Long Barn, CA
While standing on my deck in the back country with my 2 sons and a friend my oldest son was looking up at the pine trees blowing when he said what the hell. We all looked up and there was 3 circled objects about 10 thousand ft I’m guessing in a triangle not moving at all. Watched them and tried get cell phone pics but to high. They stayed there for about an hour and a half. So we kept looking up to see if they would move but they never did. One time we looked up after a while and they were gone. It was a great experience. But don’t have a clue what they were.

First, I am a nature lover. I have been seeing strange objects in the sky since June 27. On July 20 at 10:37, I came out of my house to smoke a cigarette and I looked at the sky in front and I saw two: circles of light with a light in the middle that turned on and off. one moved towards New York and the other to the left. Then the one at the left moved towards my street, I stood just under the canopy of my building and looked up and it threw a silver light to me. I entered the building quicky and my body was shaking, I do not know how I went up the stairs. I was petrified and it took me a long time to fall sleep.

Drove to the Sierra Nevada foothills around sun set to get some pictures of the comet. Just after dark set in we noticed a satellite object traveling over head. It appeared to have an unsteady flight. Wavering and slowing. It came to a stop. My sister was able to get 3 pictures of the object. All 3 pictures had a different appearance. On 2 of the pictures, the object appears to have a hole in it. The third picture has structure to it.I guess it could be a satellite, but I do not know of a satellite that would come to a complete stop. I will include the 3 photo's for your examination.

I was sitting on my patio on Saturday July 18th about 11:00 pm when I saw an orange object fly from the south north towards Lake Erie. The orange light dimmed then disappeared. When it dimmed two more orange objects followed in the same direction and disappeared. When those lights dimmed three more orange objects flew in the same direction and disappeared. Then two more orange objects appeared and flew in the same direction and disappeared. When they disappeared another orange object followed and disappeared. Altogether there were 9 orange objects. The show lasted approximately 10 minutes. I would have loved to film them but my phone was in my purse in my office and I did not want to try to retrieve it. The objects looked to be a small cone shape.

At approximately 17:00 Hrs. on Saturday July 18, 2020 Spotted a bright object hovering nearly directly overhead at Latitude 037 deg. 19' 34.0062 N, Longitude -120 deg.-28' -49.7484 W. Looked at object with Binoculars and it appeared to be a bright ring of light. Called a family member who is approximately 4 miles away at Latitude 037deg. 19' 52.0422 N , Longitude -120 deg. -28 -44.5434 W. He also looked at the objected with binoculars and identified it as having a bright ring. The object remained in place as the sun and began to dim as the sun approached the horizon. As the object dimmed I began to see a bright flashing white light in the center of the ring. At about 5 minutes after sunset the ring had completely faded away and the flashing light was no longer visible.

Bridge Lake, Lone Butte (Canada), BC · Canada
July 17-20, 2020, Lone Butte, BC: (after 11:55 pm) Myself and 6 friends were staying at a cabin up in Bridge Lake in Lone Butte Canada from July 17-20 and witnessed lights in the sky of different sizes and brightness and colours every night after 11:55 pm. We saw some divide from one light into three, hover and fly off. At one point two crossed paths hovered and continued in different directions, most of the sightings occurred crossing past the Milky Way or that general viewpoint. From our vantage point it seemed like they were the same size as the stars and very far above us and would cross the entire skyline moving in fast jerky movements, stopping and or shooting off at a fast pace. We managed to capture one on a cell phone, all you can see is a tiny dot moving across the screen and even though there was a full sky of stars the phone camera only shows the light which we though was strange even at the time. Here’s the video we got of a smaller one, we are convinced they were not bugs or satellites. Would love to know if anyone else saw anything that weekend. We enjoyed all the moments and it will remain a magical memory for all of us.

Saw two or three objects high in sky while walking and they just disappeared. Shortly after saw a large glowing light hovering over pillar point, in the south sky. Object was quite large and similar to that of the sun in appearance. It would glow orange then not glow and a second object appeared and did same. This lasted about 45 min. Then both just took off without any sound and were out of sight in less than a second. Photos were taken. One thru binoculars.

I see movement in the sky on a daily . Almost every night. I have a old phone crappy camera but I finally got the unknown craft that I've seen come to my property and watches hovering over my house , . Somedays it comes lighting speed hovers right above me. It's almost like I know they gonna come be present. One of the times hovers just right above my roof, I got my dad to come see and instantly it shoots straight up in the sky no lights no sound and I see it there hiding in a cloud ( I have binoculars). My dad goes back inside. And within one second it shoots straight back at and it dims 3 solid no blinking red lights . But it hovers over me and it hits me with 1 extremely bright flash . Almost like it just took a picture of me. And its close above a one story house .one time I caught literally hiding on the very top of my tree in my backyard flashes at me like 4 times and totally invisible I see it on the opposite direction way far away not even in lik! e a second . But last night it came over to me same craft it came n go couple of times till I saw up to 4 or 5 type of jet planes all over the sky I have never seen so many planes come out of know where and it shoots out out of my sight within seconds. And of course hovers literally right over me maybe lil over 20 feet up and shoots me with a bright flash .blinding then it leaves when planes arrive I dont even know from where they came so fast.

Westland, MI
First spotted one at 10:30 pm, circular,lights around,top lights big,looking like glowing eyes, with a longer strait ship following behind. It sat mid air,no sound for 25 min before slowly moving foward. It spun on it's axis occasionally. At 4 am I went out to smoke, seen 3 craft, put on shoes and walked 6 blocks to 711, counted over 30 at various points in sky. Some close,some way up,it was a clear night,also some smaller oval shaped craft, I could look right up and see, clarity in sky was perfect. Next day,bout 7 pm, I seen one behind some cloud cover. That evening,circular craft, but counted like 12 to 15. Last night seen about 5 ,but they were further off, only one closer to the point could be seen clearly. The 4am walk,I called pd, airport PD,news, border patrol,. I showed a Westland PD officer, he and several others said it was a plane,but it never moved and finally turned showing circular shape. No one knew what it was.

My sister, age 55, my son, age 30, myself, age 62 and my husband, age 66, saw the object moving in the low sky coming from the southeast moving north. It was a round ball, bigger than the object my husband and I saw 2 nights ago. It had a very bright center and a glowing reddish light surrounding the object. No trail was left. It moved slowly enough in a straight line that I could go inside and the house to get my binoculars. It was moving north and seemed to be ascending into the sky getting smaller. Then, it vanished.

Mayfield, NY
My wife, mother in law, and two friends were on my pontoon boat on the Great Sacandaga Lake in Mayfield, New York. It was 20:00 on 7/15/20 and we were anchored just off Beacon island on the south end of the lake. My mother in law said, “What is that in the sky?” Just seconds after discussion of the comet that was supposed to be visible that night. We all looked up and saw a white cylindrical object high in the sky. I am a private pilot and I would estimate the object to be around 20,000ft to 30,000ft or possibly even higher in the sky. It appeared to be above the cirrus clouds. The sky was blue except for a few clouds. The object did not move at all and stayed in the same exact spot for about thirty minutes. It was eventually obstructed by cirrus clouds as they moved under the object. We attempted to take photos of the object but none of the photos came out clear enough. I wondered if it was a star or planet, however the sun was not set yet and there! were no other objects or stars anywhere else in the sky. This object looked very much out of place. I questioned if it was a weather balloon but like I stated above, the object never moved from this spot. It never appeared larger or smaller as if it was ascending or descending. It stayed completely still and the size did not appear to change. It was white in color, assuming it was reflecting sunlight and we were unable to properly identify the color. Several hours later, my friend sent me a screenshot of the object that someone took in Johnstown, NY. About 15 minutes south of our position. This picture was much more clear than our blurry photos and the object looked more like and unidentified flying object. Not just a weather balloon. This object did not make any noise. All photos will be sent via email. The photos took from my boat were taken at 20:03. I do not have a time the photos were taken from Johnstown, however is was roughly the same timeframe.

I was sitting alone outside watching tv on my Samsung Galaxy Tab A. By some random chance I saw what looked like a tiny black dot moving in and out of some clouds. It moved relatively slowly from what my compass shows as 157.2 degrees to 347.5 degrees through the sky. There was no sound from the craft. I quickly switched on my video function on the tablet. In the background I think you can hear an airplane in the distance. This is very common where I live - there are always planes flying over our housing plan. I thought it was odd for a craft to be flying so high when there are airplanes close by on a regular basis. After watching the video I took and zooming in on the round craft, I dismissed it in my mind as probably a drone. However, due to the craft being so high and going through clouds, it might be of some interest and be considered unidentified. The "black dot" did not seem to change shape and was flying at a steady rate of speed. ! I lost sight of the craft when it flew over my house.

Last night 2 of us were laying on a blanket under the stars, the sky was so clear, we first saw a few sporadic shooting stars then all of a sudden there was what seemed like one, but it was so bright! It lasted way longer than any shooting star and the top of the thing was long and slender and burning so bright it looked almost blue with a reddish tail. So magnificent! Immediately after that there were several (at least 6) craft of some kind that looked exactly like stars and had been stationary up to that point that in unison, from different places that scattered away from that area. There are always these lights in the sky that have a steady light, nothing blinking and with no sound, that look exactly like stars, same size, same color, everything, but last night it's like they all wanted to get away from whatever had just happened. Something appeared to fall off the shooting, glowing object, it seemed like some kind of malfunction instead of a shooting star. From nowhere I see an airplane leaving the area as well. I've never witnessed anything like that and I'm always looking at the sky. After that, the sky was so alive, there were those lil things moving all about and blinking lights, twinkling stars, just so much movement. My dog was barking like crazy, the way he does when someone strange comes around. I'd love to know what was going on. I'm so glad I was able to witness it with someone else! Wow!

I was using a high powered flash light to shine on my woods when I accidentally pointed it at the sky. Within a second a very big circular object in the sky, slowly moving from East to west shined a very bright orange light back at me. When the light went out, it slowly dimmed. This is when I got the attention of my friend. I did it again and the object replied again. We did this back and forth for approximately 5 minutes. I was able to catch two flashes on video. The object never made a sound and was very high in altitude. No other lights present on the craft. Just after we lost sight of the craft, my dog began the growl into the woods. We heard a large animal moving around in the woods but could not find it with a flashlight. This very well could have been any of the hundred animals that live in the woods here. However, it made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.

7 of us were out on the driveway ,our contractor looked up into the sky not quite directly overhead and spotted a round doughnut shaped object . It wasn't moving . It was an orange/yellow color which we figured was probably a reflection from the sun setting. I live near the beach . We got the binoculars and we were all able to see it clearly...there was a distinct hole in the middle. The inversion layer clouds were starting to roll in ..so after about 5 minutes of clear view with and without the binoculars, it wasn't able to be seen.

I felt something watching me and I looked out the window of my balcony and noticed a very bright star. It was foggy outside so i was curious how the light was so bright. I then pulled my phone out and started recording and also noticed an airplane with red blinking lights hovering next to it. Almost like it was supervising the UFO. I continued to record and the focus on my camera kept going in and out. I saw a disc shape circle. Hovering idle in the sky.

I live on top of a big hill in our town, and you can see pretty far in all directions. II went outside at around 11:00 PM because I thought I heard our cat scratching at the door. When I went out onto our front porch, I noticed that the sky was extremely clear, as we live in a rural area. I saw this “star” from a little ways away, and noticed that it was moving . I assumed it was a plane. It was coming straight towards my house. I called my 11 year old son to come outside and watch it with me. When it flew directly over top of my house, I realized it was not a plane. It was very very low, about as low as people normally fly a drone, but there was NO noise. It was dead silent. It was the exact shape, color, and size as a star, but it was moving at a very steady speed, in a completely straight line, and WAY lower. We could not figure out what it was. Our neighbor has a drone, and they are very loud and go all over the place, up or down. I have never witnessed an! ything like this thing before in my life. It was almost like it was on some sort of autopilot. We watched it for as long as we could, and it continued in a perfect straight line, at a consistent speed. Now my son and I are a little disturbed and can’t go to sleep!
