Clarksville, TN
While photographing an evening lightning storm, I captured an image of a craft that I cannot explain. At the time, I did not know the craft was present in the distance, it was not discovered until the following day while I was looking at and editing my pictures for content and color. Initially, I thought that I had captured an extremely bright star, but as I zoomed in on the object, it appeared to be below the thunder/lightning and clouds. It seemed to stay stationary and or keep pace with the clouds. Yes, the picture do appear to be edited, only to the point of adjusting some colors in order to bring out the object in as much detail as I possibly can. The originals are still intact and unedited, but they are harder to see and make out the object in question.

Blandon, PA
6 black objects, rising slowly, moving rapidly from west to east, very close. First one by itself, next three in formation, last two apart from the main group. All following the same trajectory. No sound at all. Flying against the wind as altitude increased. Watched until they disappeared into the clouds.

Myrtle Beach, SC
Around 20:00 hrs., an orange oval appeared in the sky. It almost appeared to be a star, but was much to bright. After not moving for a few minutes it looked as if droplets were dripping from the craft. These droplets were the same color as the craft. It remained stationary for about 5 minutes before slowly fading away. I'm usually very skeptical of UFO sightings, but this was something I couldn't explain. My sister was also outside with me and saw the same thing. I was lucky enough to get a video of it, sadly my phone doesn't have the best quality, but never less I feel lucky to have a video regardless of the quality. After searching on the internet I was easily able to find similar stories containing UFOs that are explained exactly as I just did, even down to the droplets I saw.

A red, football shaped craft, entered my view in the southeastern sky, proceeded at high speed, as well as i can estimate according to estimated altitude, and crossed the sky to exit my view in the west. In my life, I have never seen anything like this craft. I am 62. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Temecula, CA
I was in the back yard of my house with my friend. I saw something red on the sky and I told to my friend, "Look, Marte is right there." ((sic. Mars??)) She said " is Venus is not Marte". and than we saw the red moving really slow, and we tough that it was a airplane. But the lights were not flashing like airplane so we keep watching the red ball and after seconds the red ball disappear.

Algonquin, IL
A neighbor and I were sitting around his fire pit when six bright amber/orange orbs streaked past in the clear, about 57 degree, night sky (you had to wear a sweater and could clearly see stars). Three orbs crossing from the south, to the north at an extremely high rate of speed. The first one passed over and caught our attention, then within an approx. 15 second window the second one shot by following the same path of the first orb then, within the same time element the third one streaked past following the previous two. They were so high and moved extremely fast, that we could not tell if they were pulsating very rapidly, or if what seemed to be pulsing was an optical illusion. Then, there was what seemed to be a five to ten minute pause in the action and the fourth one came streaking into vision and appeared to veer to the west one to five degrees from the first thee (moving so fast that we could not tell how the change in direction occurred). Once again, a brief pause and the fifth and sixth ones appeared, each veering the one to five degrees from each other. Ironically, minutes before the fifth and sixth orb streaked by, a commercial or cargo type airplane, high in the sky passed overhead from the west to the east (could barely see the port and starboard lights flashing and was a good point of reference as to if the orbs were pulsing). Our point of reference for the headings was the tree line directly behind our homes that face from south (front) to north (backyard and fire pit). From our position of viewing, the orbs appeared to be the approx. size of a quarter.

We look up after being on the beach for some time and decided to leave. When we turned around for one final look there was a deep bright red oval hovering over the ocean. It appeared to be getting closer and brighter. There were occasional lights that flickered underneath the craft. We did not stay to see how long it was there but when we went out about 5 minutes later, it was no longer there. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Grand Rapids, MI
It is July 16, 2014, 9:25 pm, the reason I know what time it was because my father and law stated to my sister in-laws that he timed them out of the yard chore that had been done at 9:25 pm July 16, 2014. During this initial conversation, I looked up into the sky saw a plane coming from the south and the plane was clear enough for me to have stated sitting in front of the wing and the rear of the wing a few times in my life. While looking up at the air plane, reminiscing about old times, I noticed a oval shaped faintly lit orange object in the sky heading west moving about the same speed as the airplane I spoke of earlier. I watched this object about the size of a head of a 5/32 drill bit down to a 1/8 drill bit, then all of sudden I seen about 3/4 of an inch of white smoke behind the 1/8 inch drill bit size object disappeared. (Shapes and sizes are my point of view of the flying object from where I was standing in Grand Rapids, Michigan, while looking up into a clear blue sky the plane was about an 1 inch long in the sky. ) Keep in mind the plane was heading northeast, and the object was heading west.

Demming, WA
My son and I were outside looking at the stars at our cabin near Mt. Baker in WA. The sky was very dark and we could see a patch of the sky through the trees. We were setting up a small telescope and talking when the super bright light appeared. It was right next to what we thought was a planet (as it was very bright). I did not notice the moving light before but now it was brighter than the planet. It was moving slowly in a circular motion and definitely was not an airplane. It was going back and forth and then started to fade and went in a line away from the planet and we lost it in the trees. I was still going when we lost it. We did not see it with the telescope and we could not get a picture of it, as it was too far away.

Imlay City, MI
On July 12, 2014, at approximately 10:18 pm, my husband and I were traveling east and southbound on Cedar Rd/ M53 Imlay City 48444 just past the Imlay City Police Station. My husband said to me to look up. It was a bright shiny light like a helicopter but brighter and way, way faster. It appeared to be following the road we were on. As we continued watching an Imlay City officer put on his lights. We thought he had seen something and was informing the public. But he was pulling someone over. I am certain it is on his dash cam and we did report it to the police. We called but couldn’t get the officer to call us back or look! It did not appear to be anything either of us were familiar with such as helicopters or shooting stars. It diverted sharply in the distance to the left and then continued back on its past headed east. Also, there was absolutely no sound being emitted from the UFO> My husband worked as a civilian in a tank plant and is also familiar with jets, etc. This occurred so fast (in seconds) as we tried to catch up and keep our eyes on it, but couldn’t. The local news seemed disinterested so we reported it to you and I would like to put my sighting in writing.

San Diego, CA
To Whom It May Concern, A friend and I were driving towards the beach in San Diego on Friday the 11th of July, 2014. I was driving over a bridge when I saw something strange in the sky about 1 to 2 miles away towards the beach. I looked at it for about 30 seconds, while trying to show my friend what I was looking at. He couldn't see what I was seeing: a round orb flouting in the sky. It wasn't anything recognizable, i.e. plane, helicopter or drone. I told my friend to take some pictures with his I-phone but he couldn't see what I was talking about so I told him to steer the car while I took the pictures. I was able to get two pictures through my windshield and one with the window on the driver's side rolled down. There wasn't a place to pull over and when I finally could pull over the object had disappeared.

Almeria (Spain) · Spain
Me and my wife were at our hotel balcony that was next to the sea in a nature reserve called Cabo de Gata, in Almeria, Spain, when as we were looking at the stars in the sky we saw a light that resembled a chinese lantern as it was red in the center and white around the border and in a circular shape. We discarded the idea of a chinese lantern when it did not burn up but continued rising until it vanished with the stars without changing shape. I have seen many chinese lanterns and it was not one, I have also checked the heavens above web and it was no satelite as none were above or near that location on that date, no ISS so I am baffled and looking for answers...

1 minute apart from each other they would disappear into thin air. They were red and orange blinking. At first I thought it was a plane, but if a plane disappeared into thin air, it would be on the news.

The craft then shot down the mountain at a speed that was unlike anything I've seen , then did like a check mark looking maneuver and disappeared. The oval object was changing from a greenish color to a blue

there are mountains behind my house and it was around 1am as I was opening my room window and I looked outside and in the distance where the mountains are, I see a white bright light in the shape of an oval for about 10-15 seconds then the light slowly dropped behind the mountains but you could kind of see some of that light Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.

Milford, OH
I was driving south on interstate 275 with my convertible top down when I noticed an orange colored light in the sky to the west out of the corner of my eye. I originally thought the object was an airplane but when I actually looked at the object it was clear that it wasn't an airplane. From my vantage point the object appeared to be on fire and glowing orange. It was flying at about the same altitude and speed that a helicopter would fly. The object was very quiet. I continued to drive while watching the object in my rearview mirror cross overhead of the interstate behind me. It then appeared to slightly increase in altitude flying away and behind me before it exited my field of view. I observed it for a total of about 30 seconds. I turned around at the next exit a couple miles down the road and went back to see if the object was still in the area and try to get a video with my phone but I did not see it again.

Seneca, MO
We were sitting on our back porch watching the fireworks show and noticed a weird glowing orange light go through one of the fireworks they set off. Thought it may have been a plane. It disappeared off in the tree line. This happened again as they were setting off the finale, I asked my bf if he seen it. It went through the display, and disappeared in the tree line, starting at the same spot as before. The finale was set off, and here came another one from the same spot (they appeared from underneath the moon,to our left, the display was to the right. They were all moving at a speed slower than the wind. I snapped a pic of the last one. It also disappeared into to tree line and was gone. We waited to see if it happened again, and it didn't. Very strange.

We pulled over when we couldn't see any FAA lights on the object and watched as it continued upward, then completely disappeared. We continued to sit there, waiting to see if it merely disappeared behind clouds. We waited approximately 5 minutes then left.

Three Oaks, MI
In our field of vision of the sky from our front porch, it took 60-75 seconds for this low flying,quite large orange object to cross the landscape. In seemed very low, moving unnaturally slow, and was completely quiet. At first,we believed it was some kind of firework debris that was on fire and floating across the sky, but it couldn't be. It looked a brightish, flame orange and was roughly circular, but it did not have clear, easily discernable edges. It appeared almost illusory... Like seriously bad special effect. All witnesses are in complete shock. Not sure how this web site works, it was revealed in google search, but if any other witnesses saw this, I would be interested in discussing.
