Jacksonville, FL
While walking my dogs I was looking up at 2 stars. Suddenly, a white oval appeared to the left of one of the stars. I thought it was another star because it looked like one. However, the orb slowly moved across the night sky for about 30 seconds and simply disappeared. It had no flashing lights and made no noise. I have seen these orbs many times before.

Richmond, MO
Was heading home from work and I noticed something out of the corner of my eye moving really fast. Initially thought it was a jet as I seen jet streams so I took random picture in the direction I seen it going and captured some type of orb of light or something I have multiple pictures.

Cartersville, GA
At 06:12, I was opening the gate to the facility I work at. After opening the gate, I spotted three other people who was at the park that is located in front of the facility, staring out eat at the mountain line. When I went to see what they were staring at the pointed out a large bright oval disk. It seem to have stood still. Through closer inspection, it appeared to be metallic and glowing in a yellow tint. After 10 min of observation it faded behind the clouds and was gone out of sight.

Phoenixville, PA
Saturday evening at just after midnight, an object was seen hovering over Phoenixville, PA. The object hovered, moved forward and moved backwards. It did not turn around, but reversed directions, the movements were small as the object stayed in the same area of the sky. It had 3 large red lights, 1 white light and a green light appeared a couple of times. It stayed in the area for about 5 minutes before deciding to move away in a southern direction and disappearing. We have amended the date above. Saturday night at midnight would be Sunday morning, which is June 22nd. PD

I was working my dog when I headed back home when I looked up in the sky and saw two lights following very close to each other. When the lights passed me in the sky not more than 15 seconds later, two more lights followed right behind them and then two more lights a total of six lights. If they were planes they were following very close to each other very close. But I didn't hear any plane noises. They were yellow and red in color. I never saw anything like it these six oval shape lights were very close to each other Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Mukwonago, WI
I was walking my dog at 10:15 at night watching the sky as I always do there were a few fireworks going off in the distance when out of no where a bright yellowish red light appeared like a switch was turned on, I thought is was a firework until it started moving slowly to the northeast. I ran back to the apartment to get my son and the astronomy binoculars from viewing it with only my eyesight all you could see was a pulsating red light. He got the light in focus and all he could say was all my God. The red light he said was moving back and forth inside of a grey and oval silhouette that was 20 times the size of the red light and what ever side the red light would move so did this huge grey silhouette. After 30 seconds of the light moving towards us at approximately 2 or 3 thousand feet up it rapidly ascended at a great rate of speed straight up while slowly dimming the it was gone.We have seen allot of lights and unexplained things in the sky but this was the strangest we have EVER seen. This happened directly over the center of Mukwonago many people had to see this if not the whole town is blind.. WOW!!!!

Freeland, WA
On 6/21/14, 4 adults were watching the western horizon to observe an ISS flyby.. (ISS is the International Space Station.) It was visible in our area (Whidbey Island) at 9:49pm for 4 minutes. It became visible in the WSW at 11 degrees above the horizon and departed at 11 degrees S. We could see it fly over the Olympics. We were on the west side of Whidbey Island, on a bluff overlooking the water on the south end of the island. It is about 30 miles from the Naval Air Station. Three objects appeared, consecutively, about a minute or so after we watched the ISS, but they were overhead. As soon as one disappeared in the southern tree line, another appeared from the north. The objects were oval shaped. From below, we didn't see them as 3 dimensional. They were orange, reddish, almost flame colored with no contrail or flame trail. Seemed to be like a low flying aircraft. We fully expected the first one, when noticed, to be a "search" helicopter with spotlight. However, it was shortly followed by a second and then a third object. All three appeared to have the same overhead trajectory and followed each other at ~30 sec intervals. Too close to have been the same object circling. Their flight pattern was straight, with no change in speed or direction. The eerie part was their silence. There was no sound detected from any of the objects, which seemed strange, since the slightest noise gets amplified over/around water. The observers were 2 adult males and 2 adult females, ages 66-70. All with college degrees. Unfortunately, no photos were taken.

Vila Nova da Rainha (Portugal) · Portugal
Duration observation: + - 2 minutes Size Subject: Slightly smaller than the size of a dime currency (Euro) viewed from the ground. We estimate that the object is not found over 2,000 meters Description: On June 21, 2014, 07:03 minutes, I was driving on the A1 (Main Highway Portuguese in the south/north direction), when I observed an object oval in shape and dark gray color. The property remained subject during the period in which realized its presence, I noticed that would have a rotational movement (clockwise) on its main axis, for when the sun's rays focussed on the underside of the object noticed a slight moving aura ... The UFO found himself next to a cloud ending slightly beak, which came not to be covered by it. Suddenly the object began a movement hyper fast in the northwest direction. During the observation and face started to move, expect to see have seen ojecto enter the cloud, and then out of the other side quickly, but this did not happen ... he disappeared completely within the cloud. The object was metallic appearance, gray in color, has never issued any sound or stationary, nor when you started the movement. Note: I served the Portuguese Air Force for 36 years, I have the exact notion of what are fixed-wing aircraft or mobile, I know their noise, the ascending or descending movements, speeds, the usual or unexpected behavior ... Another curious aspect is the location of the place of observation. Straight local line is the 5 Kilometers of the former Air Base 2 Ota, where pilots of the Portuguese Air Force reported observations of unidentified flying objects, is an area that particularly already consider as a Hotspot, as this this subject it concerns. See this house with more detailed discrimination on the link below: http://misteriosporrevelar.comunidades.net/ufo-caso-do-piloto-fap-julio-miguel-guerra I know exactly what I saw, and I also know that in 55 years of existence have not seen anything like it! I'm not sure what it was, but I'm sure it was not: A conventional aircraft!

Portland, CT
A longtime friend and I were fishing in kayaks on the Connecticut River. He and I are both 34 year old college educated males. We both work nights (I've been a full time firefighter EMT-B for 7 years), so it's not unusual for us to go out in the CT river or on the Mattabasset all night and stay out sometimes into the next day until almost lunchtime. I am (or was) a UFO skeptic. Always have been. He is a believer. I usually roll my eyes and laugh at some of the things he's said he's seen in the past. But this came out of nowhere. We weren't looking for it. We were trying to catch some bass. No drinking or substances involved. Just glad to be not at work with no obligations and fishing finally. We started the trip from the Portland Fairgrounds... May or may not be entirely right to launch from where we did, but it was getting late and we wanted to get in. Both of us have bright LED's that illuminate the surrounding water and trees. We put the fishing off to head way down river (south). I kept asking when we were going to be at this "spot" my friend had fished in the past. Was a long trip down river. Probably a few miles. So when we saw what we both saw, we may have been near Portland, Cromwell, Rocky hill, Wethersfield, Glastonbury... I'm not 100% sure. But local fisherman have nicknamed the spot "the peninsula". It's an island in the middle of the river near "Perzold's Marine/Marina". We were heading to the back side the peninsula (downstream). Still in the middle of the CT river, We both saw something in the sky to the East. It was bright white, big, crescent shaped, appeared suddenly and went down diagonally and to our left, moving very fast, until it disappeared behind the tree line. We both said "Whoa!" At the same time. We talked about it afterwards and I kept thinking of things it could've been but they all turned out to be impossible. Closest I could think of would've been a comet or shooting star... But this was too big, too white, no tail, & too fast. It happened very quickly and was gone. So we kept moving. Our moment of wonder was soon replaced by the fact that we were at the peninsula and it was time to fish now. My friend went to shore and started a fire on the beach area. I kept paddling and casting near the shore for a bit before heading over. I got out and we got a small fire going. (Fire ordinances don't apply if you're in the middle of the river just before sunrise and don't know exactly what town you're technically in... right? Lol)... Then it got wierd enough to remember for a long time and even report on here (I can't believe I'm doing this btw.)... I was standing by the fire. For some reason I got the urge to look back over my right shoulder and up at the sky... Why? Because something was there. That's the only reason I can think of why I'd look. I had already forgotten about the other event. I looked up and saw a strange light moving a great distance at a medium pace, steadily in a straight line towards us across the sky (was heading west toward the Wethersfield side of the river.) Things then escalated to wierd level 2: the thing had one bright light. And as it got closer to being over head the light got dimmer and dimmer until it vanished completely. No clouds. Perfectly clear, still dark, just before dawn. It was gone. I turned my head back to my friend who was over on the left casting his line into the water. I quickly told him what I just saw and how wierd it was. He turned to look at me as I was talking. I looked up at the sky again and what we saw next made us both yell out profanities at exactly the ! same time. Diagonally In front of us, slightly northwest but just overhead, something shot across the sky faster than anything man made can move and in a way that stars, comets, or anything like that can move. This display, to me had "technologically advanced machine" written all over it. It made a line in the sky visible for less than a second. It was bright white and shaped like an archer's bow. Fast as hell and bright white. But this time, it didn't disappear afterwards. It looked as if it went hundreds of miles in a second to the north, and then stopped and hovered just above the tree line. And as it hovered it turned towrard us. And then it was possible to see more of its shape. It wobbled like a saucer as it turned toward us and then sat in a fixed position "watching us" as we fished. The front view it allowed us showed a multicolored string of lights around its cylindrical, saucer shaped perimeter. It say there for a while in the sky just before s! unrise, almost as if it was waiting for us to come to terms wi! th what we both saw, talk about it, and get comfortable with it to the point that we could just fish, know it's there, talk about it, and move on... Which is what we did basically. I've texted and talked about it with him in person since it happened just to verify the reality of it. I was completely blown away. There was no way I could dispute this or write it off as something else. He's happy because he "won", in that sense. But all I can think about now is wanting to see more. And I feel like a gift of knowing there's some other beings up there has been given to me. Pretty awesome. Next trip, I'll have my iPhone ready to take pics instead of tucked away in the watertight box I keep it in. Have even thought about getting a telescope. I'm amazed. That's all I can say. Thanks.

Estes Park, CO
I was watching cloud this evening looking south toward Longs Peak from my picture window. Large puffy high clouds mostly. Then I noticed a smaller cloud more to the south west but still high in the sky. The sun was still pretty high over the mountains to the west and was shining brightly. While looking at this cloud an oval shaped disk dropped out of the cloud and hung motionless in the air for about 15 seconds. I couldn't believe my eyes. Then it started to move westward and in an instant was gone.

Lancaster, PA
Driving East on route 30 reaching a light. I noticed a sparkle and or reflection of sun in the sky and started to stare and noticed an oval shaped (zeppelin shape in comparison) silverish mirror like material hovering or floating in the sky. The object was very still. Then it seemed or started to turn in a different direction. Because I noticed the shape changing. Then it just seemed to vanish like magic. All this in about 2-3 minutes.

In the southern sky saw a round red object stationary at about two o’clock in the sky. It did not seem to move but flickered as if on fire. I did not have any field glasses so this was with normal vision. The object appeared to be about the size of a pencil erasure held at arm's length. The object grew smaller as it appeared to travel away from me at great speed.

North Myrtle Beach, NC
10:04 pm June 18, 2014 I was sitting outside my beach front hotel room overlooking the ocean near 2nd street south in North Myrtle Beach. When in front of me was a section in the sky that looked like lights blinking on and off directly out over the ocean. These lights were white lights. There were at least fifteen of them in a large group. I knocked on the door and let the others in the room know what was going on. They came out and saw the event as well. Then within the swarm as I’m going to call it, came these red circular lights that seemed to skip across the sky. The swarm moved slowly up the beach over about a 5 minute interval. Then started moving back down the beach over another 5 minute interval or so. Then as a plane was flying down the coastline above. It moved out to sea, then it moved down the beach and out of our sight. It blinked with those red circles at least fifteen to twenty times over the whole event which lasted at least 25 minutes. I walked out on the beach near the end of the event and another guy asked if I saw the ufo. Him and a girl with him was on the beach watching it as well.

Peshtigo, WI
My friend and I were fishing at the mouth of the Peshtigo River where it empties into Green Bay. We were facing east. We were fishing at night for catfish. There were dozens of fireflies present, and there was lightning off in the distance to the west, north, and south as a storm was approaching. To the south about 20 yards away and about 10 yards off the ground, a flashing light caught my attention. At first I thought it was a firefly, but it could not have been. It traveled off the water towards shore from east to west in a very straight line. The line appeared to be perfectly parallel to the ground. I think it flashed 4 times in the 3-5 seconds I saw it. I estimate the speed at about 40 miles per hour, way too fast for a firefly. It looked like it was shot out of a slingshot. It looked like it was only about the size of a dime. It was much brighter than a firefly, and the flashes were very consistent. They went from dark to light almost immediately, like it was on a switch. I said to my fishing partner “tell me you saw that” and he said “yes, I did.” He agreed it was too big, too fast, and too bright to be a firefly. There were many fireflies in the area so we had them to compare. It also seemed to appear out of nowhere and then disappear just as fast after just a few seconds. I had a cell phone with a camera on me, but it disappeared before I could film it.

Coral springs, FL
Me and my dad were driving home from the park. I started to see something fairly odd in the clouds, it was as if something was in front of the clouds. I kept staring in the same place and it seemed as if something oval was moving steadily away. The most craziest part is that it was like a chameleon. A way to explain it in one word is that the craft was invisible. It took the color of the clouds and everything around it and if you stared hard you can see that something is off from the area it was in then eventually making out the craft. I shouted out to my dad "A UFO! A UFO!" well he was driving and of course it would take a while to find it with the naked eye, and when we were turning away from the area from where I can see it, it started to zoom away.

Spokane, WA
I was waiting at the Hastings Park and Ride bus Terminal in North Spokane. I was waiting for the 11:55 am bus headed north to my home in Deer Park. I estimate the time to be about 11:30 am. I was facing north and I happen to look up at the sky to see a very large, white object heading east to west at height and with speed. What surprised me was the speed it seemed to travel and the size it was. Normally, when one sees a plane at that height the plane is small, hard to see, and moving at a speed that appears slow to our relative perspective. This white colored object, however, was 3 to 4 time larger that a plane would be at that height and is travel through a large cloud break at a very fast pace. Much faster than any convention planes I’ve ever seen. Oddly enough it also left no condensation trail of any kind. I would normally discount this as the sun reflecting off an airplane but I can still not account for the size of this thing, the lack of any type of condensation trail, and the speed it was moving at.

I was standing outside smoking about 0:45 am, when I noticed a bright star like object about 45 degrees above the horizon. I was watching it change colors from red to blue to white like a star. I then saw it go dim like a light bulb, then it just disappeared. There were NO clouds in the sky last night. I reached for my phone to use my Droid Sky View to see what star or planet it was. There was NO planet in that area this morning. (( We spoke via telephone with this witness

Me and my son saw a falling object from about an eight of a mile away going down behind some trees. It was a clear and sunny day. It was deep red like the color and translucence of a vehicles brake light. It fell slowly. Slower than a normal object would fall. It was about the size of a dime at our distance. The time is an approximation. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

Murray, UT
I saw a white, pill shaped object at roughly 1,500-2,000ft traveling at slow speeds heading south down 13th east. I'm familiar with all flying commercial drone types as well as aircraft that are flown in the area and this matched none of those. It was pill shaped with what looked like a clear area in the center of the craft, the middle section was completely invisible, or it was some kind of glass type material. It looked about the size of a large sedan, completely shiny and white. I followed it on its path for 10 minutes asking bystanders what they thought. No one I asked had any idea as to what it was at all. This object also made no noise at all. I have frequently within the last 2 years seen Apache helicopters frequently performing "dive bombing" maneuvers above Salt Lake City. The choppers will fly back and forth performing what look like faux attack runs, only with much more exaggerated movement than what I have previously seen in a normal operation. There are also a number of mysterious black military choppers that fly over the city every once in a while due to Hill Air Force Base being within close proximity.
