Loveland, CO
I live close to downtown Loveland and was standing on my front porch looking to the Southwest. I saw what at first looked like the white light of an airplane behind clouds. Then I realized that it was moving too slow for an airplane and I could otherwise see stars. This light traveled slowly across the sky from west to east and was shrouded in a fog of some type. That part of the event lasted about 5 to 6 minutes. Then as the light was over the downtown area, directly to the South of me, I noticed that it turned on a light from the rear side (I say rear because it was opposite of the direction it was traveling in). Very bright, strong, v-shaped light beam. Since it was much closer to me at that point and because it turned on a light, I was able to see the air disturbance. The fog was almost phosphorescent, also flaring out in a dramatic v-shape. Then all of it just kind of became indistinct (turned its lights down?) and disappeared completely. The fog it left in its wake became distorted and from the pattern of the fog (there was a stream going downward) either the craft went down toward Earth or shot straight up. Then at 8:08pm, with still no substantial cloud build-up, there was a sudden flash of light. At this point I was standing on my back patio, which faces East. The kicker is, I texted a friend who lives over by the foothills (about 11 miles west of me) and they had seen the craft as well. Her neighbor was outside on her porch and had also seen what she thought was the flare of fireworks at the time I saw the ‘lightning’ flash. Space X booster venting fuel?? PD

Spring Creek, NV
I saw 1 object heading southeast. It looked like a comet but was moving rapidly. The "tail" looked like an extra fluffy contrail that glowed faintly blue. The "head" was slightly brighter. I didn't hear any sound associated with it. Possible result of launch of Space X rocket from Cape Kennedy? PD

Bowling Green, KY
Please understand that this amazing story is true and not a figment of my imagination. I live in Bowling Green, Kentucky, in a very old and historic neighborhood in the city. I have seen and heard many paranormal things throughout my impossible lifetime, but this one was different. The time was approximately 2:30 AM in the early morning and I suddenly woke up and saw a very strange thing. There was a short human man walking down my hallway, with a large big-headed Alien entity! I know it sounds crazy, but I know what I saw! I couldn't believe it at first! This being was very tall, close to 9 feet tall, and it's head was large and massive. I could only see the entity from behind, but I will never forget it's head being so big. The ET's arms and legs were very small, like looking at sticks. I tried to communicate with this thing with no luck. The ET and the short man just went on walking down my hallway and seemed to walk through the wall. I was fully awake at the time, and it was no dream. I have seen many things in this haunted house I live in, but never an Alien! Where it cam from I do not know, but I have seen many UFO's in my lifetime. A true Story! JLG

Inflight (Detroit/Baltimore; between), -
The time is approximate. Flying from Detroit to Baltimore. Looking out my window and I suddenly see a silver shiny missile looking object coming right at us. In fact my first thought was that it was a missile and an “Oh shit!” came out of my mouth. When it got closer it suddenly turned up and to the right and flew away from us in a diagonal direction. It happened so fast my brain processed it as a near miss with another plane. But there were never any reports about it. And how could another plane turn away and miss us that fast? I’ve thought about it over the years as something that didn’t make a lot of sense. Until I recently saw a story about a “missile looking” UFO with a shiny silver tip sighting Then it clicked. That’s what I saw that day. I was never a believer in UFO’s. However I know what I saw. And I do believe now it may have been an actual UFO sighting.

Sahuarita, AZ
Driving down a road, I turned towards the driver of the car to say something, as I was in the passenger seat. I jokingly said that tonight is a perfect night to see a ufo, the driver didn’t believe in ufos. As I turned back to look out the window, we saw a white light in the sky, we thought it was a plane. I made another snark comment and as I was saying this, more lights showed up next to the original light, it stayed in place. There was one light on either side of the original light and both lights were blinking but not the middle light. I asked the driver and the person in the backseat if they saw what I was seeing. They said yes and stopped the car. All of a sudden, more lights showed up and they stopped blinking. You could see the outline of the craft, a circular shape but it blended in with the evening sky, it was almost invisible as you could say but the lights (about 8 of them) and the outline was all you could see. It all happened so fast too, as soon as it was there it was gone and now the skeptics that were in the car now believe. I wish I could see it again it was amazing! Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Queen Creek, AZ
I was driving home sometime between 6:30 pm and 7:30 pm local time. My step father was on the phone in the passenger seat, my step aunt was in the backseat, passenger-side. We were heading East while I was driving and several lights come to my attention at about my 11 o’clock position and approximately 15-20 degrees above the horizon. I witnessed a weird formation of lights I have not witnessed before. The duration of the lights was brief, maybe 2-4 seconds duration in total. But it was the formation that stood out to me, it was like a WV, W\, or possibly a M/\, or M/. But it appeared that it was either 1 craft or a tightly-formed flying fleet. The thing that I remember is typically when I view the Cassiopeia constellation, it’s in the ‘W’ formation from my reference and during the brief encounter I had, it seemed like it was a ‘WV’ formation with the lights (it was in that same W formation, but with a few more lights, I was tempted to select the Chevron shape for this report, but that would indicate I saw multiple crafts). I recall it being similar in the form of the Cassiopeia constellation, but the lights were as bright as incoming planes. Initially I thought they were incoming planes, but the fact that I saw 1 of the lights dim and then disappear, while the others quickly followed in-sync with each other; this made me want to find out if anyone else saw those lights. I do know that there are homes in that direction and the possibility of drones with lights on them could be entirely possible, which would explain their low altitude. But it was a quick encounter with strange lights in a formation, that I can’t explain. Another thing I should add, while it’s fresh in my mind is that the lights appeared to be the same color and the same distance away, though at night I’m sure that’s hard to tell. They had like a regular airplane color, not one of the fancy white/blue colored lights (like a halogen color). Each light also appeared to be symmetrical, in terms of the spacing and angles between each other. It was weird. For some reason, witness indicates that the date above is approximate. PD

Evansville, IN
Four pairs of orbs went W-E in 6 mins then turned SE. Cell phone images or video. Story appeared in local paper and on TV. Jet described as military was taking same path but local radar showed only a commercial jet at 37,000'. These objects traveled 15 mi in 6 mins in 4 prs, so this would be very fast, too fast for jackolanterns which would take 15-20 for each pair. Was investigated by colleague for the MADAR Center at Newburgh.

Scotia, NY
I pulled over. This large object glided in front of me. No sound at all. It looked like a goal post with lights all over it and the under belly was oval and lit up gliding past me. My video does not do justice to what I saw, it's much larger then the video shows. I assume all the bright lights on it caused a poor video. Theres a strange noise on my video that I can't explain where it's coming from. 2 cars pass by, other then that I was alone in silence. Very big object, all lit up, no sound, gliding by me. NOT an airplane!! We spoke via telephone with the witness, and we found here to be sincere, and passionate about her sighting. We have viewed the video, and the object she describes above is not at all apparent to us. We see a small, lighted object, which appears to be an aircraft in flight, with standard red and green navigation lights visible. However, the witness insists that she had seen something else. PD

Gainesville, FL
So it starts when I go home from school. I walk to my car. Feel a bit off. Saw a normal-looking helicopter flying off to the North-East. On my drive, this is what I saw. It was some type of aircraft. It was white, and was hovering around. No trail, no noise. Just kind of slightly descending for a bit. Then in another direction. The movements definitely seemed deliberate, and from the photos I've seen they look nothing like a weather balloon. Normally, I'd probably brush that off. But here's the issue. I cannot describe the shape in one word. It had at least 3-4 "wings" which were different sized spikes, long, and jagged. It looked incredibly bizarre. Nothing like anything I've seen before in my life, especially in the damn sky. I saw it about 4 times within 5 minutes. Each time, it was going in a totally different direction. The last time I saw it, it was very translucent, and it was glowing a pinkish-reddish hue. It really wasn't that high up in the sky; it was high, but low enough that I was able to be pretty damn sure of what I was looking at. After that, I had about 10 more minutes of driving. I saw that same helicopter that I saw earlier going NE, except this time it was going South to South West. Then a minute later I noticed a big black helicopter. It looked like one some type of police force or military would use. It went very fast, I lost sight of it within 10-15 seconds. The final part was when I got home, I parked outside. Looked up in the sky again hoping I'd see the original object I saw. There were about 3-4 very tiny planes. Just white with wings, kind of like a drone considering how small they were. I don't know what to make of that. I did take videos, but my damn camera made it very blurry; cell-phone cameras really are not able to produce clear images of objects 100-500 feet away. They just look mostly like blurry spherical things in the sky for the most part. Can anyone explain what in the world that was? Has anyone seen anything similar? Where should I take this from now?

Thibodaux, LA
The objects could be described as orange splinters that glowed and faded in and out of sight over the course of an hour. At their brightest they appeared to be flickering as if on fire. I know these not to be regular aircrafts as I work in aviation and are familiar with the nature of modern aircraft. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Metairie, LA
The weather was light overcast with spotty clouds. The 2 UFO's I saw were due west and the 1st was approximately 45 degrees straight up from the crescent moon on my horizon about to set. It was orange and vertically oriented looking like the plume of a rocket, but was perfectly still. Its apparent size if holding at arms length was 1.25" high by .25" thick in the middle symmetrically tapering off upward & downward to a point (like a classic saucer oriented vertically but not metallic, it was rocket exhaust like) Within 3 or 4 minutes of seeing the 1st one another slowly faded in above and to the right of the 1st object. It looked exactly the same but not quite as bright. About 2 or 3 minutes later the 2nd object slowly faded out, then about 5 minutes later the original object slowly faded out as well. The whole time both objects were silent and still in the sky and still in respect to each other. I tried taking photo's with my cell phone but they didn't come out. I have lived on the same property all my life and have never witnessed anything like that before.

My daughter texted me a photo of a beam of light she saw over the New Orleans skyline around 10:00 PM this evening, January 27, 2018. She described the beam as the kind of fire-orange. It emerged from the clouds and remained for about 15-20 minutes. During that time, a second beam also appeared nearby. Then they just disappeared. Another friend also saw this and posted about it on social media. I've included his photo as well.

After picking up my kids, I parked the car in the parking lot to get a better look at the planes. This was about 3:12 p.m. The "plane" closest to us looked to be right overhead, and looked white or metallic and very bright. It was spraying a chemtrail and then it ran out of spray and continued flying in a straight line heading back into the blue sky over the school. I thought it looked more like a TUBE than a plane. It also was low enough that I would have expected to hear an engine noise, but it was silent. I looked away for just a few moments to get my camera phone from the car. My 14-year-old daughter, in the meantime, had her phone camera and was snapping shots. When I looked back up at the sky, the "plane" had completely disappeared and was nowhere to be seen in the expanse of the blue sky. It just vanished. With 3 kids in the car, I started to drive home, and on our way, saw several other "planes" in the sky--I counted about 6 of them in the distance, in close proximity to each other, all spraying straight chemtrails. I pulled over to the side of the road to observe them and pointed them out to the kids. I asked my daughter to get shots of the many planes, but she was unable to capture the shot with all of the planes, but she did get the chemtrails in criss-cross patterns. With the kids in the car, and very astonished, I decided to drive around the corner block and return to the point where I could view the planes again. It took us no more than 2 minutes to drive around the block to the same spot. By then, every single plane had completely vanished, just like the other one. This was simply not possible. We caught the photos and now see that the vehicle closest to us did not look like a plane, but a SHINY, METALLIC, TUBE WITH OVAL SEGMENTS IN AN ANT-LIKE SHAPE and there seems to be some kind of black tubing wrapped around the side.

Westwego, LA
Was observing a weird rainbow color near the sun. Took a few pictures. In two pictures show a black shape in the sky. Others show the rainbow spot that moved locations in 3 min time frames. One photo shows a ball of light and a portal looking light around it. Also, an airplaine making a perfect square around the city kept passing near by trying to cover the area with those smoke lines as you can see one of the smoke lines passing through the sun in one picture.

Rolling Hills Estates, CA
I was looking up in the sky while I was waiting for my dog to finish eating. I noticed a light which was pretty high like a star moving Southwest towards San Diego. It was an even light, low constant glow, moving fast for the high altitude it was moving at. I thought maybe it was an aircraft but it had no marker lights flashing. Then, I thought well it was a Satellite, I have seen them before moving straight across the sky, but then it curved out to the sea, and faded out. You don't see aircraft at night unless they have flashing lights and Satellites move in straight lines. I'll keep looking. Thank You

Philadelphia, MS
I was standing in the drive way of my house. I looked up and noticed a jet in the sky with a long trail of smoke coming out the rear. Then I noticed an object about 5 inches in front of it, I'm standing on the ground. It looked like two tic-tacs, one in front of the other, but almost touching. It was traveling southwest. This object appeared higher in altitude than the jet and moving a little faster. It looked light in color, almost white. But once the sun hit it appeared a very shiny silver almost like an led light.

Toledo, OH
Driving on I-80 West outside of Toledo, OH, noticed an object hovering at about 5 times the height of a large communications tower in the dark night sky. It was a dome with a rod emanating out of the top. The rod was about 1/6th the height of the dome portion. At the top of the rod, there were two smaller curved rods pointing in opposite directions. The outside of the dome was brilliantly shiny. The outline of the dome itself was so bright, it almost appeared to be electrified. Inside the dome, the composition appeared to be milky in color and without a defined shape. The whole affair reminded me of something you might observe under a microscope. Four times before in my life, I have seen what I truly believe were UFOs (either from the beyond or perhaps made here). This one, however, I seriously wonder if it was something manmade (communications apparatus?) that I just do not have the knowledge to identify.

Roswell, GA
Always laughed at people who claimed to have seen but now it just got real! My sighting happened in the middle of the afternoon on a cold but clear day. Snow and ice was still on the ground from the light dusting of snow the night before. I had made a short trip to the grocery store to pick up a few items and on my way home I had to cut through a suburban neighborhood in order to avoid a minor traffic accident. I came to a 4 way stop sign in the middle of the neighborhood close to mine and noticed something in the middle of the street slightly to the left floating about 5 feet off the ground. The object was unclear at first until it moved directly in front of my car. At this point It was less than 6 feet from my face almost touching the hood of my car. Its movement was very aquatic like and it seemed to float like a jelly fish. It moved horizontally and vertically twice without tilting or pitching then returned back to center. It moved without effort, it had no propellers, props or blades; it had neither propulsion nor exhaust that I could see. This was not a drone! This looked biological with some type of energy about it. I can see EVERY DETAIL about it now! The entire object was between 8 to 10 inches long and maybe 5 inches wide. It protruded hair like fibers (thicker than hair) that held a type of energy that flowed through each fiber. It looked like a deep sea Jelly Benthocodon but more like a caterpillar. Both the top and the bottom were identical. (Hours of googling pics to no avail!). As it moved the fibers moved in slow motion. Everything seemed to move in slow motion at this point and I felt frozen in time. I was in shock and I couldn’t understand what I was seeing. I kept asking myself “what the hell am I seeing” As I moved to unbuckle my seat-belt it reacted to my movement in the car. Its movement was like a posturing movement of fright of flight. As I begin to open my car door it did a nose dive towards the ground then shot strait up towards the tops of the pine trees between 100 feet & 125 feet in less than 3 seconds. I could see it clear against the blue sky! It moved horizontally with the tree line for about 50 yards then moved straight up until out of sight. It moved out of sight in less than 3 seconds. At no point did it make any noise. Against the sunlight it had a metallic or sliver color about it. I stood in the middle of the street like an idiot yelling “I just saw an Alien”. I walked around the 4 way stop for 10 mins looking for any type of evidence of the encounter but came up empty handed. I looked around hoping someone else witnessed this but I'm sure I looked a little weird from a distance. I returned later that day to see if any surrounding homes had security cameras but no luck. Every day on my way home I cut through the same neighborhood hoping to see my caterpillar/jelly Benthocodon friend but no luck yet. This time I’ll have my phone!

Corpus Christi, TX
Sometimes I go out at different times of the day just to check out the sky for birds or planes and that kind of thing. One night approximately during the winter months of 2018 I noticed at a 45° angle in the southwest sky sometime around 1 AM in the morning and orange red colored wheel looking craft in the sky with white craft coming in and out. To the right of that we’ll appeared to be a red to gold colored rectangular outlined part of the sky where those craft appeared to be at war with each other. There were no lasers or explosions or anything like that. There was no sound. I had no camera that could capture any of this but many times I have my binoculars with me and I used those to get a better look. I was standing in the driveway of my home and really felt I couldn’t move or leave what I was seeing because it was so unbelievable. I felt for sure that something really crazy was going on in the sky and thousands of people had to be seeing the same thing I was seeing. But, the next day when I checked online and on television there were absolutely no reports of anything concerning this incident. I absolutely know what I saw and if anyone had seen what I had seen they would have been thinking an invasion was happening and a war was happening in the nighttime sky. I am a journalist and I don’t make up things like this. I did not report this to the site for some four years now because I saw similar lighting in a story online about some movement of lights that was captured by I believe someone in North Carolina. It seemed to jog my memory because for some reason I seemed to have put it out of my mind. So there is a possibility that there is some type of loss of time during the time I was witnessing this in the sky.
