I was waking my dog late in the evening and I was watching the sky because it was a clear night. I saw a satellite, I saw three airplanes. At some point, I saw a white light blinking above me, around 150 meters from the ground. I thought it was an airplane. But I kept looking at it, and then I realised that it was a circle. Next to it was another circle and they blinked continuously but not synchronous in a circle... So because those 2 white circles were moving in the same speed, I thought it must be ine enormous flying object. I did not see a shape, I would rather say that there was a aura or something around it, so you could have guessed the size. It did not make ANY noise. Of course I did not have my phone with me, so when the object was out of my sight, I ran home like a crazy person and grabbed my phone to call my boyfriend and my mom. Nobody answered, so I tried to follow the flying object but I couldn't find it anymore. Instead, I saw a white light flash in the distance like theres a thunderstorm coming up, even though the whole evening/ night there was no storm. Maybe coincidence, maybe not I really don't know. I made a foto later of the place in the sky where I saw it and drew MYSELF the size of the circles on the foto via my phone. Is there such a flying object known? Or is it really unexplainable? I have never seen anything like this, and I do believe in extraterrestrial beings... PS.: 2 days before this, I saw something else, please contact me if you are interested. It was not really an flying object, more like geometric bright green objects hanging in the sky above our garden (very low, maybe 3 meters above the ground) and disappearing after 2 seconds) My boyfriend saw it as well... we were looking outside from our living room.

Oxnard, CA
I live very near Point Mugu Naval Base. Walking westbound on Woolley Rd from offshore on a Sunday night I approached Victoria Ave, a walk I've made many times at night. This particular night though I was going to Ross's to get some new shoes, it was now 9:40pm and they closed at 10pm. I still had a 15 minute walk to get there. So I could only observe the lights for a minute. After a minute they appeared not to be any closer, but stationary. I know the night sky to the west from that location. These were unusual. I have been an aviation enthusiast since I was flushing cloth diapers down the toilet then watching dad snake it, lol. There was absolutely no wind that night and the flight path they were on was highly unusual for Oxnard airport whos tower is unmanned at night and the downwind leg of the flight path in 0 windspeed conditions is to the east. Typically anything landing there that time of night are things like Gulfstream jets and such and fly straight in on final approach. The downwind leg takes aircraft rite down the middle of Taffrail Lane + or - a little north/south deviation of my house location. The altitude of an aircraft as it passes over my street & house when you're in the downwind leg of the pattern would be 850' and is typical of any civilian airport. Since this is most definitely not a flight path military aircraft follow and I wasn't sure what to make of them at the time, I moved on. I left Ross's on Channel Islands Blvd at 10:05pm and made it back to the same viewing location of the night sky from Victoria & Woolley Rd where I initially seen them and they were still there and hadn't seemed to move at all. I continued to watch them from that location for about a minute and continued East down Woolley Rd toward the street just before Offshore, but this time I walked on the Northside of Woolley Rd so I could keep the lights in sight. These were not glowing orbs or behaving erratically in any way. I wasn't going eastbound long on Woolley when I could see that they were clearly getting closer now. Their distance from me when stationary was 2-4 miles as they were significantly brighter than the stars and weren't very high in the sky. It was now about 10:20pm. Virtually everything in this town shuts down at 10pm especially everything South of Woolley, especially to the east. Now they were about to pass directly overhead and I was only about 500-600' from my house on Taffrail Lane and standing on the sidewalk approximately 100' west of Offshore. I Estimated 65mph ground speed, winds were at 0mph, I faintly heard one vehicle in the distance, but only for a moment. The time they took to pass over me was much longer than the cars interuption of the silence. As they passed overhead they made no sound whatsoever. Believe me I was listening hard. I can't hear an aircraft in the sky and not look up and am always looking up. Anyways, the whole time during their approach I'm looking for navigation lights & strobes and see nothing. All I see is glare. A very bright glare. I've spent much time at night at the end of the runway at Nellis Air Force Base in Vegas, these lights were much brighter than aircraft landing lights. The four UAP'S were traveling inline with about 100 yards of separation. One behind the other. I'm diligently looking at this first craft and the 3 other craft following it. All displaying the exact same characteristics, glare. No navigation lights or strobes can be seen at anytime during the entire event. As the leading craft passes over I see 3 very bright lights, one at the front preventing any observance of detail then a second light of the same intensity further obstructing any kind of observance as I was now looking straight up at what I could now at least tell what was the middle of it's bottom and the 3rd light at the rear coming into view and having the same intensity as the first two and all preventing any observance of the craft they belonged to. Remember I told you how quiet the night was, you could've heard a cricket fart. All joking aside, these things made absolutely no sound whatsoever and my hearing is fine. These things were the size of a two story house easy and only 850' above me. As the 2nd craft was overhead the first made a gradual turn to the North and out over the city. It maintained this turn until it had made a full circle and came up behind the fourth craft and passed over me again. The sky's were clear and as the lead craft first started to circle around back to the rear of the fourth I was finally able to get a slight glimpse of it's shape, but it was very slight and the other three were still passing over so I was dealing with their glare at the same time. Still no navigation lights, red or green and no strobes. I watched the four of them as they continued East 3-4 miles then turned right into Point Mugu's airspace where I lost sight of them as houses and various two story structures now blocked my view from where I stood on Taffrail Lane just a 100' West of Offshore. To me this is the military hiding it's operation of a fleet of at least for craft with some sort of propulsion that is completely silent. I will gladly submit to any kind of testing, hypnosis, psychiatric, lie detector, sodium pentothal or whatever. People want answer's and what I seen is to me highly anomalous of any UAP/UFO reports I've ever heard and their happening within site of a public street and apparently going to land at Point Mugu Naval Base where for years testing of top secret technology has gone on. I'm familiar with this as I grew up here where my father was assigned to the USS Norton Sound 58'-62' and was part of "Project Argus". He was on the ship with Dr. Van Allen when they were proving the existence of the radiation belt and exploring ways to combat against EMP's. I only learned of my father's involvement in Project Argus after it was declassified and he had died from the cancer. He never spoke of his time in the Navy while he was alive and declassification took place after his death. Thank you for your time.

I was in my backyard looking up at a clear night sky (rarely seen here during this time of year) when I saw an extremely bright object shoot across a portion of the sky, then disappear. It moved faster than any plane would be able to move

McKinney, TX
I"m a 15-year resident in this part of Texas, my home sits upon a hill overlooking miles of Texas terrain, I'm familiar with everything in the night sky as I always stand and watch aircraft go in and out of DFW. Last night there appeared a glowing green to red object stationary in the night sky, then it would move from one location in a straight line, with no sound what so ever, then ascend straight up, stop, then descend to almost ground level. It would rise again slowly move in westardly direction as if it was looking for something.I'm a disabled veteran photographer who saw and document this same event while stationed at Wurtsmith AFB, Oscoda Mich in 1974. Myself, SSgt Lee and MSgt Kerns witnessed and photographed 5 such hovering objects over the flightline glowing green to red as this one did. I considered this to be an observation craft then, and judging from this mornings sighting, this was the same type craft.

I was looking out if my bedroom window last night to see the moon because it looked like two moon’s maybe three. I was taking pictures of it and videos. I did not notice the flying object until I watched the video this evening 3/8/23

I was sitting in my living room when I noticed a very bright light towards the west. At first I thought it was Jupiter or Venus. Then I realized it was under the dark cloud layer. There was still a sliver of light on the western horizon. The object sparkled with several colors. I retrieved my binoculars, but couldn't make out the size or shape of the object. It was stationary for a while. It appeared to be over the Holston Army Ammunition Plant which is across the Holston River from my neighborhood. After a while it began slowly approaching my location. I took my binoculars and went to the front porch. Here I observed several variously-colored lights. I noted a large red light that appeared on the bottom. This bright red light was constant. As it got closer I couldn't understand what shape it was. It continued over my house and I lost sight of it. One thing that really stuck out in my mind was the absence of a anti-collision or beacon lights, which are required and strobe a brilliant white light visible for at least 20 miles. The object seemed compact and to have some thickness. The colored lights were at the edges. No noise, no trail, moved in a straight line.

Driving home saw a Green light jetting across the sky, then it just disappeared into a white “portal”. It was going so fast, and it seemed like it disappeared like when ships go into “Hyperspace” in Star wars. It happened Eastbound on the US-60 around 6:52pm. It looked like a green exhaust trail. There we’re tons of people on the road. I cant be the only one to have seen it.

I live near JFK, so airplanes fly by often. On this morning, I was looking out and noticed a line of bright lights in a direction that airplanes NEVER come from. I started recording and witnessed 6 objects, one by one, come up from the tree line, hover for a couple minutes, and follow the same path until out of my view. The objects were too bright for me to make out a shape, but as one of them was nearly out of view, I was able to see it from the side, and it was HUGE. I have the video, but the file is too large to upload here. Airplanes don't hover and do not come from that direction, and helicopters are NOT as large as the object I saw.

I know that you do not want pictures, but the silver like colored image in my picture appears to be hidden or possibly hiding in the clouds. I was taking pictures of clouds from my back window which faces west toward the SF Bay direction and the figure appears to be using the clouds as cover—that is my guess. I attached a picture which is in the upper right hand size above the corner of the garage. [NUFORC annotation: Bird - Possible]

On 4th of March i was travelling from Palma In Ryan Air Flight which departed from Palma de Mallorca at around 9:00 am in the morning. Between 10:10 to 10:30 am i was looking outside the window and i saw something in black appeared it was a kind of object with two thread or tails .. Initially in thought its some kind of smoke but it then it moved upwards very fast.. means really fast. Then this Triangle shaped object became flat and then moved down and came back up.....as i was continuously watching it. It became still as if its a cloud of back colour. Now after 15-20 minutes it again appeared and pattern was same. just at the last moment it clicked into my mind to make a video. I am uploading the video as well. The passenger sitting at my back seat also saw this and we spoke about this.. Even he showed it to his wife but again they were not sure what it was .. and their comments were as if could be an alien and then we laughed. I think i should report this but again am not sure what it was.. I hope reporting this video will not cause any trouble for me..

Farmville, VA
We had observed 2 nights ago multiple objects with flashing red, green, blue and white lights moving erratically in the sky. Last night we saw 2 white spheres in the same general location but they didn't appear to be moving so we dismissed that sighting. Tonight we again saw the colored lights in the same westerly direction from our position but could only see one and it was at a considerably higher elevation than our previous sighting. It appeared to be a bit farther away also but we could still note the erratic movements that were unlike any normal airplane or helicopter.

I was in my home and looked out my front door and observed 2 lighted objects in the western sky. This is a view I have daily and the 2 objects were new to me. At first, I thought they might be stationary helicopters, although I couldn't hear any noise. I watched through the door for a few minutes thinking that maybe they were moving either directly toward or away from me, but they didn't move. I thought that maybe the 2 panes of glass I was looking through might be distorting the light somehow, so I went outside to get a better view and try to hear if they might be helicopters. No noise, nor any movement. I took a photo and video with my cell, but that didn't prove very useful. I went back in the house and told my wife about it, and she observed them as well. I then decided to put on some warmer clothes and went across the street where I could get a better view. The objects didn't move, although I did lose sight of them when they either went dark or were obscured by clouds. This happened a few times. I called the local police at 7:00 PM to see if they were aware of anything unusual in the sky. They were not, and we did talk briefly about Venus & Jupiter. I continued to watch for another 10 minutes, more or less, until clouds moved in and completely obscured my view, so I went back inside. Both objects could be best described as something akin to a lighted stick man. They appeared to be more like a structure with long straight poles with white lights on them. A main pole or shaft down the middle, with appendages sticking out from them. Sort of rectangular, if you connected the dots of the lighted appendages. Nothing round, like a typical planet. The shapes were certainly not planet-like, unless for some reason, atmospheric conditions were playing games with what we were looking at. So I don’t believe they were planets, but I can’t really account for what I saw either. I’m hoping that someone else may have seen something as well. Thanks for your time. Jupiter and Venus

It’s night here, so all we can see are two lights and they are not moving at all. My neighbor reported it to police and was told that they are getting many reports of it. Whatever it is is completely stationary. Jupiter and Venus

Saw 2 lights in the sky while getting dropped off at home sat there and watched for about 5 minutes took these 2 photos. After getting dropped off lost sight of the lights but the driver on the way home said that he could see them and they were slowly moving little bits at a time it. Would move stop move stop.

I took more pictures, but the one of thems shows a strange phenomenon. I do not speak English vers well. As if the camera had shot it in a different position. it can be seen as it accelerates, both in front of and behind the object. there is no such phenomenon in the other photos.

Right now, I see 2 lights attached to some sort of craft that is sitting in the sky above Sherman Oaks. It has not moved for 43 minutes. There is no noise that would identify it as a helicopter. It is just sitting out there.

2 star-like objects very close together not moving but there was too much cloud cover to see other stars. Slightly blinking, disappeared after watching for about an hour. Saw planes near lights. Seemed stationary in nature but they disappeared after we tracked them for about an hour. Jupiter and Venus

Maquoketa, IA
Saw when leaving Oxford Junction, IA almost looked like it followed us to Maquoketa. Too big to be a drone. Thought it was a helicopter at first but no noise came from it and it was very still hovering. Overheard other people talking on the phone about seeing it as well. Went inside for an hour and came back out and it was gone Couldn't see the actual shape of the object in the dark, just the lights. Jupiter and Venus

The object was too far away to determine it's shape but had multiple red, green and blue lights flashing and the craft moved in a very irradic fashion. Sometimes still and then quickly moving in a zig-zag fashion unlike the movement of a normal aircraft or helicopter. We observed additional similar light groups that were spaced out and further away from us. It is now almost 1 am and we still see them, the closest one having moved a considerable distance from where we first observed it.

Irving, TX
I was with my sibling when I wanted to take a photo of the sunset sky. I didn’t review the photos till the following day. I didn’t observe them directly as it happened until I was reviewing some photos and realized that one photo had two odd lights in the sky that the other photos did not have around the same cloud pattern. The photos were one minute apart and the objects when zoomed in look very much like the stuff you’d expect to see with a flying saucer including what looks like a round shape on top of one of the UFOs.
