Saphan sung, BANGKOK · Thailand
Good evening, I live in Bangkok Saphan Sung. I was walking my dog and looking at the sky my eye was caught by an extremely fast moving object flying not bright object below the clouds and went from the horizon from west to east in maximum 2 seconds. This was at 20:03 Bangkok time I was wondering has anyone else seen it? Where would be best to speak to someone about my observation?

Hot Springs National Park, AR
Over Lake Hamilton just before/at sunset. The moon was visible during the day and bright. Under the moon we saw what looked like a floating plastic bag, semi transparent. At first we thought it was an independent floating cloud, it was far too big and high to be a plastic bag. When we first saw it, it was to the left of the moon underneath and moving away from the moon. Then it abruptly changed directions and moved to the right underneath the moon. It was high but fast. Much faster than any clouds in the sky. When it reached the tree line of our sight, it disappeared. Shortly after a second one, identical to the first in shape and size and color, appeared to the left of the moon, moving to the right toward the other one. When it reached the top of the tree line from our view, it disappeared. There was no sound at all.

I was driving back from work when I looked into the sky and noticed a perfectly round white disk of some sort hovering in the sky. It was colored sort of silver and like the clouds but it was smooth and definitely not a cloud. It moved relatively fast and when I drove past a tree line it disappeared.

Going down 287 past Ft. worth towards Amarillo. I suddenly see a blue light in the sky and it’s coming straight down in the distance. It was moving unexplainably fast. It was too fast to get a photo but I’m hoping someone did. It was terrifying.

Speedwell, TN
I was in my driveway at 37724 zip code, Cumberland Gap TN at 11:15pm EST noticed light white color blinking and solid light. UAP believed to be at Very high altitude above all nearby aircraft that came into view then flew out of view within minutes (commercial or military) were lower than the UAP to help gauge altitude. While the UAP continued to be visible for over half an hour Claiborne Co. 911 was called and 2 deputies showed up and confirmed my observation of something high in the sky moving south. DHS tip line also reported to. One deputy had military experience and tried to determine if flights were nearby and 11 were seen in the area but agreed with me that it's unexplained UAP due to the up, down, left, right movement in fluid motions.

At around eleven pm at night I noticed a light and the only way I can explain how it looked like was it came down and up like a Nike logo. It was super bright and lasted a couple seconds. I waited to see if it appeared again or where it went. It just disappeared very quickly.

Powell Junction, ID
At approximately 11pm, on a partly moonlit night, I saw a silhouette of a “V” shaped craft with six orange lights along the outside and one larger red light in the middle of the crux. It was not making any sound to where some campers close by didn’t even know it was there. It was moving just above the tree tops along the Lochsa river west to east about 50 mph. I estimate the width from tip to top to be 250’ - 300’.

The star like light was brighter than the brightest light from a satellite or star and it was a white light with no blinking or color, just white. It took about one minute to cross from Western sky to Eastern sky. I could see some stars through the clouds but this light Appeared to be below the clouds. Checked the time and it was 10:00pm.

MY ORIGINAL STATEMENT: please bear with me as I write this and try to explain, both witnesses mentioned in the story are present and a part of writing this statement (witness who used flightradar24 and witness who saw) Two incidents- one person who was a witness (with two other witnesses), on the same night another person was tracking aircrafts using flightradar24, not only saw unusual flight batterns (square, boxy, tracking one (blocked) aircraft flying over feather sound and near the Saint Petersburg airports in Saint Petersberg, aircraft was being followed by sherrif helicopter of said county) but also witnessed Sarasota county Sherrif's office tracking an aircraft that could not be identified on flight radar at all. Simply "AIR1". We will now dive into the context of thr eye witnesses before adding anymore about flightradar 3 eye witnesses noticed objects- best described as bluish white- flying at high speeds. VERY FAR AWAY. Straight line. When discussed regarding starlink they ended up being adamant it was not. Objects followed each other in a straight line. Eye witness from the beach discussed this with flightradar24 witness on that day. FR24 witness harbors a general interest in aviation history as well asa aircrafts, so they frequent the F24 app and website. Witnessed was tracking an unidentified aircraft "AIR1" which was being followed by the sherrifs. They were tracking it for about an hour or so. Ended up also seeing odd flight patterns and a similar event going on in saint petersberg. Witness wanted to go out and see it; however they were quite frightened. Witness has a balcony that they often go out on, witness was too scared to go out on the balcony but looked from within the house by opening the blinds on the doors. Saw one singular star-like looking object but cannot be certain of what it was, as they were distressed; however, they were tracking the location and it corroborated. There also was a plane from the air force base in saint petersburg that departed that night I had chat GPT-4 polish my statement for more clarity and better vocabulary, here is what it said: We appreciate your patience as we recount the events of the sighting, with both witnesses involved in this incident actively participating in drafting this statement (the witness who utilized FlightRadar24 and the one who observed the phenomena). On the night in question, two distinct incidents were recorded: One individual, accompanied by two other witnesses, observed anomalous aerial phenomena. Around the same time, another individual was monitoring aircraft movements using FlightRadar24, and noted unusual flight patterns. Specifically, a blocked aircraft was detected flying over Feather Sound and near the St. Petersburg airports in St. Petersburg. This aircraft appeared to be trailed by a sheriff's helicopter from the corresponding county. Moreover, an aircraft labeled "AIR1", unidentifiable on FlightRadar24, was observed being tracked by the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office. Now, we will delve into the observations made by the eye witnesses before elaborating on the FlightRadar24 findings. The three witnesses reported seeing objects—best described as bluish-white—in the sky, moving at high velocities and following a straight trajectory. Despite their distant appearance, the witnesses were adamant that these were not Starlink satellites as initially suggested, based on the consistent straight-line formation in which the objects trailed one another. One of the witnesses, was at the beach during this sighting and later shared their observation with the individual monitoring FlightRadar24. This individual, with a keen interest in aviation history and aircraft, frequently uses the FlightRadar24 app and website to track air traffic. On this night, they were tracking an unidentified aircraft labeled "AIR1", which appeared to be followed by sheriff’s deputies. Over the course of an hour or so, the FlightRadar24 witness also noted odd flight patterns and a similar event occurring in St. Petersburg. Intrigued yet apprehensive, the witness wanted to venture outside for a clearer view but was deterred by fear. Nonetheless, from the relative safety of indoors, they opened the blinds on their doors and observed a singular star-like object in the sky. While distress impaired a clear identification of the object, its location corroborated with the unusual flight activity being tracked on FlightRadar24. Additionally, it was noted that an aircraft from the air force base in St. Petersburg departed on the same night, adding another layer of intrigue to the aerial activities observed. This revised statement maintains the essence of your original narrative while enhancing clarity and coherence for the reader. Please review and adjust as per your exact experiences and recollections before submitting to NUFORC. Thank you very much for your time, consideration, and patience [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Probable]

I saw a white, egg-shaped craft in the sky. The bottom half of the craft had yellow lights that came on and off. The craft was moving downward in the sky, zig-zagging back and forth.

There are alien bird noises played by an alien speaker in our backyard. When we go outside to check if there are birds, there are none. It is also 90 degrees outside and the noises are heard at 5:00pm. I repeat there are no birds outside and these noises are coming from a kind alien who planted a speaker in our backyard. If you send some troops over I can show them the noises. The noises are electronic in sound and definitely not real birds. The speaker appears to be micro as I cannot find it, I need specialized equipment and a ladder to find it (it seems to be planted on our roof). The noises are included in the zip folder attached, and I repeat they are repetitive and electronic. [NUFORC annotation: Hoax - Possible]

Near Atlanta, GA. I was sitting at my pool when an object about the size of a human being with a dark grey/dark green tint flew overhead. My first thought was that it was a bird or something...however the object's velocity was very quick and there were no flapping wings. It was partly cloudy outside. The altitude of this object was slightly higher than the average bird. It spanned across my view in approximately 5 seconds... so short of time that when I tried to tell the person next to me about the object, it was already too far away.

Heading westbound on I-40 two orange sources of light were ascending up through the cloud line. They were vaguely orb shaped, but had a lot of light reflecting off clouds distorting their shape. Once they broke through the clouds they disappeared.

Looks like something from the moon Titan. Has gyro axis alike moves with light bending around in circular motion in Saturn ring form and a little unsteady moving around in formation. Something weird I heard people saw others with cat like eyes, which I don't believe. But the aircraft I saw. I try to record this, I swear I find things like this. In another city they were at night circling a skyscraper in Bonn, like analysing or gathering information slowly in Bonn near UN building like 10 meters before around.

I saw a very distant blinking light, it was white, and i thought it was a plane because planes pass all the time but it was moving really weird. it was dancing around and zipping too fast to be a plane so i asked my roommate if she saw it too, and we watched it for a while. we saw other flashing lights but this one kept coming back, it zipped around for a while before passing directly over our building and out of sight. as it got closer the color got orangey, but white at the same time almost. it was close enough to where we could see the lights clearly but they just looked like lights, no craft.

I was at back side of Walgreens at the corner of Franklin blvd and Mack Rd on Sacramento, Ca. on the 25th of July around 2:05am. I looked up to see Jupiter in the sky but then noticed an object not far from where Jupiter would be but a little further down and above the tree and lights. At first looked like maybe a very high street light since that is what it looked like at first till it started moving very slowly, actually surprised it was coming towards me. It was moving so slow that I was waiting to hear a jet engine of some kind but only heard what sounded like a gush of wind/fans or maybe a very slight engine sound-hard to describe since had never heard in the sky a flying object like this. It was triangular shaped I think maybe the size of a Southwest airline jet with a solid white light near each tip/blacker than the sky so it showed up very well and more lights to the center of the object of different colors and looked like it bulged out a little in the center where the other maybe white/red/yellow-can't remember exactly the colors but went over me heading to the slight southwest towards Davis-(a town sorta southwest of Sacramento). By the time I got through with what I was doing-(maybe 2min) I tried to see if I could catch up or sight it since at the time seemed slow enough to do that. I went down Franklin Blvd maybe a mile-right to Consumes River Blvd toward the direction the object was going but it seem to have disappear out of sight. It was one of many times I wish I had my video camera to video what I was looking at-(this tho being my 1st encounter of an overhead object in the night sky). I do have video of a small object appearing in my back yard garage door at night flying from the ground through the sky past my outdoor house camera. I have shown friends but surprisingly they are my uninterested intellectuals who seemed to be only interested if I had video of me talking to the aliens. The object looked like a pure white round disk shape but maybe only 5-8" in diameter-(as I said small). It looked like my camera which will record on movement caught something that turned on to record-then suddenly the an object lights up on the ground-flew up past my camera-(which is sitting maybe 12-16' from the ground). I have experienced this type recording before but deleted it thinking it was a bug????? But a round bug?? Anyway this time I kept the recording. I didn't have a way to record off my house camera's dvd type recorder so I had to play it using my Sony digital Handycam-I had to do a stop tape/then forward/stop tape/the forward cause the object moved very fast and can only capture the object in flight doing this. Through the whole flight of the object if it was a flying insect the shape would have appeared to show such but the object kept its same exact shape through the whole flight past my outside camera. I will give you my email addr but not my address-(but not to far from the sight), or my t#. We'll see what happens with this info. In your Contact info that I filled out does state that all the info is confidential unless I check the "permission to release your name" box which I did not check!! So please do not release any of this info in Contact Info. Thanks for your time.

It was an orange orb , in seconds it grew to be super bright and pouring out white hot light streams, almost looking like a diamond with bright bright orange and white, some small rays that were rainbow esque, a diamond. Hovered then kept going. Got smaller. Gone
