Clarksburg, WV
Was walking up Washington Ave., when I saw a bright solid orange light. I thought it was a new street light because it wasn't moving until it slowly started moving right. My friend, his girlfriend and I stopped and began watching it as it sped up, before stopping again after moving from my 12 to 4. That's when I noticed it wasn't 1 light but 3 long lights. Then as it began moving again, I noticed a second one off in the distance. These objects where probably at around 8000 ft if I was to guess. It didn't make any soumd. Whatever it was seemed large, and moved a lot like a similar object I seen around 2009. I have seen something similar 3 times within 1 mile of each other. All orange, but until I saw this one I never noticed the three bars of light and always thought they where 1 light. In the past 10 years, the feds have been buying up a lot of land around here too. And there is a Lockheed Martin factory close too. I seriously think something weird is going on in north centeral WV. There are places where you can see large air shafts coming out the ground, but there hasn't ever been word on what they are doing. I hope you can dig more up on this because no one else seems to care.

This is a string of events but I'll be referencing to the latest 'sighting' since it is the most recent, and memorable. As it happened a few minutes ago. Also the reason I'm writing this. Because I had an uncanny thing happen that made me think twice. I'd still explain the first sighting I saw which happened around 15 January 2016, 20:00~ And is probably the most special one, apart from my own experience with the latest sighting. I went outside to get some water from the car. I have bottles of water stored in the car. When I need to get some bottles I simply walk to the car. It stays cold that way and I don't have to bring them inside, heat them up unnecessary refrigerate them again ect. When I wanted to open the backside of the car I took a second to look into the sky and I saw so many stars. The longer I looked the more stars I could see. This is an unfamiliar sight to me. But the sky was very clear this day. At this moment I suddenly saw something moving in the sky, it had a bright white and red flashing light to it. A plane I first thought, obviously. However it was on a very strange attitude. It seemed much lower than a normal aircraft. It was hard for me to pin down mentally at that moment at what kind of attitude it was flying. There was just something uncanny about it. I can't quite put it to words what it was. At this moment, which was maybe 10 seconds after I had initially looked into the sky I noticed another 'thing' in the sky. It was exactly the same just at a different location in the sky. They were flying towards each other and I kept looking cause I thought they would collide. They seemed to fly past each other though. After that I saw another one, and then another one, and another one. I saw at least 5, across the sky. Before I stopped looking. They seemed to be flying symmetrical of each other. And all moved at a constant speed. Although I was confused about what I saw, I didn't think too much of it. 3 Days later I was laying on my bed watching a movie. In the corner of my eyes I can see my window. (In the attic) It was around 3AM when a very bright light caught my eye. I instantly recognized it from my earlier encounter. I walked over to the window to look at it. This time I could see much clearer what I saw. It was much closer. (I've been here for years and I've never seen a plane or flying object like this before) It was flying on a very low attitude compared to air planes. However there was no sound to be heard at all. It was flying in a straight line and kept going until it would disappear in the horizon. There was only one that I could see at this time. Now what makes me write this report is because something really weird happened while I was watching it fly away into the horizon; it suddenly moved mid air like a gyroscope. This really send chills trough my spine because at this point I realised I've either gone crazy or seen something that to me is definitely a unidentifiable flying object. A description of how it looked is as followed: It had a constant dull red light at the back side. (Back side being the opposite direction it was moving towards). A red strobing bright light at the front. And 2 or 3 bright white flickering/strobing lights at the back. Do note that these lights also were very uncanny. Very bright. While writing this I've seen it fly by another few times on the same path around 3 times, within an hour. I'm not claiming I saw something extra terrestrial or something. Or anything special at all. I just can't explain what I saw that's all I know. Perhaps they were drones from the local government scanning the area, or whatever. I don't know. But someone linked me to this page so that's why I'm writing this. If this turned out to be something obvious explainable to you, that's fine. like a new airliner trajectory or something. I'm not here for any drama. I just want to know what it is. PS: I checked animals responded because for some reasons all the birds in a local park started screaming a few times this night. This happens when they are disturbed. I know because sometimes I light fireworks there and the same thing happens. Not saying it is related, but just letting you know. Also a weird strange humming sound in the sky the last few days. Across the country actually. But when I saw the thing I didn't hear nothing. Still letting you know though.

ON JAN 14TH, 2015, AROUND 9.30PM, I SAW A BIG LIGHT (STREET LIGHT SODIUM VAPOUR LAMP LIKE LIGHT) MOVING IN THE SKY. IT WAS MOVING SLOWLY, FROM EAST TOWARDS WEST. AS IT'S GOING ON, ITS SIZE BECOME BIG AND THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE LIGHT BECOME LESS. THE SHAPE ALMOST LOOKS LIKE A ROUND TO TRIANGLE SHAPE. I WAS SURPRISED, AND I SAW TO MY FRIEND ALSO. LIKE ON 17TH JAN, 2015, AT 9.15 PM, AGAIN MY WIFE SAW AND SHE CALLED ME AND IT WAS THE SAME SIZE, BUT THIS TIME ITS LOOKS ROUND ON MOVING TOWARDS WEST AND THE BRIGHTNESS BECOMING DULL AS IT MOVE ON AND THE SIZE BECOMING BIG. SO SURPRISE TO SEE FOR TWO DAYS. PLEASE MAKE AN EFFORT TO KNOW WHAT IT IS. THANK YOU.

On the weather channel today, they showed footage of a volcano erupting and during the minute or more was a stationary "saucer" [?] that also resembled a dash mark with a round bulb on the top and bottom center. I would guess that it wasn't a drone due to extreme lack of movement. I punched record on my dvr, and can probably record that to dvd disc if you like. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

North Phoenix, AZ
It was made odf something resembling a shiney alloy. It had two lights both were white. It could have been around for a few minutes, but I watched it for 3 minutes. It changed altitudes and swirved around.... Another car stopped to watch too it was odd. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Livingston, NJ
As I was driving the gym at 5am as I do every day, I looked up to observe the early sky, as I do every day and it was all dark, no stars, even the clouds looked dark. Then I noticed a green light REALLY HIGH in the sky and just assumed it was a plane because I live close enough to the Newark Airport. But this light was different, it was BRIGHT it did not blink or waver, then it started to descend and I thought omg this plane is going to crash, but it came down with such grace and ease it was unreal. As it got closer, I noticed it now was showing red lights as well. I was driving, so I could not catch all the patterns of lights, but I noticed at least 2 red and 2 green sometimes all 4 were lit, sometimes just 1 of each or 1 red and 1 green. Now it gets really freaky because no one else was on the road and I usually see at least 1 car, this ufo followed my car. It literally descended towards my car, followed me through my neighbor hood and got within 20 feet of my car at the light right in front of the Livingston Police Station. It was absolutely silent no noise, this thing moved unlike anything I have ever seen. I felt an eerie sense of calm, peace and quite for the 5 minutes this ufo was in my life. There was something in there manning this ufo, more than one something, I felt them looking at me, it LITERALLY bee-lined for my car, hoovered at the stop light then disappeared into thin air. No lights, no noise literally left me feeling like a crazy person. But I know this was real, I know in my heart what happened to me and I know they came in peace. I told my best friend she feels the same. I have never felt or seen anything like this in my life. This was AMAZING. I could not make out a specific shape of the ufo, it seemed disc like by the lights but there was this haze around the whole thing making it really hard to see the actual object...it was NUTS!! I felt like all time stopped, and it took me HOURS to comprehend what happened.

Vandalia, OH
This site would not let me copy and paste the Word Document into this box, so here is my full sighting description: Report Time: 10:22PM Location: Vandalia, OH Sighting Time: 9:50PM Report: My boyfriend and I were driving East on State Route 40/National Rd., driving past the Dayton International Airport. I look to my right, and see TWO bright lights (one flying object). We think nothing of it at first. I follow it with my eyes and see it start to speed up. It begins to go so fast that I am now looking at it straight on as we proceed to go East on National. It begins to proceed to the left, but then it stops midair. The object then begins to start heading right. That is when we decide to follow it. The object then starts to go left again. We thought, maybe this was a helicopter, but then, logically thinking, a helicopter would not have been going that fast. As the object proceeds going left, it starts to go downward, then back up, then down again behind a building. And that was the last we saw it. Please do not take this as a joke, we truly believe we witnessed a UFO tonight.

Sarasota, FL
Incredibly low to the ground, flew very steadily and pretty fast, it took about 1-2minutes to fly over me and fly out of sight. Two large bright white lights blinking. The outside looked like a rectangular disk, but difficult to see exact shape because it was at night.

Torrance, CA
The aircraft was in the typical UFO shape and emitted a bright light so the shape could clearly be seen. Two red lights were on the bottom. It was going fast in a northeastern direction, but strangely was a bit close to the city. It was easier to see at a higher altitude, a.k.a. hills.

Charleston, SC
We saw a fairly large disc fly slowly over Rivers Avenue. As we watched it, the orange light went out and we could still see the disc shape, because there were no stars visible through the shape. There was also no sound coming from the disc.

Rio Negro (Colombia) · Colombia
I was taking a picture of the sky because it was really clear and beautiful and there was nothing on it. But when I saw the picture, I saw something in the sky that wasn't there when I took the picture. So, I stare at the sky and there was nothing on it except beautiful and shining clouds. And in the picture you can see an unidentified flying object with a strange shadow that nobody saw, except on the picture. This picture was taken in Rionegro, Antioquia, in Colombia and the object was flying upon the Rionegro airport but is clear not an airplane.

Kailua Kona, HI
We saw bright lights in the distance and thought that it was a airplane headed toward the airport nearby, but the lights stayed stationary and did not approach the airport. We were driving on the highway and were getting closer to it. As we got closer we could see that it was a stout cylindrical disk shape with lights. Light was directed down at the ocean close to Makalawena Beach. We directly passed it a mile marker 90 on the highway. No lights were blinking. Lights were a soft white/yellow color. We drove back on the same road three hours later. By then the sun had risen. At mile marker 90 there was nothing that could have been what we saw.

Virginia Beach, VA
Saw a whole fleet of domed shaped saucers all aglow in orange, with red lights around the bottom. They were flying due east towards the ocean. They kept coming. I stopped counting at 20. They were first headed right over our house, and then also to the far right. There was so many, me, my daughter and son couldn't count them all. I tried to take pictures with my Vivitar camera. They didn't come out as clearly as we could see them with our eyes. We were in awe!

Smyrna, GA
Spotted an unusually bright orange/red light flying north to south over the house on New Years Eve - much like a fireball but without a tail. Flew directly over Dobbins Air Reserve base towards my residence, (which is perpendicular to their runway). Solid flare - no colored side lamps, no blinking lights, much brighter than other planes nearby, easily a -6 brightness. Absolutely silent, left no contrail. Moved faster than a plane but slower than a meteor. Was clearly disc shaped as it passed overhead/perhaps more like a donut (darkened center underneath). As soon as it passed another appeared on same trajectory, then another and another evenly spaced - counted 8 of them in 15 minutes, with one slightly off to our west but still heading due south. This is highly unusual for regular air traffic because the standard holding pattern from Hartsfield-Jackson airport in Atlanta is to cycle planes to our west heading due north instead. Could not be lanterns - wind was blowing NNW and these were much larger than anything else in the sky. Five witnesses.

While driving down my street I seen a huge metal flying disk hovering over the houses on my block. I seen a lot of lights spinning or flashing and square windows spinning. When I turned the corner to get a better look, the object was gone.

Reno, NV
Walking home from work when I saw blue and red blinking lights much like a plane. It wasn't until it shot across the sky that I took more notice of what it was. A circle of blue lights with 3 red lights in a triangle formation in the center that blinked at differing intervals. I'm not sure of the shape because it had definite mass blocking out the stars that did not have lights on it. It changed direction multiple times at varying speeds before stopping and hovering for a few seconds. All the lights started pulsing before it moved away out of sight at a faster speed than any plane I've ever seen in the sky. I caught the majority of the event on video.

Millbrook, NY
For two years in the night sky we have seen in various positions, stationary objects with blinking lights (red, blue, green) flashing. These objects spontaneously jump left and right, waive ring, also up and down, then disappear. In the last two nights, a half mile away, one seems grounded in a distant pasture, going up and down for hours. We finally drove the road, North Tower Hill, only to see it until we got closer, go completely out. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Anchorage, AK
Mother and I saw what appeared to be a "traditionsl 1950's war of the worlds" type of flying saucer hovering over the forest (about triple tree height) near the military base off of Seward Highway in Anchorage. When we rounded a bend in the highway it immediatly was visable. About 10 seconds after we laid eyes on it, the craft flew up and away into our atomsphere at a velocity so instantaneous and quick that it was out of sight in about 1 second. The cloud/fog cover settled immediatly after the craft departed.

Kenmore, NY
I noticed a very bright light in the sky, towards the direction of the city of Buffalo, which I think is West. It would have been about 2 miles away and not very high in the sky, as it was at about the height of the radio/tv tower on top of channel WIVB, which was to this light’s right. It was stationary for several minutes, then started to move slowly. It picked up speed, but not altitude. It went over my house and In the direction of Tonawanda. It had a flatish bottom and on one side of the bottom was a neon green light. It made the sound of a loud vacuum, a pulsing sound. Very unlike a plane or a helicopter. It made a fast circular maneuver and moved left and out of sight at an incredible speed.
