Norwich, CT
On 8/6/18 at approximately 1:05 p.m., I saw, what appeared to be a helicopter, free fall to hover over the trees about a quarter mile from my building, less than 1000 feet up. It moved side to side as if troubled with control. I thought it was going to crash. Then it turned sideways and the sun shone off it brightly. It was not a helicopter and seemed maybe bullet shaped, of bright chrome. It continued to attempt control then steadied itself for a few seconds before flying straight up above the clouds. I could still see it through a hole in the clouds and watched until it shot off to my right, traveling fast enough that the only reason I saw it again was because the sun hit the chrome once more, before it was out of view.

Ione, WA
Was viewing Jupiter thru 30 power scope on total station. I saw a bright white light about as bright as Jupiter and tracked it for a while as it headed west to east (heading was about about 90 to 110 degrees). Last seen thru scope angle was 203d 21' 54", elevation 27d 13' 11" (from my location at 48d, 46' 58.1", -117d 17' 16.5", ne of Ione WA). Object did not have any flashing navigation lights and I went outside to listen for sound and could hear nothing, no wind. It traversed my field of view about 5 degrees west and above jupiter to the hill to my south east in perhaps less than 35~45 seconds.

Object was an orb at tree level, size of basketball. This was in the woods, no one else there besides us 2. The orb glowed orange/white color and "danced" aimlessly 5-25". Was not a flashlight, flashlights make objects light, this was it's own light source. Light itself was a glow, though not bright, and contained to only the object, nothing else was lit by it.

On this evening I was outside on my phone, when I heard what I thought was a military cargo plane flying over. It wasn't. It was a giant drone. It was black and had green lights on all four arms. It was very loud. I could see it was a drone. It flew over my house and over the mountain it moved very fast. About 5 minutes later a small private plane flew by in the same direction of the drone. It scared me. A few nights later I could hear the noise of the cargo plane coming. I ran outside to see and it was the cargo plane but it now has green lights on it. Very strange. Cargo planes have red lights. Some friends of mine came by last night to visit and they mentioned to me that they were out the other evening and seen a huge drone the size of a full size pickup flying from the high country over to the feilds where I live. It was quiet according to my friends. It then flew back over the mountain. The drone I seen was big. Maybe the size of two full size pickups.

Was working in the tobacco field when I looked over at another field I clearly seen this square sliver ship slowly come straight down and got pretty close to the tobacco. The same path it came down from, it used it to go back up into the clouds.

Tice, FL
Almost stopping in mid-air then cruising southward. Low roar to start then 800 ft. later adding a deep low pitch whistle until out of sight. All silver. Just hundreds of yards away. It looked like a large 747 with bent wing tips accept it had almost stopped in mid flight. Then 3 hundred yards away it added a red color paint job on to its under-back tail section. Exact same time the frontal fuselage turned all white. Binoculars on it the whole way. I saw it change. The closest ever. GPS. Exactly Bellaire St. and Palm Beach Blvd. Added red and white. No longer silver. Sound, color and speed. All very unusually different on this one. Number 5 on the day out of 16,145 total. Update: 8/1/2018 16,163 total. All MIMICS. 95% silent. We have requested more information from the source of the report. Please see the second report from the same witness PD

Gary, IN
I was waiting for my wife and I decided to get some pics of the old City Methodist Church. i did not see the object until i decided to use the video camera on my phone, which is an lg k7. when i looked at the phone at the object it was hovering and appeared to be spinning at about the height of the churches roof. It then moved to the left a few feet then to the right, and made a very fast circular motion. it then dipped down below my line of sight for a couple of seconds. It then came back up still spinning, I think thats when I moved to get in a better position to record what i was seeing, and that's when i lost sight of the object. the wind was blowing pretty hard that day and my first thought was that i was looking at a floating black plastic bag. and it may have been just that, i leave it up to you to decide. i felt very excited and amazed at what i was seeing at the time of the sighting and after. I have to emphasize that I could only see this object when I looked at i! t in the cameras display screen. The object look as if it changes its shape a couple of times. It kind of looked like to grey triangles attached side by side, and then back into a cylinder shape laying horizontally. That is why I can't say that it was only one shape. I have also submitted a report to MUFON (CASE#93958).

Balsam Lake, WI
We were sitting on the dock at a cabin on the Western side and Southern end of Half Moon Lake. Across the lake, above the tree line and under the moon, we saw an orange ball rise at the speed of a drone. We thought it was a drone, until it went higher than any drone could fly. It was about 1/4 the size of the full moon when it rose, much larger than any starts or aircrafts we could see in the sky. When it rose to the height of an airplane, it moved across the sky to the Southern side of the lake. It stopped moving or slowed down significantly for at least 7 seconds. It then suddenly and very rapidly moved East towards Mars (which was visible to us and looked like a very bright star). It moved as if it was shooting off. It then disappeared as if the light had just gone out.

Roswell, GA
I have experienced one of the most beautiful sightings ever! This is the details: On July 24, 2018 @ our home in Roswell, Georgia, at approximately 9:50PM, we were on our driveway saying goodnight to our daughter, ((name deleted)) and Grandson, ((name deleted)). In the car behind the wheel was ((name deleted))/grandson who is 2 yrs old and in the passenger seat was ((name deleted))/grandson who is 15 yrs old. Myself and my other daughter, ((name deleted)) was video taping them in the car when suddenly a loud humming noise occurred and you can see ((name deleted)) reacting to it trying to get to the window to get a peek. Since the car was parked pretty close to the garage and I was standing closest to the front of the car and the wall of our home goes out from the garage door about 12 ft. straight out. Once the humming started I looked at the edge of the house and saw flashing colored lights that were about to come in view. What happened next was amazing! Moving out in front of our driveway was a small UFO and what followed was the most beautiful V-shaped UFO. As they floated passed the V-shaped UFO slowly rotated. My heart stopped. Everything seemed to go in slow motion. The V was totally covered in colored lights and in the middle of the V-shaped area was a solid surface which was dark gray and had very tiny lights spaced evenly apart. Both UFO's were so lighted and beautiful! We are the first house when you come into our subdivision and the power lines are at the beginning of the street. So as they passed our house they immediately started going up. So you would think that I have pictures/videos since my camera and my daughter's camera were running. I wanted to and tried, but cold not move the camera up. Which I have been kicking myself since. However, I do have the video I took that night and you can hear the humming that they made and ((name deleted--grandson)) reaction trying to see it. Also, the video my daughter took we were able to get a screenshot from hers that show a reflection of a v-shaped object in his sunglasses. From start to finish this experience lasted approximately 14 seconds You can hear me in the video trying to get ((girl's name deleted)) to look, but she was focu sed on ((grandson's name deleted)). I think I was the only one who actually saw it. ((grandson's name deleted)) did say when he got out of the car "so you guys have UFO's?" The things that I learned from this was the following: --If you are close enough, UFO's do make sound/humming. --The v-shaped are only that because of the lights on the edges. To me they are still triangle shaped. --Don't ever assume because you have your camera rolling you are going to get the shot. Thank you for your time! I have been pretty much obsessed with this and am hoping that writing to you helps me let go. Thank you for your attention!!

Newport (UK/England) · United Kingdom
On this particular date, after taking a shower, I found myself looking out my bedroom window to see a object in the air. The best way I can describe this object is that it was shaped like a pill. This object was silver, chrome in color, but it had a red gleam or a red light on it. It just moved across the sky like a plane, but its appearance was a different than a plane obviously, there where no wings on the on the object. I'm a 13 year old that has an interest astronomy and been seeing lots of cylinder, cigar and 'pill' shaped objects. Witness provides no contact information. PD

While on an evening walk, I observed, what I initially thought; was an aircraft approaching from the west, with its landing-lights on. It appeared to be gradually descending, at an altitude of approx. 5,000-7,000 ft, AGL. I found this odd, since there are no airports, in this immediate area. As it came closer, I noticed that had approx. 4-5 non-strobing white-lights, placed at roughly equal distances, along the leading-edge of each wing. It had no stobing lights, or red and green wing-tip lights, as typical aircraft do. Then, it gradually turned north, allowing me to get a side-view of the craft, against a clear, sun-setting sky, at dusk. I saw no tail, or fuselage. It appeared to be a "flying-swept-wing",approx. the wingspan of a Boeing 737, with a boomerang-shape, moving at approx. the same speed, as civilian prop-driven aircraft, that is typically seen, at that altitude. As it moved away from me, to the north, I noticed a circular- cluster of s! tationary white lights, in the middle of the rear of the object. I could hear no engine noise, as it departed my sight, over a mountain. Also, I am a subscriber to an online flight-tracking service. I immediately checked that website, on my phone, and it showed NO air-traffic, anywhere near that area. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Foley, AL
While walking my dog, I always watch the sky when I hear a jet as we live so close to Pensacola NAS to see if the Blue Angels are around. I did not see any in the area, but an extremely high object caught my eye. I can't be positive of the shape due to the height it was flying but it traveled approximately 1 foot in sight then slowed to almost a stop, did a 360 degree turn (in a space about the size of my fingernail) and took off at approximately 3x the speed it was traveling and disappeared into the clouds. The object was heading West to East and finally headed Southwest. I have never seen any jet perform a 360 degree turn in this small of space and at that height. Object was white in color and the weather was sunny with feathery clouds. If I had to guess at the height, I would say it was 40,000 to 50,000 feet.

Albuquerque, NM
According to the primary observer on the ground, who has 20/15 vision, the object seemed to be black and bulbous, like a group of black balloons, emitting off-white smoke as it changed shape. The object was moving extremely fast, west to east, when compared to a high-flying jet. As the object passed directly overhead, a private jet with two green lights was observed to be travelling northwest above it. The second person on the roof of the house, with less than perfect vision, observed more of a black chevron shaped object.

I recently saw a video on the internet about the black jellyfish ufos and I realized I may have seen one too. It was a hot cloudless day and I was working in the yard when I noticed a dark streak moving horizontally across the sky. I was alarmed because I thought maybe it was an airplane that was on fire and leaving a smoke trail. I watched it for a couple minutes until the trees blocked my line of sight. It was very far away and I could not make out anything but a black streak moving very slowly. I noticed it was retaining the same length as it moved horizontally across the sky, if it was smoke it would leave some sort of trail and if it was a plane on fire it would probably be falling down from the sky. Many airplanes fly over our property on their path to the fargo airport so I am used to seeing and hearing airplanes, this was no airplane and there was no sound. I told my husband and we listened to the local news to see if it was a plane crash, but there was nothing reported.

A red UFO mimic jet #741 close call crisscrosses X with another silver UFO mimic jet right over my house a few thousand feet up. With binoculars it looked like the red mimic was the lower object in altitude. Both were silent, and the silver mimic had a 100 foot chemtrail. The red did not. GPS: Bellaire St. and Palm Beach Blvd. Nine total on the day. 16,110 total since 2008. The engines on the red UFO mimic were not as large as the ones in the picture I'm sending. Light shade of gray on the under-wings. We are uncertain as to whether this is intended as a serious report. PD

Columbia, MO
We were sitting in front of Noodles and Company at Trimble and Conley Roads enjoying an ice cream when I noticed something very low in the sky approaching us from the south. I got my phone out and took three pictures through the open window. What had originally called my attention to the sky turned out to be a helicopter although we were close enough to hear sound we heard none. (A friend has a software program to analyze photos and could see, with about 90% certainty, that the original object was a helicopter.) But above the traffic light standard there appeared another object. This one was a square. It had no heat signature, wings or rotors. I don't believe I actually saw it with my eyes, but discovered it on the pictures. This is the second time we have seen objects flying over this area. (See my two reports on NUFORC dated 4/20/2017.) We express our gratitude to Barb Becker, MO Investigators Group, for submitting the report. PD

Milan (Italy) · Italy
Hello, i'm ((man's name deleted))., 21, i'm a night worker in the city of Milan. I was lying on the bed at night after i've got a night of work 3 hours before and i was just getting ready for sleep. I've got a great ability to do OBEs and while i was starting dreaming like it always did, everything around me paralyzed. While i was realizing that was not a sleep paralysis i started hearing a strange whistle/white-noise and a sensation of circle spinning and pressure decrease, after all of this a voice, like there were somebody talking in front of me, in my native language, was speaking to me. After a while i've seen it's face and it was like a grey but it's eye's were more dark green I was so afraid that could happen something to me, try to harm me however this figure was curious about me i guess, we had a chat but i don't remember what we talked about, I'm shocked about how time could paralyze. I would really like to talk to somebody, please. ((name deleted))

Mulino, OR
Two odd lights in the sky to the south caught my eye as i walked outside to let dogs out. I called my husband out and we watched as the higher one started moving towards us. The next one started moving after, they moved very slowly almost no sound, as they got closer and moved directly overhead, the light configuration and shape was very unusual. Both has lots of lights, different colors, in a pattern on what looked to be the main body and had 2 smaller sections below and off to each side that had lights moving along the length of the sections. They were extremely low still almost no sound, and were large, C-130-sized, or larger, it appeared to us. They moved slowly overhead to the north and over our forest, we lost sight of them over our tree lines quickly because they were so low. Saw 2 similar lighted craft hovering in the sky afterwards right after those 2. Cell phone video photos would not work on any phone during the event, worked fine prior and after.

Grand Rapids, MI
It was around 2:00 AM- 2:30 AM on July 11, 2018 in Grand Rapids, we were driving home from a get together in the Rockford area, we got lost and took a common road home called 52nd Street and as we were driving in the countryside, I look to my right in the passenger seat and I see about 100 feet to 150 feet away from me a large Manta-Ray shaped object frozen in the air on a 45 degree slant, the front of the object was white colored and had a ring surrounding the aircraft that had a green light circling through the ring, I began to naturally freak out as we drive past this large aircraft. As we continued driving, the bottom of the aircraft was exposed with these bright white lights formed in this symmetrical pyramid pattern with about 7 large lights, instantly I tried to debunk the situation using the laws of physics but the object appeared frozen in time over this grassy area, an by that time I knew that this object is way too technologically advanced to be developed by the government, it was like it was using a Anti-Gravity mechanism that allowed to sit perfectly frozen in mid air on this 45 degree slant, I thought I was possibly hallucinating the whole situation but after calming down and rubbing my eyes and reopening them, the object was still in the same perfect 45 degree slant in midair, I wouldn’t be reporting this if I didn’t see this object so close, I’ve seen videos and documentaries about these sightings but there was never one photo or video showing a object this close to human activity.
