Frisco, TX
On 2/1/2021 my daughter and I were driving west on Veneto Dr in Frisco TX when we saw 4 orange glowing lights in a single row formation in the sky coming from the NE. The lights were fast moving but also hovered at times. We pulled over on the residential street. I noticed a white suv had pulled over behind us. A man and his son were playing basketball outside their home and they had stopped and were also observing. The lights were low flying. There was a smaller airplane flying towards us coming from the SW in the distance but he was flying a much higher altitude than the unexplained lights. We got out of the car to view them. Just as the lights got directly in front of us, they begin to vanish one by one starting with the one in the lead, then the 2nd, 3rd and 4th. I yelled to the suv behind us “did you see that”? A woman yelled back “yes, there were 4 of them”. I asked her what was it and she replied UFO’s. I didn’t get to speak to the man and boy who were also watching. These were not planes, helicopters or anything I’ve ever seen in the sky. We are still trying to process what we saw. We did not record or take pictures because we were too stunned by what we were seeing.

Long Beach, CA
Bright light, similar to a star was observed up in the sky, this object was at about 5K high and remained static, in the same place for about 4 to 7 minutes. This happened on 01/30/2021 at around 2:25 pm over the city of Long Beach, California. Me and my friends had just finished playing soccer when i looked up in the sky and noticed the bright light, similar to a star completely static, i then told my friends about it and 3 of them were able to spot it as well. However, I was able to take a photograph of the object that minutes later disappeared, but could be used for evidence that it is an UFO.

I was out walking my dog, Khloe in the alley and it was a cold crisp night. We’d been outside for about 5 minutes and I was looking at Mars and then looking at Orion when something caught my eye. It was a blinking strobe-like light like the kind you see on airplanes that are very high in the sky. I thought to myself, this is a very high flying airplane, so I started watching it. It was about 70 degrees up and approximately due east and to the left of Orion but higher. It was headed towards me and I estimated it to be very high (a few miles high – like as high as an airplane that is at cruising altitude). Then I noticed that the white light was blinking three times, then off for a ½ second then the light was green and again blinking three times and then off and then a solid red light for about one second. I realized that this was the same pattern each time repeating I believe five times. I knew now it wasn’t an airplane because the lights just don’t t! urn colors like that – usually you see blinking white lights with a green and red light for each wing. Now, I’m thinking it’s a helicopter maybe as the police helicopter is usually flying around the area but not way up in the sky like this. I’ve now been observing this for about a minute. It seemed to stop now and was about 75 degrees up. That’s when it freaked me out. The last time it went through the white, green and then red on sequence, as the light was still red, it suddenly-and to my surprise-shot off to the right and down at about a 120 degree angle at an impossible speed for an airplane or anything else for that matter. It was now behind the trees that are off to the right and I could not see it. I moved to the right and left about 20 paces to get a clear view and it was simply gone. Also about this time, my dog started barking very loudly like she would if there was someone at the door. Now I’m spooked and a little scared. I’m convinced what I saw was not ! something conventional like a plane or a helicopter because I ! know wha t they look like and how they maneuver in the sky. This thing darted down and over in a split second. When I saw this – it didn’t register right away but then I realized my god I’ve just seen something very very weird.

Norristown, PA
I saw two lights that looked like stars or aircraft flying in formation to the northwest when I walked outside to at around 5:55 am EST. I observed them for a minute trying to figure out what the were, thinking military craft because I could see they were slowly moving in formation. I leaned over (to put something down) looked up again and they were completely gone. They were slightly bluish like Sirius or Venus and about the brightness of Venus, or slightly less bright. This is my first actual UFO sighting.

Heavener, OK
I was traveling north on hwy 59 in Heavener, Oklahoma when the sighting occurred A large blueish white light appeared in the sky towards the west. I started to point out what I thought was a falling star at the same time as my friend was asking me if I saw the light. We quickly realized it was not "shooting star" it appeared to stay stationary for about 30 seconds, then the light appeared to accelerate toward the ground and vanished. This light/object was very large, We saw planes shortly after, and the lights on planes at a mile away were just tiny flecks of light compared to the object we witnessed

Sioux City, IA
I woke in the night and the light outside seemed bright. We have large West facing windows in the living room, I had fallen asleep on the couch. I looked out the window, just saw the bright yellow moon, which explained the brightness. But then, a very large red light appeared in the distance. It was nearly the size of the moon, and yet, far away enough I knew it wasn't over any of the houses in our neighborhood. It would occasionally turn white, and become much smaller, then then flare back into red. For as far away as it had to be, it was moving really quickly. It paused twice and held position. I thought perhaps it was a helicopter, but the light was so large, if it was that close I would have heard it. It was traveling north, and eventually moved up until I couldn't see it any longer.

Anacortes and Coupeville, WA
Two lights far apart. Unlike any light from any aircraft seen before. Near a Navy air base, but not like anything ever has been flown over or seen in the distance. They were round and just outside the clouds. Seen 30 miles away from each other at the same time; two family members saw the same lights and describe their disappearance.

I was taking my dog out to go potty when I glanced up at the sky to admire the constellation Orion and saw a small reddish light moving southwest. Due to its apparent altitude, I assumed it was the International Space Station, so I excitedly pulled up the stargazing app on my phone to confirm my suspicion. When the app failed to identify the light, I watched it until it disappeared over the treeline, trying to figure out what it was. After it vanished from sight, I took my dog into the backyard to do her business, and was surprised to see another light — this one much larger than the first, bright white, and moving northeast. I looked for the flashing red and green lights that would identify the light as a helicopter or airplane, but nothing. I also heard no sound. I pulled up my trusty stargazing app again to see if THIS was the ISS, but it was not. Thinking quickly, I pulled up the camera on my phone and filmed the light until it, too, vanished behind the! treeline. This second object was in view for maybe 30 seconds, and the whole encounter was maybe shortly over a minute. My dog did not respond to either object, but to be fair, she was busy.

New Bern, NC
Just came back in, witnessed 3 lights high in the sky around the 10 o'clock position. They did not appear to be moving, their were only 3, I know I had heard about people reporting satellites in the sky, but when I checked the web the ones they were reporting were a string, and according to the pictures there were a lot more than just three. That's the only reason I am reporting these. They did not appear to be moving at all. I had to come in, they may be gone now. I went back out, could barely make them out some lights clouds in the sky. Took a small movie and picked up other lights, they appear to be blinking, and possibly moving farther away. I checked the aircraft radar for the US and nothing was flying even close to my location.

Saint Johns, FL
On our nightly walk at 20:05 EST in Saint Johns, Florida (32259), we saw a very fast moving, white light strobing flying object, there were no other colors witnessed. There was no sound and it was traveling at approximately 100 feet from the ground, east toward the Atlantic ocean. We live in the area of Naval Air Station Jacksonville, and can tell the difference between planes and helicopters. This object was moving too fast to be a helicopter, and made no sound at all. It also did not have any other lights to indicate a plane flying at night. The other 2 witnesses have 40+ years of experience as Naval Aircrewman on the P-3 Orion.

Ramona, OK
Stepped onto the porch, when I noticed a rather intense light display on the northern horizon. Three amber colored lights, each of them star-shaped, hung just above the tree tops. This was along the edge of the property line, which adjoined the empty lot. Of the three lights, the star in the center appeared as if it were brighter, if not larger, than its companions to the left and right. Orange, gold, yellow, the lights shimmered in the breeze. Although, they didn’t appear to sway in the wind, which was considerably less than it had been earlier, when it was gusty. The sky was mostly clear.

A bright ball of light suddenly appeared around 80 or 90 feet in the air above our apartment complex it was stationary. It was big and bright enough to light up our apartment room a block away. It would flash it's light on and off multiple times. Being super bright then 100% pitch dark and it was close enough to is that when it would turn off we should have been able to see a craft or outline of what it was but we were not able to see any thing. It then turned it back on after a few flashes and slowly descended into a wooded area right below where it was hoovering. We waited an hour to see if it would return or leave but saw nothing else.

The object was a very bright light like a close planet then went very dim and then bright again it was just hovering then flew across the sky and stop the object kept going from the brightest light in the sky to very dim still hovering then went strait down till you couldn't see it then back up that's when I got video and moments later took off in the sky I have a short video. I'm a very big non believer but now I am.

Lights on the ridge near KSOX Doppler Radar Tower and Black Star Canyon. Unusual lights high in the sky that seemed to be a small line of blinking lights. Viewed through 2nd story apartment window. Noticed it was not moving closer or further away as I was in the kitchen and where the lights were coming from were high at the very top of the ridge. Often just a single light but sporadic moments of multiple lights, sometimes fading in and out. One time 3 lights in equal distance from each other were twinkling on. Then later it was two lights but closer together. At the brightest intensity, it was quite bright. Not unlike when you'd see an airliner's lights directly on. Activity ceased around 11:35pm. The ridge is dark now.

As I sat in my car facing SE, I saw a single orange light appear far in skyline. Then an additional orange light appeared adjacent to it at maybe a 45 degree slope. Then the 3rd and then 4th lights appeared, all uniformly slanting down. And then all four lights disappeared at the same time. My coworker who just left our work saw the same thing a half mile away.

Saw what at first appeared to be a shooting star. Then the light which appeared to be the brightest, began unusual movements such as loops, concentric circles. It remained in a confined area. No sound. Unable to record any image. The light was bright enough to still be seen at 6:50

Greenfield, OH
Looked to north after getting out of car at 7:00 p.m. Well after dark, 36 degrees F. and 53% humidity. Seen ghostly cloud formation that I assumed was northern lights. Cloud stretched across northern horizon about 30 degrees (of 90) directly due north in the northern quadrant of sky. It reminded me of a jellyfish with wispy cloud-like tendrils hanging down from it. The main body of the cloud did not appear to move itself but the tendrils hanging beneath appeared to shift about and move slowly as if they were suspended in flowing water. I remark that as I witnessed it I noticed that I could hear dogs barking for miles around within the silence of the rural setting. I have since checked space weather and there were no aurora forecast.

Salt Lake City, UT
I was heading west on 4500 South 2300 East at approximately 7:30 a.m., noticed an object hovering in the sky to the west, I assumed was a helicopter. The sky was dark and a little cloudy at that time so the orange was noticeable in the distance. I kept seeing it as I headed west (going to State Street) and wondered why it wasn't moving at all if it was indeed a helicopter. I started to constantly watch it, while keeping an eye on traffic. It did not move, it was hovering in place. I don't know what shape the object was but 2 distinct orange lights, not blinking, just constant. I looked away for about 10 seconds as my view was blocked suddenly. When I looked again it was gone. I searched the sky for it and couldn't see it anywhere. There were other cars on the road. Not sure if any of them noticed this or not.
