Witnessed 3-4 UAP with varying flight patterns (left-right, up-down). Lights would brighten then dim. 1 larger ship, 2-3 smaller orbs

While on DL975 from New York to Atlanta on 10/7/24, I witnessed Racetrack UAP above Asheville, NC starting at 10:16pm EST and ending at approximately 10:30pm. There were at least 2 smaller light orbs (possibly metallic orbs witnessed by U.S. government, this reminded me of the other Racetrack UAP seen by pilots). There appeared to be a larger craft that was being surrounded/escorted by the smaller light orbs. I captured a few video clips of the UAP showing the changes in light and direction. The UAP would brighten to a strong white light then fade out of view. The large craft/mothership was the brightest of the group during peak luminosity. The UAP moved faster both vertically and horizontally than surrounding aircraft. It is easier to view the UAP when they are dim by using a Negative filter over the videos. The 10:21pm video clip includes the pilot announcing the flight's descent and it's possible that you can hear him reacting to the UAP as they appear. There is a slight hesitation in his speech and voice crack as one of the UAP brightens.

The best clip is the 10:26pm clip and the picture was clipped from the 1:06 timestamp. The light source on the right side of the picture is definitely a plane (possibly N140SX). Flight navigation lights are clearly visible on the plane. The green streak in the photo is the aircraft's wing (clearly visible in videos). The light sources on the left side of the picture are the UAP. I have attempted to verify if the light sources were helicopters or military aircraft using Flight-radar, but it does not appear that there were other aircraft making the movements that I witnessed or flying in the target area.

Before the flight, I hoped I would see UAP over Asheville as I had assumed ET would be interested in military operations and disaster recovery in the Asheville area along with Hurricane Milton in the Gulf.

Videos were filmed on iPhone 12. Flight tracker: https://www.flightradar24.com/2024-10-08/02:22/20x/DAL975/3771d423

This is my first sighting, but a close family member had a previous sighting of a glowing orange, triangle shaped UFO in Long Island, New York in 1974. They were 15 years old when they witnessed a glowing orange, triangle UFO. They are sitting with a few friends on the bleachers at their high school football stadium. The group look out into the distance and the entire group sees the UFO. Possibly 10-20 miles out. It is oriented vertically. It remains motionless in the air as the group looks at it. Then the UFO instantaneously accelerated off into the distance. It appeared to instantly vanish due to its speed.

I was unable to load the 10:16pm clip, getting an error when loading it.

Ridiculously massive cigar shaped UFO spotted flying at night

Me and my 2 buddies were walking at night on the dirt road behind my house (very usual of us it's how we catch up) the dirt road is surrounded by fields so we can see for a long distance. Anyways we stop momentarily look up in the sky and we all 3 see it at the same time. It was a massive I mean massive grey cigar shaped object. It was flying very fast but not too fast for us to track it with our eyes. The object had no lights at all, which threw me off because planes have lights. The object made no sound nor had a sonic boom. You could tell the object was very high in the sky, but it still took up so much space. We watched the object for about 5-10 seconds and then we could no longer see it. It wasn't like it accelerated or anything. The weird thing is it really didn't seem to just disappear either. I know that last part doesn't make much sense but it was really just gone.

When I put in the size don't assume I'm kidding or making this up. I have nothing of relatable size to scale it to. If it were on a flight line I genuinely believe it would take up almost the entire thing. This is the weirdest thing I've ever seen. The fact that my buddies also saw it solidified I wasn't hallucinating.

We still walk the road to this day and every time we get to where we saw it we look in the sky. This happened about two years ago. I just found this website and was like hey I can put our sighting on there. Feel free to contact me by phone email is a hit or miss with me.

Duration: 3-5 minutes
No of observers: 3

Location: Flat Rock, MI, USA
Location details: Suburb area with lower light pollution, no clouds/obstructions in the sky ((Starlink satellites??))

Shape: Cigar
Explanation: Starlink - Certain
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Left a trail

Saw an amber string of lights fly west to east at airliner altitude, then seemingly faded into a perfectly clear night sky.

Saw a long singular light string in the distance in the western sky not far above the horizon. Appeared an off white light, like a car headlight color. The object continued moving across from west to east. As the object moved closer, the light string appeared to be a collection of lights spaced closely together, but a more amber color. They did not appear to be at a high altitude like a passing satellite would be, but rather at an altitude lower than an airliner would fly.

As the object was directly overhead, you could make out about 15-20 of these lights moving at a consistent speed. They were separated from each other, but not too far apart, about as far apart as a string of white Christmas lights are. They were bright; the light they emitted was about as bright as a jet's lights passing overhead and certainly more brighter than a star light. The light was amber in color, like a car's fog lights/parking light. There was a silhouette surrounding the string of lights, I would describe it as a zeppelin/blimp shape. It was similar in color to the night sky, although a little lighter to notice a contrast between the lights and the silhouette. It was clearly a continuous oval that surrounded the whole light string. Basing off the brightness of the lights and the definition of the surrounding silhouette shape, the object couldn't have been more than 10,000' above us. The object made it just a little more past being directly overhead towards the eastern sky, then rapidly faded away (about 3-5 seconds from being totally brilliant to disappearing) there was not a cloud in the sky that night. It was almost as if the lights just simply turned off and the object disappeared from view. No noise at all, just the lights and the silhouette surrounding the lights.

It definitely did not seem like just a string of passing satellites; they were emitting light like a car headlight in the distance and were more amber in color than white like a passing satellite, they seemed lower than orbit, and they were slower than a passing satellite. Also, every picture/video I've seen of the starlinks showed so many satellites, like hundreds of them and a string of lights that stretched across the sky. These lights were not that many in quantity and not that long. I would have believed it was starlinks had it not a) been those characteristics I just described, and b) had it not simply faded into the night sky when there was zero clouds/obstructions in the sky. The pictures I'm uploading don't do it justice, they did not appear as white as they do in the pictures, and they did not show the silhouette and the separation between the lights. The first darker picture was taken over the western sky and with an iPhone 10S without the night mode. One of the brighter pictures was taken again over the western sky, and the other was taken a little before it was directly overhead. Both of the brighter pictures were taken with an iPhone 11 with night mode.

I'm sorry for wasting whoever's time with this if these are characteristics of starlinks and you rule it as such. Like I said, I would have believed it was starlinks, but those few characteristics and the fact that it faded into the sky. It probably was starlinks, but after doing research all night I still have a gut feeling that it was more than just starlinks. Sorry again if you rule these as the starlinks, I just have a feeling that they were something else hence why I'm doing this report. Thank you for your time.

I was taking a photo of the Harvest Moon at my home with my I-phone as it was rising out of the eastern sky just above the trees. It was a very clear evening with a wisp of clouds. It was 9:24 PM. I took two quick shots within 3 seconds. There was a glow around the moon.

I did not see anything except the moon and sky when I took the shot. After I came back inside I noticed that an object appeared in both photos. One above the moon and the other a bit higher and right of it in the second shot, both within that timeframe of 3 seconds. The moon is bright white. The object is tinted blue with a cylindrical almost u-shaped body. It also had its own glow. Since I didn't see the photo until well afterwards, I have no idea how long it remained in the sky.

There was an orange light that was hovering. I went further out into my yard and I could then see some blue, green, and red lights. It seemed to be partly covered by clouds but what I made out was a saucer shape with a dome on top. I came inside for a bit to warm up and when I went back out it was gone. I then seen that a friend of mine on facebook that lives about 7 miles away posted asking if any one had seen green lights falling from the sky.

I went outside to move my vehicle and noticed an odd bright light . At first I thought it was a plane waiting to land staying still for clearance but then I remembered the hour and that there are no flight coming in this late here in my town. I noticed lots of similar bluish color circle lights and some blinking at first I though planes again and was intrigued by the planes that were flying under the radar with no sound. That’s when it really hit me. I recorded the light and around it took pictures. and brought my wife out to see it also and she was confused also. We stood their for a good 3 to 4 minutes then walked in the house after researching online about these sighting . I went outside again to see if the light was there and there was nothing more the other lights I thought were stars . Black sky with some planes coming through .

Bright light observer outside my window high in the sky. Heavy overcast with snow. Light was bright and moved across the sky at fast rate. Had to be below cloud line or just above. Light got brighter and brighter before just disappearing. This light moved across the sky at an extreme rate. Started slow then zipped across the horizon. Like I said, overcast with light snow. Had to be at a lower elevation.

Three white lights moving vertically next to eachother, while bobbing next eachother.

Three foggy, kind of small, white lights moving fairly fast across the sky. They were moving in a vertical line kind of bobbing side by side as they were moving. My first UFO sighting, never seen anything like it.

4 Bright Orange Lights/Spheres. Not planes or fireworks. Flying objects that were silent

As I went out in to my driveway, I looked up to see some fireworks going off when I saw an Orange light just hanging there. I thought at first it was a firework, due to its firey orange color, that had reached its peak height and was ready to explode. Instead of explode though I noticed it was moving south, towards me, at a slow pace maybe 30-40mph.

After I realized it was flying I watched it for a minute then ran in and grabbed my video camera and got the wife. As we watched it fly overhead and right past us the orange glow just faded out.

At that time we both looked back north and noticed another one coming. This one did the exact same thing. It flew south then slowly faded out. This happened two more times.

These objects seemed to be following each other at a distance. One every 2-3 mins apart. The great thing about the night of the 4th was that it was a clear night and even after the lights faded we should have still been able to see the shape of the objects due to the fact the sky was so clear and we could see the stars.

I'm not sure what they were but as I said the were a bright firey orange color and were roughly 2000 feet high and completely silent. They didn't make a sound! I see and hear planes go over all the time since I live about 5 miles S.E. from DTW. These were NOT planes and were not on the flight route of the planes that land or take off.

These objects looked as if they were following Inkster rd due south and veered east over Lake Erie. I found these same objects on youtube when I typed in UFO's of July 4th. As far as my video went. The video quality was terrible. Trying to record and object like that at night is harder then I thought it would be.

I'm not a UFO nut I and my wife work for GM and have no history of seeing things and can explain almost all of what I see in the skys. This night however I saw 4 Bright Orange Lights flying overhead at a somewhat low altitude and did not see any type of body to these crafts against the backround of a Very Clear Sky. These lights simply faded out as they flew over and were gone!

I cannot explain this or tell anyone what it was I saw other then orange lights.

They first appeared and stayed as 2 pairs as they flew higher and out of sight they all split the last one we could see seemed to gain altitude very fast as they vanished.

I first thought they were 4 helicopters and then realized they were not and i called for my wife to come take a look. she grabbed her smartphone and took 2 photos and i will send you them with this report.

They appeared to be moving as shaking left to right when i first saw them they were not that far up in the sky but as they flew over our home we went to the back porch which is covered

I grabbed my binoculars and by the time i got outside in the back-yard and got one of them into my binoculars you could barley see it.

I had the wife then look it up on google and found this sight that is why i am sending this report.

10-15 UFOs spotted over I-75, orange in color.

I say hundreds saw because I was turning onto West Rd from I-75 and you have to be blind not to see them.

They were traveling North over 75. Managed to take a picture, only got 3. Orange in color and almost glowing like an ember from a fire.

I was always a skeptic until now, having been in military, never knew of craft that looked like them, likely not a UAV or something else.

This needs a further investigation, I know something I shouldnt have.

Low flying silent rectangular backed object going west with 5 huge white strobe lights on back flashing right to left

2 people witnessed 1 low flying silent rectangular backed object going west with 5 big white strobe lights flashing right to left.

I was with a friend and we were parked in a car on a dirt road facing west. It was around dusk and date is approximate. Noticed a low flying object flying away from us going in a west direction, while other planes were flying south. It was flying at the same pace or slower than the neighboring aircraft flying above. The only visible side we could see was the back due to the direction, it was flying away from us.

The back of the object was rectangular and flat. 5 huge round spotlight shaped lights were on the back, from edge to edge almost touching each other and were as tall as the object spanning from the edge of the top to the bottom. The white lights were strobing from right to left at a slow pace. The first would flash on then turn off then immediatly the next would flash on then off. The object was quite big, it seemed almost big enough for a plane to fit inside of it, heightwise. It did not have any typical small aircraft identification lights. It made no sound that we could hear.

Odd shifting light that changes colors and has never been seen in the sky around my house since I have lived there possible UFO?????

Let me start with I don’t believe in UFO’s but this is something rare that I have never seen before in my life. So I got witnesses to verify that I am not going crazy and everyone saw the same thing. So here is my report.

I was outside looking at the sky as I do most nights and see the constellations in the winter.

When I saw what looked like a very bright star. But it was flashing different color lights; red, blue, green, and white. The longer I watched it I noticed that it was not just sitting in one place. When actually it would sit still for a little while and then dart to the right, then sit still and dart to the left. The one thing that I did notice is that it did not have a certain pattern in the movement so you never knew which direction it was going to move. The whole time it was moving it was climbing higher and higher. While it was darting left and right it was not so fast that you could not see it, and the light did not blur or trail so I assumed it was a long ways off. But this I can not be sure of. We was not able to see the shape of the object. It just looked like a big diamond in the sky, and every once in a while a light would shine into it and make like a prism of light. I guess it looked as if someone wearing this diamond on their hand and would move the hand every now and again.

The location of this light was directly east of our home. It was just above the tree line behind my house. The tree’s there are about 40 foot tall. And they are located about 100 yards behind my house. The ground slopes up at about 5 degrees from the back of my house to the tree line. Hopefully this will give you enough information to figure out a close estimate of where it was in the sky. It was also right below the belt of Orion.

If there is anything explainable about this the please contact me and let me know. I also have the information on how to get in contact with the wittnesses.

Faint, weaving, red lights over Michigan.

One night after putting a bonfire out at my house. Me and some buddys laid on my patio to look at the stars and talk. While we were looking up, we noticed several little faint, red dots which had to definately be outside of the earths atmosphere. The red dots moved in a weaving pattern, some of the weaving was in a very small area and some weaved in a very large area, it seemed as if they never went over the same area twice. We prolly laid there for about 2 hours just watching whatever these dots were, they were everywhere across the sky. I know we weren't just seeing things because we could describe where one was at in the sky, all focus on it, and describe the same movement, and which star formations they were near.

white glowing flying wing

While looking at the stars a mooving light caught my eye. The object was mooving directly above me from east to west. I thought it was a satelite untill the light did a radical change of direction,making about a 30 degree turn to the south west without banking or slowing. It was then I could see the object had shape and a white glow. It made another sharp turn without banking and now was flying due south. The object never made noise and had allmost a wobbly, eratic way of flying,though it flew quite fast. I watched the object fly south for what I judged was about three miles when it did a 360 degree turn without banking or slowing down and came back over me. It appeared to be a little lower and looked to be somewhat trianguler. The object continued on this path and flew into some clouds and I never saw it again.
