After traveling for approximately one minute in a continuous motion and direction, the craft seemed to stop and hover for several minutes. The craft continues to move in short jagged and also circular motions, staying within a certain space and performing maneuvers at a slow rate, but unlike any craft I have ever seen. At first I thought it was a helicopter, but then realized it was far too high in the sky and would not stay in such a tight flight pattern for as long as it has. To my knowledge, I have never seen a UFO, but believe this to be my first sighting.

I was walking my dog. No wind. Clear skies. No clouds. No haze. No marine layers. No fog. Very clear skies with unusually bright stars. Very little white noise from the city lights. I happen to look skyward and saw a shape as if a upside down ice cream cone shape. The object glowed in a very strange array of colors. Picture a upside down ice cream cone. It fell from the sky at a perfect straight downward entry. The colors were strange. First green as if the first scoop of ice cream entering earth. Then a scoop of brilliant red followed by blue. The cone part was brilliant purple. The purple part was the same length as the first 3 colors if measured together. Strange but true! I am a Registered Nurse and since seeing this, my normal heart rate has gone from a 72 to over a 100 beats per minute. I know according to physics that if it was debris or a falling object the color array would be different. This truly is so very strange.

I was going to bed at midnight and noticed 4 lights, as I was looking south out my bedroom window. The 4 lights were a distance away but were stationary across the sky, symmetrically apart, from east to west at the same height. They were definitely not stars. I also saw planes in the air, but these 4 lights had no movement and no flashing airplane lights. I also noticed an aircraft in the air that I assumed was a helicopter sitting at a distance, as it was not moving (was stationary) with the usual flashing light. I noticed all 4 lights went from a dot to a vertical line that had multiple colors in the light...almost rainbow. As they turned into "lines of light" there was no change in altitude with the lights. I woke my wife as I wanted someone else to see what I was seeing. I decided to get my binoculars after a few minutes and when I returned, the lights had moved. I believe I could see one yet farther away and when I looked in the binoculars, it seemed to be shaped like a waffle cone with the light as where the ice cream would be on the cone. It was too far away to 100% know for sure. The skies seemed normal after that. It seemed like a lot of extra planes were in the air when I saw the lights.

It appeared out of no where about 100ft up and it moved slowly, panning its red light back and forth, then shut its light out. No sound

Saw missile like launch of 2 objects. Looked like missiles. Hung in the sky for a long time before night fall. Low on sunset horizon. Watched it and then took sight of aircraft at same time. Either this was a coincidence or the missile was an aircraft that then flew east. Used high power binoculars until losing sight of craft over east horizon. Weird.

I have seen UFO's before; such as a dim moving "star" that would glow bright red and cause other stars to all but disappear. I, however, never felt the need to report it, since I didn't have much of a description besides what I wrote in the sentence above and it didn't really look all that exciting either. That all changed the night before last night. Me and a friend of mine were walking to the local gas station to buy some cigarettes, as I was looking towards my friend my eyes were drawn towards the night sky by the most surreal/gorgeous thing I have ever seen. It had white (hot?) ball that was leading the descent and that ball was surrounded in a green light -Im not sure what an aura is but thats how I always pictured one-that extended backwards into the bright green (and very long…at least 10X the diameter of the white ball/rock) tail. I actually got a little lightheaded from seeing something so cartoonish shoved into my reality. It looked like a moving painting with how bright and vivid it was against the night sky. The smoke trail was still visible cutting infront of the moon. Here are some reasons why it seemed strange to me: - It was so jaw droppingly surreal and incredibly larger than the meteors/comets that I would see on youtube - There was not a single sound, although it looked so big that I expected it had hit somewhere close by, but I can't even find other sightings let alone an impact. There was no flaring up of what I assume were the green flames, instead it maintained a uniform color/burn during the couple of seconds it was in my view. I don't know if answers are given here, but if there's anyway someone know what that was or has seen something like that please let me know. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Hello, Thank you for replying so promptly. It could have been anything since this is the first thing of its kind that Ive ever seen. But I will say that that I spent a significant amount of time between then and now trying to find a picture or video similar to what I saw. I found green fireballs and green meteors but the ones i saw all seemed to have yellow or orange flames at the tip of the tail or even along the entire tail. This one's tail was glowing green and is the part that caught my eye the most. I'm really interested to know if its normal that meteors can appear to be so close and vivid yet make no sound? Are there any resources that you would know of besides this website to find out who else has seen this in the area so I could try to find a photo, I already miss the view. Thank you, ((name deleted)) ((END ADDENDUM))

I was driving home north of Chico, out passed Richardson Springs when I saw bright cone shaped beams of clear/white light. Extremely bright. I arrived home then went out side and starred in that direction, I continued to see it flash at random for about an hour. Sometimes in different locations.

The object was moving North to South and was finally lost to sight as it passed large trees that were between me and it. I went outside during the event to see if I could here any engine sound, but heard nothing.

IT WAS A FOGGY LIGHT WITH A CONE SHAPE FLOATING ACROSS THE SKY LIKE A SATELLITE. IT WAS HEADING NORTH. ((NOTE FROM MR. TED MOLCZAN)) Hello Peter, Your hunch probably is correct. The Sentinel 2A satellite was launched on a Vega rocket from the Guiana Space Center, last night at 9:52 PM EDT (Jun 23 01:52 UTC). Coverage of the launch was here: http://spaceflightnow.com/2015/06/22/vv05-mission-status-center/ SeeSat-L received several reports of sightings near 23:49 EDT (3:49 UTC), of what appears to have been exhaust from the final burn of the Vega rocket's AVUM liquid fueled upper stage. That burn lowered the perigee to ensure that the object decays from orbit within a reasonable time, in order to curb the growth of space debris. http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0193.html http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0194.html http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0195.html http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0198.html http://satobs.org/seesat/Jun-2015/0199.html Marco Langbroek blogged his analysis: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.nl/2015/06/aurora-hunter-images-last-moments-of.html Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. Best regards, Ted ((END NOTE)) Possible spent rocket. PD

I went out back on the deck to get some fresh air after an argument with my wife and saw a black plane, I could hear it that's what caused me to look up, I have 20/20 vision very high def I saw what appeared to be a spy or recon plane at around 10-20,000 Ft. Watched it for about 45 seconds then it disappeared into the clouds. No markings just jet black, with no tail and was wing shaped I actually thought it was a hawk at first but definitely was an object. I would have grabbed another witness but I was in temporary shock I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I wasn't going to tell anyone since this sighting I was the only witness but I ended up telling and reporting it anyway. My wife is Airforce it could be a security issue so I am reporting the incident.

While I was lying on the couch, just getting ready to get up, I saw a grey cone shaped UFO out of the large living room window. I had said out loud whaaat what was that as I was looking out the window at it. My husband was sitting on the stool next to me and I said get up get up and look out the window. He quickly got up and I told him to look to the right (which is to the west that was the direction it was going) unfortunately it was gone. It had no sound and no lights. I have a broken back so he can move much faster then me. I couldn't believe it was gone. I couldn't believe I actually saw a UFO. I have been stuck on the couch for one and a half years due to multiple broken back bones and I had just mentioned to my husband jokingly that I should be seeing a UFO any time now.I didn't realize how many sightings there are until now. WOW!! My husband said that he new something was up by the tone of my voice and the look on my face. I always knew they were out there. People need to wake up with this and everything that's going on with the weather, all the wars and new and old illnesses all being so prevalent. God Bless and love to all. Witness indicates that the date is approximate. PD

Hanover, PA
Around 0815 a.m. on March 13, 2015, spotted unusual and unfamiliar looking object in distant sky south southwest of Hanover, PA, possibly around PA/MD line. Appeared to be one to two thousand feet above ground. As soon as I saw the object, I thought that it was different from anything that I had ever seen before. Called others to witness object. One witness thought it was an incoming helicopter since we were viewing it from a hospital with a heliport. However, it failed to grow larger or move significantly over the approximate 10 minutes that we continued to observe it as an approaching helicopter would have and it eventually just disappeared from sight. No lights observed. Other witness thought it looked like a balloon but, again, it did not move for around 10 minutes of viewing with wind speed 3 to 13 mph at ground level. Did not really look like a hot-air balloon to me and I used to live in an area where hot-air ballooning was popular and it appeared to be way too high to be tethered. Sighted this while at work so it became necessary to leave and when I returned after approximately 5 minutes the object was gone. Hard to define exact shape, due to considerable distance. If I had to describe the shape I’d say dome shaped on top, less curved on bottom but not flat with more of a vertical than horizontal displacement. Kind of cone shaped I guess. Honestly, from that distance it did not look unlike a weather balloon but, again, it remained essentially stationary in the sky for over 5 minutes and was probably too big to be a weather balloon.

My wife and I saw a large burning/orange glowing object south west of Boise. The object was moving right to left for 5 to 7 minutes finally going over southern horizon. The object was observed to be a glowing red/orange in color. There were no blinking light on the object. We believe it's a short contrail behind a high-altitude aircraft. PD
