Jefferson City, MO
Spiked ball looking craft with white lights at the end of the each spike. At first, we thought it was a very bright star in the distance. We were walking southward down on a public sidewalk and the craft was moving very slowly from the south toward the north. tI passed overhead at about a 30 degree angle. It was beautiful like a star moving across the sky. Observation time about 5 minutes total. No sound.

This wasn't a plane and it was very large but not in space it was in our clouds in our atmosphere, at least it was large enough to see clearly couldn't have been mistaken for a star it was close. The source of the report contacted our Center via telephone, and he assured us that the report is a serious-minded attempt to describe what he had seen. He sounded to us to be sincere. He stated that he would provied more details in an addendum. PD

Everett, PA
At approximately 2:15 am, in the Eastern sky. There where twelve perfectly spaced orbs. It looked like if you would have placed lights by putting one light on each side of every rung. They were that perfectly spaced apart. The orb/lights appeared one at a time. They appeared to be perfectly round and all the same size. They lasted for approximately 20 minutes and disappeared in reverse order that they appeared. They looked similar to the ones that were on your you tube video in Michigan. Except for the formation. (( Witness indicates that the date above is approximate. PD)

One night in 2017 as I was driving home As I drove Over a jaw bridge in New Jersey I saw a blacked out object floating in the sky as I was looking at it I didn’t hear any noise or see lights but I knew I saw something when I saw the jaw bridge worker out of his booth with binoculars and looked at what I Saw I knew I wasn’t going crazy because he saw exactly what I was looking at it was in either July or August of 2017 at around 11 at night. I am a very observant person and I was wondering if there’s anyway you guys can contact that jaw bridge to see if any worker made a report of a ufo or object because I know for a fact that he or she was looking at what I saw. It was flying under a thousand feet and was clearly visible I fly recreational drones so I am good with measuring height.

Eugene, OR
On July 17, 2017, at approximately 7:00 PM Pacific Time, my wife and I were driving South on Lorane Hwy in Eugene, OR. As we passed the Andrew Reasoner Wildlife Preserve, we observed to the North what appeared to be a commercial jetliner hovering over the hill, approximately one quarter mile from our position on the road, and maybe 500 feet off the ground. My wife noticed it first and exclaimed, “Look at that. That’s not moving at all.” My wife was convinced it was tethered to the ground, like a dirigible. As the driver, I was initially focused on the road, but was able to turn my head left and see the plane for about 15 seconds and it did not appear to be moving. I tried to convince myself that it was, just flying very slowly, but I saw nothing to indicate it was changing position. The plane was extremely low; from our vantage point, we could almost see the tops of the wing surface and we could easily see the color scheme on the side of the plane (a flash of orange writing on a white fuselage). Considering the Eugene airport is miles away to the North, and the plane was traveling, or hanging, East to West, I find no rational explanation as to why a giant commercial jetliner would be frozen, or possibly moving at a speed slower than our car. Although I’m relaying this as if we cognized everything immediately, it wasn’t until we rounded the next corner and the “plane” left our sight that we realized how incredibly odd what we had just witnessed was. We immediately turned the car around and were back where we first saw the plane in less than 30 seconds. It was gone and although we had a clear view all the way to the horizon--West, North and South--we could find no trace of the “plane” in our view. We couldn’t see clearly to the East, but it would have been impossible for the plane to head in that direction from the position it was in when it left our view and no chance we wouldn’t have seen it if it was even possible for it to instantaneously turn around. Considering the proximity of the “plane” to our car, we should have heard the sounds of the plane's engines, but there was only the noise of our tires on the road. The plane made no sound and didn’t show any exhaust gases. We both are well- familiar with the area and have never seen a commercial airliner flying so low, let alone at walking speed, if not completely frozen. It was one of the oddest things either one of us has ever experienced.

Was in Aldi supermarket middle os store.Small immaculate man was checking cans on shelf and shaking his head.Looked at me and said "Watch what you eat!"We walked and talked while I shopped.Last isle tall woman in robe had an empty cart in front of her blocking the isle.I shut my eyes and with all my inner strength pushed her cart out of the way.The small man went to her side and exclaimed."He pushed your cart away 3 times.She smiled and said why did you do that?After that she took over my mind and went inside my body.I became a little child climbing up inside my body and looking out my eyes.I could look down and they were several people inside my body and I was laughing like a little child.There were several dark skinned people all women who were picking up food and exzamining it.And they had been communicating with the women.The small man looked up at me and said "Watch what you eat!"Then walked away and I noticed he was wearing sa! ndells.He also wore a lime green sports shirt and light brown sports slacks..I left the store as fast as I could.And it was quite some time before I returned to normal.I quit telling this story because people natuarally thought I was loco.

Chandler, AZ
I am a truck driver who was driving in the state of Arizona on interstate 10 east bound between mile marker 181 and 182. I initially noticed one circular bright light in the sky swooping down over a field then back into the sky at a high rate of speed. As I noticed the light coming back around repeating the the same motion, I was closer to the object than before. As I noticed the object swoop down almost touching the field only one light was on, then a second, and then a third circular light appeared. Each light was evenly spaced in a straight line. As this was happening, I turned my head out the window and looked back as the object was ascending back up toward the sky. With the lights pointing up I was able to see the shape of this object. The shape of this object resembled a large rectangular wing similar to a wing on an old time wwII plane. The side of this object opposite of the three lights had the middle part of this wing purtrud out in the center of the wing like a tab. So that side was not completely straight, The other side with the lights was straight with three large white circular lights in a row. I attempted while watching this to take a picture but was unable to while driving. I have never seen anything like this during my 15 years on the road as a truck driver and wanted to report this and hopefully get a logical explanation on what this may have been. I have a sketch of this object as well that I can mail to you. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he seemed to us to be unusually eloquent in his description of the object, and quite sober-minded. We suspect that he is a highly capable, and highly reliable, witness. We have corrected the date to read July 14. PD

Pinon Hills, CA
Then as it slowly past me on my right it then dropped another blue light below the 1st one. Then, another blue light dropped fom the 2nd one and now there are 3 vertical blue lights moving thru the sky. Then the bottom blue light shifts behind the 2nd and the thing just faded out. ON MY WAY HOME I SAW IT AGAIN MOVING SLOW AND LOOKS CLOSER TO ME NOW HEADED THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION! I also saw it about the same time doing the same thing the night before last.

I was looking up to see the moon and was waiting for a cloud to move. When the moon came into view I also noticed a flickering light underneath the moon that was very bright and seemed to be still. I took a picture and brief video. (Please see attachments) Then when I looked at the object it looked like it was moving in my direction, so I hurried inside because I was feeling nervous. I put the video and picture on my computer and will include it. It just looks like a bright light from a distance but when I zoomed in on it in video and picture a horse shoe or u shaped light can be seen. Please let me know your thoughts. If its something more common like a plane, please let me know because it really freaked me out! Thanks!

Was driving at 14 mile road and Coolidge Highway. Saw a couple weird dots in the sky. Looked like a orange parking lot light but way up in the sky. Next thing I know, there are 15. All going in different directions (very slowly), going higher into the sky (assuming since the dots got smaller). I FaceTime my son and trying to focus he was able to see 2 dots in the sky and as I tried showing him, they all started disappearing.

We see this object almost every night, it appears in the south west and is very bright. It usually accompanies the moon but not always. To the naked eye, it looks like a star, only stars don't zip zag and rise and defend, and do circles from time to time. Sighting of Jupiter, we suspect. PD

Butte, MT
On July 4, 2017, at approximately 22:15 p.m (MDT) to the south in Butte Montana at about 3000 feet elevation I saw what I thought could be a flying object with lantern or incendiary device pulsating with orange flames. I watched it for a while as it hovered and then it disappeared or went behind the haze or thin clouds. My only thought was someone could start a forest fire on the East Ridge. I went indoors and returned to the outside a few minutes later and saw a different type of object (see other report) in about the same location at a slightly lower elevation. Around 22:35 p.m. I went to the front of my house and two square dim orange irregularly pulsating objects with a jagged or blurred top edge were moving slowly towards me (west to east) at a low altitude, I estimate at 100 feet. I had never seen or heard of anything like this before. They moved slowly and the first one suddenly disappeared but, before it disappeared, I started to take a video using my iPad. After a few seconds, my iPad quit working. The second object continued slowly in a slightly northeasterly direction until it was to my north and opposite where I was standing. It then made a slow 180 degree turn and disappeared. I could hear a low whooshing sound from the second one. When I tried to take a photo or video of the second object, my iPad camera didn’t function at all. In the short less than 5 second video of the first object, it appears as a hazy orange blob. With the naked eye it appeared clear, square shaped, and even on all but the top edge.

Was sitting at my sisters house near Lake Whatcom. Several different shaped craft appeared at different times. Some were shaped like a pearl necklace, others looked like drones. I have pictures of these craft; some 15 to 20 all together. I am in the process of having them copyrighted for publication. We have requested permission to look at the photos. PD

Florissant, MO
Saw a big bright red light with a straight line of smaller white lights behind it. It held a perfectly straight line for quite a while and perfectly still in place. Finally moved and the white lights slowly flexed as if in a breeze. It was as if it pivoted with the red light as the head. It made no sound we had the sunroof of the car open and watched it for five minutes, and yes it is the fourth of July. I would have said it was a helicopter but no sound, it was low enough to see each white light in line, also eventually y the “tail” blew as if a dog tail waging in slow motion. It was as if it were some kind of a kite, but it did not move at all for the longest time and the tail was perfectly straight for for most of the time. The white lights appeared to be on the same flat plane as the red light. parallel with the ground. “A dragon-fly” is how my wife and I both described it. Seemed to be over City Hall. It was not a firework, but a stationary object.

I tried to figure out if it was a drone, but I heard no noise and saw no lights. It traveled from the south in a straight line moving NNE. It disappeared over Lake Ponchatrain. The distance travelled had to be at least 2 miles. It was hard to estimate the height. It took approx. 1 minute to travel across the sky. I ran to get my camera, but the batteries were dead!!! Is it possible this was a drone? This is the oddest thing I've ever seen in the sky, and I'm an amateur astronomer. Hoping someone else might have seen it, because if you looked up around that time, there is NO WAY you could have missed it.

Galena, MD
We were driving down a country road, surrounded by corn fields, in Galena, Maryland, and in the night sky appeared a HUGE perfect square of the BRIGHTEST WHITE light. It flashed for about a second. Then it happened immediately three more times. There was either one single object, moving left to right, or four separate objects. Neither of us had ever seen anything like this before!
