2nd sighting. April 7th Beginning at 8:20 p.m. I sighted 9 UFOs within a two hour period. Each one of these UFOs appeared as a small orb of light that then dimmed revealing the craft. Most of them flew low and slow. They appear to be a little smaller than a helicopter. Two Flying East, two flying South, and, 5 Flying North. The first craft dimmed flew into the clouds then the clouds flashed for fraction of a second like lightning. Second craft dimmed its lights. Most interesting of the nine, the third and fourth craft we're flying parallel to one another. They were only flying a good few hundred feet. They admitted no sound whatsoever. Left one dimmed then the right one. The 5th craft a little further than the rest dimmed its lights. The sixth craft blinked then slowly fade into a light then dimmed back out. The last three flew in different directions at different times all dimmed out their lights. It almost seems as if they're aware that I'm watching them. Because they dim their lights seconds after I spot them.

There was variable cloud cover, which apparently made for good conditions for a sundog to form. I took two electronic photos with my iPhone (4G LTE, Verizon) just to casually document the sundog and did not look at my photos until the next day. Of course, I was surprised to see a luminous blue-green object in each of the photos. The camera date/time feature on the camera recorded April 7, 7:02 p.m. My guess is that the photos were snapped between ten and 30 seconds apart. Oddly, neither my wife nor I recall seeing the luminous object(s) with a naked eye while looking at the sundog—but the camera did! Photo one: taken through the living room window with part of the deck table visible. I cannot tell exactly where the object is relative to the white fence. It could be closer or a bit further way. The distance from the window to the fence was measured with a tape to be roughly 176 feet. The height of the fence is 5’8” top edge to bottom edge, and the top edge maintains about 5’10” above the ground. The approximate vertical displacement from the floor inside the house to the ground is about 28 inches. There is a stream about four feet wide between the lawn and the taller vegetation but is not discernable in the photos. Photo two: taken from the deck. A rough measurement from my approximate position on the deck to where the object appears to be in the photo is 73 feet. The deck is 15 inches above the ground. Zoom in on the photo two object: it seems to be in the process of forming or disintegrating. It seems to have a different configuration than in photo one. Note the “aura” in photo two. If the object(s) are one and the same in both photos, then it moved about 100 feet closer to me in the 10-30 seconds between photos. Was it aware of my wife and me? How long was the object around? What was it doing? Why were we unaware of it and not seeing it with a naked eye? This was not the first time that an unidentified object has appeared with a sundog photograph from our house. One appeared in a photo taken just after sunrise in early March 2019, with unseasonably cold, sub-zero temperatures outside. The object appeared as a planet-like figure to the right of the sundog in the distance, much smaller than the Moon. If you are interested, I could send you a photograph of this one also.

Miami, FL
We were walking our dog and saw a group of small, bright blue lights flying at low elevation horizontally above and in front of us and emitting a trail. They seemed to be flying together almost in a formation. Almost as soon as we saw them they started disappearing one by one quickly until they were gone. The background was blue evening sky. They seemed to be flying between 20-80 ft above the ground. They emitted no noise. Both me and my girlfriend saw them at the same time

New Middletown, IN
The sun had just went down and the sky was clear with just a few wispy clouds. It was still light out, dusk. My toddler son and I were looking at the full moon and for birds in the trees when I saw it. I had never seen a UFO or other sky phenomena before but I knew this was not a plane or star. I immediately sensed it was abnormal. Abnormal because of its brightness, size and type of light it emitted. I immediately grabbed my binoculars and watched it for the next 45 mins into total darkness. Within a few mins of watching it I also noticed Venus began to show up in the sky just a few degrees away (about the same height), so I had that to compare it to. The whole time I was observing the object it moved slowly away from venus toward Orion, specifically the belt. It was moving toward orion as Orion was "moving" toward the object. I observed this by standing in the same spot. No fast movements were ever observed. Desciption of the object: Size - When I first saw it the object was maybe the size of a golf ball (from my POV) if someone was like 10ft away and threw it up in the air. I had the sense that it was an object that was very high in the air and a good distance away. I never felt like it was "close". As the time went on it got smaller and seemed like the shape flattened out. Shape - When I viewed the object with binoculars it appeared spherical. Little doubt in my mind that it was not ball or sphere shaped. The shape became flattened or distorted as it moved away and got smaller. Light and Color - When I observed it at first with the naked eye, it had the familiar light color of a welders "spark, flame" (whatever its called) but did not hurt my eyes. Kind of a hot electric blue-white light. When I viewed through binoculars it was almost like it had a prism of colors in it like it was one color. It had an outline but was kind of undefined. It was like an "electric bubble". Really the best way to describe is "a perfect ball of energy". It got dimmer as time went on. Other observations: before I grabbed my binoculars I noticed for a second that it appeared to emit a greenish light, almost like a flame, on the top then on the side. That only lasted for a second. This initially made me think maybe it was a green light from a plane but of course it wasnt after further observation and behavior and seeing it through binoculars. Like I said I noticed venus nearby shortly after seeing the object. The object was much larger, much brighter than Venus. When I looked at Venus with binoculars or any other larger star later on, they kind of just look like a "pin prick". When I looked at this object with the binoculars, I knew I was looking at a three dimensional object. Of course this was at the time when Venus was the only thing observable other than the moon. I actually pulled up my SkyMap app to confirm and there are no stars that it could have been. I cannot stress enough how the object was a perfect sphere when observed through binoculars. This was not something I saw for 5 seconds and said UFO! I observed this for close to an hour straight. An entire dialogue played through my head trying to figure out what it was or at least disprove it being a ufo. I'm just a layman but theres no way it was a manmade object and I find it hard to believe it was some natural atmospheric phenomena based on how long it lasted. I really want to know what it was if it was in fact something like that. First time in my life Ive seen something I cant explain.

Bright Yellow object heading east bound at a pretty decent speed, no binky lights at all, just one solid color. Another object appeared heading north west bound for about 20 seconds then disappeared.

I noticed a bright white light through my blinds where the trees are thick behind my home. It was above the large cleared area in the trees. It is typically very dark there. I looked through my blinds and saw a light through the trees. It was an almost sphere like shape at times shining very bright and seemed to be hovering in one spot, but movement was noticeable as it hovered. I could hear a low humming sound. At times the light would appear to have a beam and other times it would fade and dissapear. When the light reappeared it would become very bright. It looked similar to a near full moon hovering lower than the tree tops, but it was not the moon.

It's April 5th 2020 at approximately 9:50 p.m. I step outside I look up at the night sky at first glance I think I see a helicopter. At closer inspection I noticed that it was a orange glowing sphere that was floating across the night sky very slowly. I quickly run in to grab my phone to record it. Aware that the craft might have its sights on me I quickly flip the light switch on and off for Enough time to see where my phone was. I grabbed my phone run back outside the very second I pointed my phone at the craft. The craft slowly began to fade into nothing. If there are aliens Among Us right now it would make sense for them to observe us right now because everybody is inside not looking up.

Calhoun, GA
At approx. 9pm, we were sitting around a campfire in our backyard. We live outside the city limits of Calhoun in the Sonoraville area. My property is located in the flight pattern of the Atlanta Airport so at any given time we can see several jets in the sky usually in the same altitude and patterns leaving Atlanta as well as arriving. I was observing the moon and stars when an orb shaped object came from over the tree line out into the open with a very unobstructed view. It was an off white glow and I called its attention to my son and two grandsons. It moved steadily and its light did not fluctuate. There was no sound and no vapor trail. I mention this as all the jets overhead are audible and with the moon being nearly full their vapor trails were visible at night. It was not moving at a high rate of speed but was lower than the usual jets that fly over. It was moving from North to south and when it entered the glow of the moonlight just seemed to vanish. ! I insisted it flew into a cloud but my kids all said there were no clouds. A minute or so later we observed a jet moving south in a similar pattern and it did not disappear when it passed the moon. Curious if anyone else saw this.

At 20:45 on April 6th, 2020, my father and I saw what looked like a star in the Western sky. It then became apparent that it wasn't a star or a satellite. It was omitting a glowing, steady, white light. What made us pay more attention was the fact that it was flying fast at a low elevation. It was traveling from Northwest to Southeast. We then heard the sound of an F-15, which is a common occurrence around where we live. It's a common trail that the Oregon Air National Guard flies their F-15s. It appeared as if the F-15 was attempting to intercept the craft. The craft did not change its speed, and headed South/ Southeast. The F-15 seemingly paced the craft until out of sight, below the horizon. The whole event lasted maybe two to three minutes. We didn't see either the F-15 or the craft again. My dad knew the sound of the F-15 and that is what alerted us to look for it. What was also odd was the fact that the F-15 was flying alone, because we almost always s! ee them flying in pairs.

I had taken my dog outside at my backyard. I looked up the night sky during the clear sky with a moonlight. I saw one white orb light without blinking. It was hovering slowing toward south for 5 minutes then it was disappeared. I believe it was UFO.

Kihei, HI
Sitting in my Jacuzzi at 2 o’clock in the afternoon, staring at a mostly clear sky, I see very clearly a white golf ball shape object hurtling across the sky. I watch with a feeling of satisfaction as it disappears into the clouds forming above Mt. Haleakala (10,000 feet elevation) my first thought was perhaps a drone, but I do have a drone that flies 30 mph. This was very different. I would estimate that at speed it would cover horizon to horizon In about one minute. I was wearing my two week old polarized prescription sunglasses and saw very clearly a golf ball shaped object that was perhaps the size of a Volkswagen beetle about 1 to 2 miles up in the sky. It was hurtling in a straight line with purpose. I am a dedicated Skywatcher, and this is the fourth questionable object I have seen since 1976.

I saw something blinking up in the sky with multicolor lights. After watching for a minute I got curious so I grabbed the binoculars. It was a clear sphere shape outlined in many quick flashing colors; green, red, white. It hovered in the distance for quite a while. It went further into the distance, southwest direction. It’s not my first time seeing something like this. My wife saw this one too, she came to the window and watched it with me.

There are at least 4 that have been in the night sky not moving since November 2019. Some hv multiple colors blinking. Red/blue/Orange. Two are very bright white lights that move around the inside the sphere with many lines. I can’t believe there are no reports as they are always in the sky.

With the naked eye, the object looked like a very large star or a planet. When zoomed in on a phone camera it looked like a sphere that was pivoting. On the first sighting (April 2, 2020), it had one black dot that would move around sporadically as if it were "looking around." On the second sighting (April 5, 2020), everything was the same except there were multiple black dots that seemed as though they were "looking around." The object itself didn't move, quickly at least, in space. It just spun in place. Each time, the placement in the sky (when I woke up later in the night to see) was in the same place as the moon would be in the sky at around 4:30. I have videos of both sightings.

Phoenix, AZ
Looking up I saw a extremely bright star in the West (slightly North) sky. I watched it for about 10 minutes and kept my eye on the three faint stars (2 above and 1 to the right) to check if it was moving, thinking it could be a possible plane, although I knew that the constant light and brightness wouldn't be a plane. I decided to take a video with commentary to post on my FB page to friends. That is the first video. The second and third are video after I honed in on it and finally enlarged the sphere to the phones maximum capacity. These video's are the result. It was approximately two hours of observation without the object moving at all (I kept the reference stars that were near in sight). I stepped into the house for about a 1/2 hour and when I went back out, it was gone. While I was watching there were 2 different planes in the vicinity flying by. The light was extremely bright and never changed throughout my observation. To the necked eye it looked li! ke a very big star with no pulsing at all. The pulsing (and some of the people that have viewed the video said it looked like it was rotating also), was not apparent until it was enlarged.

My kids were walking across the Broad St. Presbyterian church parking lot. They saw a floating orange-ish white glowing ball about the size of a soccer ball over the parking lot moving slightly back and forth. Two of my kids felt a very negative feeling then the orb disappeared. They got scared and ran home.

Moore, OH
Out walking my service dog with my parents whom were also walking their dogs when my dad noticed an orb close to the Moore water tower on 19th Street & Tower Drive. It was too high to be any radio or cell phone tower and it hovered with no sound. Once we got home I took a couple videos and zoomed in as far as the iPhone would allow and the object was actually bouncing around as it acted as if it would deliberately move out of your screens viewing. About 10:30 PM we went out to see if it was still there and it was but it had moved significantly lower as I had the water tower as reference. It finally went away about 11:30 PM which is when a helicopter coming from a different direction just happened to be flying nearby. Maybe they were looking for it? I don’t know but as a career military guy I know what I saw and have video and photo evidence of and there is nothing I know of that hovers in silence for several hours, moving slightly and producing itself ! as a ball of light.

I was looking out my window and saw a bright white sphere shaped object traveling somewhat fast enough to catch my attention. I thought it was a plane but in my area, they usually pass by in the opposite direction. I decided it was a bird since it was white but then the altitude did not match. Then the object, stopped mid air. I jumped closer to the window to see if I could get a better look and 3 more objects followed the first one. All had same shape, size and color. They positioned themselves in front of the first, in a straight line, also fixating their position mid air. Following that, the original object in a circular motion, moved in front of them. Then, copying what the first one did, they also, in a circular motion, moved in front of the first object. After this, they continued (all 4 objects) to move in a spiraling motion, like a carousel. Always moving N , and about 50 seconds after all of this happened, they went behind a cloud. I was ready to snap a picture if they emerged from behind the cloud but they never did.

Nairobi (Kenya), Kenya
I am a British expat living in Nairobi, Kenya. On 1 April (ignore the date!) I was looking up at a nearby building and saw something bright against clear, blue, sky in the distance. At first I thought it was the moon but it was too bright, too small and too low (albeit still high in the sky). I shouted to my wife who also saw it. I took about 20 photos with my 300mm lens (all ended up looking pretty much the same but I can send them if needed). You'll need to zoom in to see the image. Even though my wife also saw it I still checked and cleaned my lens. The object remained stationery throughout. After about 15-20 minutes I went indoors for about 10 minutes but when I went out again it had gone. Suitably intrigued ....Best Regards EM

My wife and I were taking our dogs outside from 2130-2145 on 3/31/2020. I looked up and saw an extremely high altitude object flying a linear flight path from ~240 degrees southwest to 60 degrees NE. I took note of a commercial aircraft flying substantially lower than the first object I saw, so I know what we saw we not a conventional aircraft. I pointed out the first object to my wife, who at first though it was an object in orbit.. as we have watched the ISS fly over before. The object was bright enough to be seen by the naked eye. We were watching it, and it blinked a few times, dimmed, and vanished. There was no cloud coverage at the time, it simply vanished. One object would not have been that big of a deal.. however, what happened next was certainly a big deal. My wife and I stood outside and watched 13 more object flying in linear flight paths, from three different origins and end points. I verified the flight paths using a compass on my phone. The o! bjects were flying equidistant, extremely high, just appeared as orbs of light. They all flickered, dimmed, and vanished at the same spots in the sky. There may have been more objects, but cloud coverage moved in and blocked our view of the sky. It was astonishing! I hope others saw them too.

I was leaving the Target store around 11:50am and walking towards my car when I heard a voice pop into my head that said "Hi" as I looked up ahead of my location to see two large metallic spheres flying in tandem nearly 50 feet above the road, moving at a normal clip (about 25mph). I yanked my LG smart phone out of my back pocket as the two spheres passed a cellular tower and a lookout tower to my left, rising higher into the air and continuing on a South/Southwest course. I was able to get a few pics and two very short videos of these orbs as they flew off in the distance. Not entirely sure where they originated from before I noticed them, but the voice in my head altered me to their presence. I can send you the pics and video files once you respond to this report. They are on my phone and on my Google Drive.
