Mattawa (Canada), ON · Canada

Summer 2018, we were having a family reunion and I went down to the river alone around 7 pm to swim and when in the middle of the river noticed this orb in the sky tracking towards me on a 45 angle- it scared the crap out of me and I swam back to shore grabbed a towel and my clothes and it started tracking off on a steeper angle away from me and quickly and disappeared as I ran back to the house. I was freaking out and everyone was telling me I saw a drone. It was a bright light orb no sound with an x in it with this slow steady encroaching vibe? May 16, 2020 repeat appearance 11 pm I was laying in bed with a skylight to my right and saw a falling star and said oh that's nice then this straight gold bar of light shot into the sky and turned into a bright gold light tracking away from my house but very high up and far away in a clear night sky so I decided to stand in my skylight to look at it because it was so weird before I knew it it was another orb like the one in the river tracking straight towards me centered on the skylight. I watched it track towards me bright glowing orb no x in it but some line in it also highlighted with light? I freaked out again when it was 200m off and stepped out of the skylight turned on my cell to take a pic but it was gone when I stepped back. Then I wondered if I shouldn't have stepped away and should be braver when these things approach me?

This is the 2nd time this particular UFO has flown over my house. Large ball of fire seems to be spinning. Moves extremely fast then stops and hovers. When it disappears it literally just vanishes!!! I’m December we saw around 20. They seemed to make laps around a spot light the local Christian college shines every Christmas. They would make laps around and come back. In pairs or 4 together. Then a few one by one. In the sky compared to the moon they are massive. Please let me know if there are any other reports in my area. Thank you. ((name deleted))

Portland, OR

Roommate and I were eating a late dinner together when we spotted an orange ball of light flying low above the trees through the window. We’re unsure how far away it was, but it appeared to move in front of 3 radio towers, so possible a mile or so. Object was a bright orange light, orb in shape. It descended at a quick but steady pace into the trees and temporarily out of sight, maintaining the same elevation and moving in a smooth, non-linear manner. The first slope was gentle and the light was steady, not like a descending flare. It had no other lights visible. The object returned about five minutes later and was visible in the tree line before disappearing again. There was no sound and it was too small to be a traditional aircraft. We feel we would have seen multiple blinking lights, especially if it were flying that low. This is the second time we’ve seen this object. Upon looking at YouTube videos, this looks almost exactly like videos of orange ball UF! O sightings.

Powhatan, AR

I recorded this very early this morning. At first I thought it was just a street light but then it started moving and moved down towards the ground and came closer to the point that I thought it might even come into the yard. Unfortunately, I didn’t think about recording it until a few minutes after that and although it does show it moving some, it doesn’t move nearly as much as it did before I started recording. It seems to get brighter and then dim. I have absolutely no clue what this thing is. There was no noise. I’ve never seen a weather balloon so I don’t know if that’s an option. Gas light?

I noticed small white flashes above my yard as I grilled. Shortly after, I saw a blue, three strobe orb fly a few feet above my house. I was completely shocked because I knew instantly that it was nothing I had seen before. As I stood there flipping my burgers, thinking about what i had just seen I had an idea. I had my flashlight on my phone on, so I flashed my light 3 times up in the sky like whatever I had just seen fly overhead. Nothing happened the first time but when i done it again the thing came back around. This time it parked and hovered in a very tall tree not far from my house. It wasn't flashing anymore but a constant dim blue light slowly weaving through the branches of this very large tree. As I continued flashing my light in flashes of three, I began to see 2 other small white lights in the same tree as the blue orb. They made no sound at all. Couldn't of been a drone because it was in this large oaktree, moving around in the dense leaves. They looked sort of like fireflies but there are no fireflies out yet. It was at about this time my wife came out and I filled her in. I tried repeatedly to get the lights to flash again but nothing. But sure enough as I was about to give up, all three lights began to move and light up! So my wife seen these lights and I knew this was something that was really there, maybe 100 yards from my house hanging in this very large tree. Doing what? I have no clue. But after she saw the lights she became frightened and she made me quit communicating with my light and go inside. This was the first time I have experienced anything like this, ever.

Port Orchard, WA

A round shaped object flying west to East across the sky. The object at first seemed like a satellite, no sound and moving quickly. Upon further watching the object pulsates bright to almost dark and then bright again. During its path across the sky on 3 occasions when it pulsated bright it had an incredibly bright white flash that illuminated an aura about 100x it’s small size and then continued to pulsate until moving out of view.

North Las vegas, NV

Around 9:20 I was smoking a cigarette in my backyard when suddenly a bright flashing red/orange orb came flying around. It was flying a little low and made no noise. The orb backtracked, went down, to the side & then proceeded to head north. I called my sister & told to her look out the window to see if she saw what I saw. She only caught a glimpse of the UFO before it disappeared behind the mountains. It was a bright flashing sphere. It almost looked like it was flashing a signal & looking for something.

El Paso, TX

I was driving home and noticed what appeared to be a red flame about 300 yards in the sky. The flame (reddish/orange in color) light, traveling north over loop 375 looked a little blurry so I parked and continued to observe to flame but still looked blurry. The flame light appeared to fade out as the light turned west, then noticed the large dark (black) sphere shape appear with the reflection of the city lights. The sphere was about the size of a large two story house (possibly larger), continued to travel west bound. The sphere did not have lights or sound to indicate it was a plane.

Muskogee, OK

My wife , son , and I were hanging out in the backyard checking out constellations and seeing if we could spot meteor activity. A while into looking at and looking up all the stars and different “Starlink” satellites via night sky app , my son notices a red ball so far in the distance it looks like Mars(which is not in our view right now). He says ,” check out that plane “ We all start gazing at the “plane” which STOPPED, DROPPED ELEVATION SLIGHTLY SHOT TO THE RIGHT IN THE MOST PERFECT LINE STOPPED AGAIN , HOVERED. My sons freaking out saying how this is impossible “planes don’t do that dad!” Which I know I’ve been a believer my whole life and haven’t ever had a sighting. He gets his phone out to take a picture and the camera on his iPhone wouldn’t even register it and COULD NOT focus on it. I get my phone out to video it and as soon as I press record it darts out of view and then disappears. CRAZY!!! So I’m thinking everything because I don’t immediately believe anything so I question “maybe a drone” . This was in the western sky moving from south to north and then back south to disappear. Here’s the thing..... we had been watching different stuff planes, satellites, we saw a meteorite.... this thing covered enough air space it would have taken a jet plane a full minute to fly out of view at the distance it was at MAYBE longer so definitely not a drone ! This thing which was a red ball we thought could be mars at first(how far away we could see the light ) moved perfectly UP with no hesitation or wiggle , shot from on side of the sky to the other , stopped on a dime like it made a wrong turn and took off the other way ....to me the lights didn’t appear flashing just a solid red “orb” / sphere /“star” . The event took place in a matter of one or two minutes and covered enough sky from point A to point B and BACK that a jet / drone/ helicopter / anything from this earth would’ve taken minutes to travel it in ONE direction let! alone up down left and right and then completely disappear ou! t of sig ht to never be seen again !.

San Antonio, TX

It was nighttime I was home with one of my family members she pointed at the window I was sitting next to saying "what's that light" i looked and saw a bright orange light in shape of an orb it look luminescent with an yellow/white glow coming from the middle. The orb wasn't moving fast just a little slow almost like a gliding motion moving in a perfectly straight line maybe 50 feet above the treeline. This sighting took place on the southwest side of the city.

Zillah, WA

I stepped outside looked up when I noticed what looked like a satellite coming from the west. It seemed to move a bit faster than a usual satellite and a little brighter. My first thought was it was in a low orbit. As it passed over head it quickly faded out as it moved into the shadow of the earth. A few minutes later I saw another one just like the first coming what seemed to be on the same trajectory fading out in the same position. It was then I saw others flying equidistant from one another on the same trajectory as the first. You could see two to three at any one time something like C17s flying in a strait line. This continued for about 10-15 minutes. I had been watching for a while before I got my old iphone noted the time and tried to take a picture which yeilded nothing. The date is a close estimation. I first tried to report the sighting a few days later but my computer was continuously Tying s like someone was holding down the key i.e. s! sssssssssssssssssssss. If anybody else saw this it would be interesting to know.

100+ round lights traveling Northeast one after the other. Not aircraft, no noise was made. This happened for about an hour and is still occurring. Too fast to be aircraft, too slow to be meteors and definitely followed the same path of travel.

Went outside and saw tiny lights traveling back and forth. I stood on my porch thinking what is that, no sound, it was much to small to be an airplane. All of a sudden one passed over me and exploded into a beautiful burst of different colors then suddenly disappeared. I'm still in shock by what I saw, however it was the prettiest sight. Once again, absolutely no sound or fireworks smell.

I witnessed several flashing white orbs moving high in the sky. The light would repeatedly go off then on. There were several in a group sitting still around each other, no noise. They would then move at very high speeds then sit still again

Jackson, MS

I was standing outside in my front driveway and was on the phone talking to an associate around 9pm. I looked up to the brightest star in the sky which could have been either the north star or Sirius, I am not sure, but I noticed a quiet bright white light traveling at a steady pace from west to north east. I then noticed that 3 seconds later at an even distance another light followed behind the first light in the same exact path. Then 3 seconds later another appeared, then 3 seconds later another light appeared following the others in the exact same path, the exact same distance and speed as the others. I told my associate and he laughed and said he believes me because he has seen things like that before, so I asked him to let me call him back. I called my mother outside to look at them, and she was able to see them from a far away distance beneficially for here because she had laser eye surgery which make her able to see better far away but not so close. ! She was freaked out at them but shocked and wanted to take pictures. I tried to shoot video and take photos with our iphones, but the lighting and aperture was so dark that everything looked unclear and distorted. She and I knew they were not from this earth. She was able to see 4 of last UFO's passing through before we noticed that no more were to be seen at this location. There was no sound the whole time. I listened for helicopter blades and airplane engines and heard no sound. This siting went on for about 5-10 minutes. I was told this is called a fleet of UFO's. They were all just one behind each other the same distance apart as a train and its following cars....very cool but very scary.

Alamosa, CO

This morning (5/3/2020) about 5am, I spotted small, glowing, moving orbs in the sky . They were moving single file to the SE. A ll were equal distant apart except for orb #6, which lagged a bit behind. The orbs behind #6 were all back to equal distance apart. There were 15 orbs total, however there could have been more that I had not noticed previously to looking up.

Lincolnville, ME

At approximately 4am on 5/3/2020 at Bald Rock Summit, myself and three others witnessed a string of starlike objects travel for nearly half an hour from the south west towards the eastern horizon over the ocean. The objects look like a satellite as it would appear in the the night sky. They were mostly equidistant in spacing. However, we all witnessed one of the orbs break off from the line and make a curving trajectory change towards the north, changing its heading by approx. 90 degrees. The lights seemed to materialize and appear in the same spot of clear sky towards the South West approx every ten or fifteen seconds. The sighting lasted for about half an hour, until 4:30; during this time dozens of orbs were witnessed. Myself and three others also witnessed a very similar string of lights travel from West to East from the Summit of Mount Battie on 4/19/2020 from approximately 9:00pm to 9:40pm. Prior to seeing the string of lights on 5/3/2020, we witnessed a reddish-whitish light flashing in an irregular manner towards the east over the ocean. It flashed on and off every few minutes about thirty degrees above the eastern horizon. This lasted for close to an hour before witnessing the string of orbs.

Chaska, MN

We were sitting in our east facing backyard last night when sometime after 10:00 pm I noticed a glowing orange light in the south east direction. The light hovered and was moving slightly for about a minute and then slowly faded away. Several minutes later, two orange lights appeared from the south and rose to the same spot from before. They hovered and moved slightly for up to two minutes before slowly fading and disappearing. This same occurrence repeated for approximately 30 minutes, with the lights hovering for several minutes and then disappearing for several minutes. Sometimes it was one light and sometimes it was two lights. I would describe them as glowing orange orbs.

Oswego, IL

It was 9:25 pm when I was hanging out in my garage working on my cars. when I was going to go to the bathroom outside and I saw the Large orange ball on the horizon. I started recording video on my phone right away not knowing what I was seeing. it was a large orange ball that seemed like it was on fire but was very bright orange/yellow and was changing colors from orange to yellow. this event lasted around 2 min. I have seen meteors before in my life and this I could not explain. I will send the video to your location along with maps and GPS coordinates where the UFO came from.

Orcutt, CA

We witnessed a procession of 12-14 bright white orbs traveling from South to North in the Western sky. Each orb followed the last at the same distance, speed, and trajectory until disappearing from sight. The objects had no blinking lights and made no audible sound, moving in a linear path across the sky. Female witness background: law Male witness background: Journeyman electrician Location: backyard,15 miles inland from Pacific Ocean, looking West. Orbs moved from South to North.
