane and rational intellectuals) both sat there trying to grasp what we just witnessed. It re! ally didn’t feel real. After a few minutes, a collection of ab! out 3 mo re star looking lights appeared in the sky. Again, very high in the sky, red/white in color, variations of different movements but mostly stationary. Background: Me: Male, 28, Pennsylvania. Bachelors degree in Economics, Master of Business Administration degree. Currently work as an investment analyst for a investment management firm. GF: Female, 28, Pennsylvania. Doctorate of Pharmacy degree. Works in retail pharmacy. We have both never seen anything like it, it was scary/interesting/weird/mind-opening. I really didn’t know if I believe until I saw the second one. If it was a drone, that drone would cost $1 million.
