Custer, SD
There was no sound in the sky and it was a very clear night with lots of stars. It was definitely not a shooting star or a satellite. Four of us all saw the same moving object at the same time.

Pimpri-Chinchwad, MAHARASH · India
Around 9.24 pm , when I was talking with my mother I looked up at sky and I saw a formation of lights below clouds (slightly cloudy) that formation was of size of football field or can say slightly bigger than football field, there was no sound coming from that . when me and my mother watching it, it took U turn , and went into clouds . We saw it very closely but still I can't describe its shape but that thing definitely had shape , mom said it was rectangular, but I am not sure. For me it looked like a previous formation that I saw ( I saw same kind of formation a month ago). When it went into clouds I saw 2 aeroplanes I guess chasing it. Formation had yellow ,red lights and may be other lights too. I am not sure but definitely it has yellow and red light.

Columbus, OH
Looking directly straight up into the clear blue sky with a few cirrus clouds, I originally spotted (3) white round objects ‘dancing’ erratically around one another overhead, at cirrus cloud level. I was able to capture 2 of the objects in photos and video and witnessed this event for nearly 2 minutes with my 20/15 vision. Please be sure to view in high-resolution in a completely dark area with eyes fully adjusted to the lighting to view maximum visual detail. Additional photos are available. Video and images captured using a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G.

Carlsbad, CA
Viewed the sighting off of the coast where I live. It was above the ocean and had multiple lights that branched into several others all in the same area at best I would guess 2 miles apart. They hovered over the ocean and would disappear and then come back to the main

About 5 white lights in a formation moving extremely fast. I only saw for a split second. They were moving west towards the Gulf of Mexico. I was sitting in lanai with my cat across from me in chair. I was looking north as objects were moving west.

Forest Grove, OR
Clear afternoon, was getting warm and I noticed what I thought were birds, 7 of them flying in formation of sorts. These objects were high altitude and can only be seen using my Oakley Polorized Prism sunglasses, otherwise was not visible, I have 2 witnesses to verify this. I began to record with my phone (and sunglasses) and notice they reflected sun glare, and certainly no birds. The local airport was alerted and tower control could not identify the craft either. Here is a video, you decide.

We were having a drink in my basement bar and my neighbor had his Ring Camera alert him with the video I provided. We have no explanation of what we see in this video.

Ottawa, IL
I was driving on i-80 east with a co-worker nearing Ottawa IL, when I saw three bright white dots in the sky. They were in a formation of a perfect triangle. At first I thought it might br planes but they remained apparently motionless as we kept driving. I asked my coworker what he thought they were and he had noticed them before I pointed them out. He couldn't give any guesses and tried to take a picture but his phone camera is not very good. After driving and watching for a few minutes, we noticed a 4th bright white light appear, the triangle broke patern into more of a circle or oval then started rotating. This was the first I seen any of the dots move at all. This whole time I wasn't paying attention to exit signs and almost missed my exit at Ottawa. I got over and got off but when I looked back up they were gone. I wish I wasn't driving because my phone may have been able to capture something of it. I believe cars around us saw it as well, because when I looked at my speedometer before I got off the highway we were all going 15 under the speed limit. The weirdest part and I wasn't going to mention at first was I thought we were another 25 minutes away from Ottawa and when I looked up we were almost passed it, time went by super fast. And a kind of dark vision in my eyes from staring at those lights, kind of like getting a direct glimpse of the sun makes the background darker.

I could not see anything other than a large cluster of bright white lights. They were moving in a common direction and also seemed to be churning around among themselves. I was unable to capture them before they disappeared behind and past the tree line. They were low, maybe 100 feet up and made no sound.

3 metallic objects in triangle formation in bright sunny sky. Did not move for 3 minutes. Disrupted clouds in triangle shape. When I tried to take mobile phone picture, they were gone as I zoomed in. They did not return for the next 30 min I was there looking.

Cabo San Lucas · Mexico
We were at the top of Garza Blanca hotel taking a picture of the scenery of the hotel from the rooftop. We took about 4 photos from where we were standing and when we looked back at the photos, we noticed a formation in one of the photos that wasn’t in any of the other ones. We looked in the sky but didn’t see anything.

Stated above. Perhaps objects were satellites, but they seemed to be flying in circles before converging.

Approximately 4am me and my friend were stargazing on my deck. It was an exceptionally clear morning, you could faintly make out the band's of the Milky Way. I noticed one white light traveling at medium speed above Blue Mountain/Linden, Virginia. Suddenly 4 more white lights, no sound, no strobes or flashing lights, appeared to be following the same flight path except the first was obviously a lead object/further ahead with more space. The objects were flying from Southwest to Northeast in a straight line around 4am. Even "if" these were just airplanes, if you all have any knowledge as you what exactly they were, I greatly appreciate any input

It moved almost like lights were attached to the end of a helicopters wings but wayyyy to high in the sky and fast to possibly be a helicopter plus it was silent. I thought it was really really cool

Emmaus, PA
I am currently a college student and the other observer, my mother, is a newspaper reporter with a college degree. My mom and I went outside to observe the space station, but instead of that, we saw 4 bright orange orbs float horizontally across the sky in a perfect upside-down kite formation. When the first formation was almost out of sight, another orange orb appeared far behind the others, following the same pathing. They were completely silent.

Aquia, VA
4 lights in an amber color. Moving in perfect unison. Rolled down my window and they seemed to be silent. At first I thought maybe military drones because this was near quantico marine base. But they just gave off a really Erie feeling. As they passed one of them disappeared but you can still see the other 3 were flying in perfect unison and form.

I was sitting on my deck in my backyard lastnight. You will here my water fountain running in the background i also have a large pool in my backyard. In this video you'll see that the object changes shape "square" multiple times, it went from a white ball of light to multiple colors and shapes. I really can't explain more it showed itself and was moving around like no plane I've ever saw before, there is a part in the footage you will see a plane flying by the object. I have no other explanation of what I saw the video pretty much explains it. I can zoom in on the video with my phone it's incredible and unexplained. Any info would be helpful of what you think it is. Also this is not the first time ive seen activity in this area. Thanks.

Fitzwilliam, NH
Two flying horizontally shaped straight objects each with six evenly spaced orbs fly in tandem towards camera while keeping stationary formation and then move away fast and together in manner unlike a bird or insect. I saw this by way of a movement notification from Ring camera system recorded and posted to my phone with exact time of movement indicated. I am not currently at the location. See video at 4:03.14 to 4:03.21
