Initially 3 stars moving slowing in a triangle formation. Then more stars shot up from tree line faster. Some blinked in and out.

It was confused because it looked like 3 stars were slowly moving. Then a bunch of stars started to pop up above the tree line at different speeds. The changed directions and didn't go exactly straight. Some faded in and out. One actually went backwards for a second. One of the stars was twinkling between red, green and white.

Direction from Viewer: Southeast to Northwest (looking toward Collins rd from Oakleaf area)
Angle of Elevation: 69
Closest Distance: 30,000 feet
Estimated Speed: 4,100 mph (based on trajectory).
Characteristics: Left a trail, Changed Colo

Bright blue light shot upward-left above clouds, turned white, vanished instantly with trail—unlike any meteor or aircraft.

My brother and I observed a single object—a solid light blue streak, almost white, but noticeably cold-blue in tone. It moved upward and to the left across the night sky, appearing above the clouds. The object maintained a uniform, solid shape and left behind a narrow light trail, like a sharp streak or beam. The trail was not broken, dotted, or flickering—completely solid and clean.

There was no sound, no blinking lights, no fragmentation, and the motion was incredibly smooth and fast. As it reached the end of its brief path (about 12 feet across the sky from our perspective in 2 seconds), it turned white and formed a circular shape, then vanished instantly, along with the entire trail—like it was erased from existence. No fading, no burn-off, no visible dissipation.

We both have experience observing the night sky and are familiar with meteors, satellites, and aircraft. This was unlike anything we’ve ever seen—the angle, speed, color, and behavior rule out meteors, drones, or conventional aircraft.

I later used ChatGPT to help calculate the possible speed based on altitude and movement—it would have been moving well over 4,000 mph, qualifying as hypersonic. The object made no sound and was clearly not part of any known commercial or military activity in the area.

Object with lights stopped for 10 minutes accompanied by small red objects

Let me open by saying I live near Jacksonville Internation airport (12 miles), Jacksonville Executive at Craig Airport (3 miles), Naval Station Mayport (6 miles), and Naval Air Station Jacksonville (10 miles). All distances are above ground level (AGL). I am retired navy, and I was in aircraft and helicopter squadrons.

Every night my wife and I take our doggo Curtis out front so he can do his business. It’s normally between 2015 and 2030. I am always looking at the sky. I am and amateur astrophotographer. Maybe less than amateur.

There are always airplanes flying over my house. There are commercial flights at high altitudes and small planes that fly very low. Some nights I can count five or more at the same time.

On April 8, 2026, around 2020, I noticed an (airplane) flying northwest, maybe a ¼ mile or less away at 500 to 1000 feet. The aircraft had aviation lights. As it got closer, it looked less like a plane. There were two very bright lights, one on the front and one on the back. There was a bright red light in the center of the white lights. It looks like an X. If this was an aircraft, I would have seen the green light which should be on the right side. There was no green light. When it looked to be about 1 or 2 miles away, it stopped. I ran into the house and got some binoculars (Bushnell 7x50). The object was still in the same position. When I looked at it with the binoculars, I couldn’t make out what it was, but there were small red objects/lights flying around the object. The red lights came in from all directions, flying above and below the object. The object sat motionless for about 10 minutes, but the small red lights only lasted about 5 minutes. It appeared the same brightness the entire time. Then it slowly continued northwest and eventually went out of sight beyond some trees. Very strange.

When aircraft fly over at the altitude the object did, I can hear them. At its closest it was about 1/8 to ¼ mile away and not very high. It made no noise that I could hear. If it was a drone, it certainly was not your typical DJI/Amazon drone. I’d say it was bigger than a Cessna. It definitely wasn’t a helo. I really wouldn’t have given it much thought if it weren’t for the small red lights flying around the object.

Evening sky cloudy suddenly burst of bright light and unknown light

Was driving home and witnessed what I can only describe as a burst of light like almost electrical looking and within seconds it stated to dissipate and then there was a bright round looking light that flew across sky south of my location. What I saw was very strange it seemed to enter the sky or arrive at the location first seen because of tremendous light that lite up clouds around it and quickly disappeared, that is the effect of it, not the actual object.

They are bright solid white lights that appear to be stars and a cluster but then they start moving really quickly and I have video of them and also planes in the same frame so you can see the plane is so much closer than the bright solid light that’s far up moving quickly

Driving westbound at 0735 a bright light in the sky caught my attention. I looked in sky and thought it was the morning sun reflecting off a jet. It had a long central silver body and something surrounding it like appendages. It was not a plane. I kept looking at it when it just vanished with no contrails, it disappeared before my eyes. There was nothing around it. It did not move laterally. It just appeared for 5-10 sec the vanished into thin air. I was on my way to work

Strange Drone or UFO Circling Argyle Forest in Jacksonville, FL

I observed the following drone/ Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon on December 18th, 2024 in Jacksonville, FL.

Around 2120 hours, while heading home by driving North on I-295 and exiting onto the Collins Road exit, I observed an object hovering over the houses located on the Northside of Collins Rd. At first, I thought it was a helicopter due to its size and how it hovered in the air of an estimated height of 200-400 feet, but I did not observe any rotor blades and it was quiet as my vehicle approached (my front driver’s and passenger side windows were all the way down). When I stopped at the off-ramp traffic light onto Collins Rd., I can see the object was within a mile of my location. Out of curiosity stemming from the drone/UAP incidents occurring in the New Jersey area, I decided to follow the object.

It began moving eastward and parallel to Collins Rd but I lost sight of it as I approached Blanding Blvd. I then drove back onto I-295 and headed back on to Collins Rd. I headed West on Collins Rd. when I saw the object again. It was still on the Northside of Collins Rd but was now somewhere over Shindler Dr., west of where I last seen the object. I pulled over into the parking lot of Marantha Church (7550 Collins Rd, Jacksonville, FL 32244) and used my Android A15 phone to record the object. It kept heading Eastward over the houses, still around 200-400 feet in air but now within a half of a mile. Its speed was slower than an airplane and hovered over the houses like a helicopter or a drone. It then flew Southeast and gained altitude as it passed over Collins Rd. I did not see rotor blades nor hear the familiar noise of rotor blades. I then lost sight of it again.

I sat in the parking lot for what I believed was two minutes before continuing on my way home. I then saw the object again hovering North of Collins Rd. and west of Shindler Dr. I turned onto Shindler Dr. and headed North as I observed the object crossing Shindler Rd. It appeared to be a little higher in altitude than the previous encounters. I then lost sight of it again. I headed back to Collins Rd. and continued West and made a right onto Old Middleburg Rd.

I then saw the object again as it was flying over Argyle Forest and heading North and circling to the East. I pulled my vehicle over into the vehicle entrance of Enterprise Learning Academy (8085 Old Middleburg Rd S, Jacksonville, FL 32222). I grabbed my work binoculars and stood in the parking lot and did my best to record the object. I used the Timestamp Camera App to document the location and time of the initial recording then switched to the A15 standard camera function to get a better zoom and footage of the object.

While standing in that parking lot for around 20 minutes, I observed the object slowly fly over the school and continued on a circular path of what I would think was the entire Argyle Forest area. It’s flight path was clockwise appearing from the Southwest, flying past the school, and continuing Northeast where I lost sight of it over the tree line. It would then reappear from the Southwest again 2-5 minutes, looping around at least 5 times.

I ended up getting a better look at the object during these flyovers due to the use of my binoculars and the two times where it was low enough to get a better look. It had one flashing red light at the center-rear of it. There was no green light on its right side. It did have dull white, almost orange lights on the tips of the wings and brighter white lights towards the front rear of the object, with some flashing. It had two bright white lights underneath where the cockpit area. Its structure was what astonished me. The object was large, a little bit smaller than a school bus. It appeared to have two pairs of narrow fixed wings. The first set was close to the front, like a normal plane. But the horizontal stabilizers at the tail of the object were the same wingspan of the wings and I did not see a vertical stabilizer. The rear pair had the dull white lights at the wingtips. Again, I did not see or hear any type of rotors or engines. The noise it gave off was a hum, only becoming audible as it flew close to the school. The fuselage was hard to gauge, it appeared narrow from the bottom as it flew past the school, but larger when it would fly towards the school. It didn’t comeback past 9:55pm. I departed the area and did not see it again. I did notice street lights flickering on Argyle Forest Rd, just before the intersection of Old Middleburg Rd S.

When I arrived home, I used the Flightradar24 app to see if what I observed was a plane but I did not find any history of a plane flying over the area during that time.

To give a quick background of myself, I was a police officer for three years, I worked as a security supervisor for Disney Cruise Lines for two years and now work as a private investigator. My father in-law is a retired military pilot and is currently a commercial pilot. I also assisted with two helicopter medevacs when I worked for Disney Cruise Lines, one was on an island and the other from the ship while at sea. And I have some experience with commercial drones. I have never in my life seen this type of vehicle.

I decided to make a police report with the Jacksonville Sheriffs Office at 2am Thursday due to my concern and to get it documented. The police dismissed it, they said it was a plane then a drone, even after I explained what I saw. Then they said it was the City of Orange Park spraying pesticides, which didn’t make any sense because this took place over Jacksonville/ Duval County and not Clay County. I believe they thought I was a loon and were just trying to find a rational explanation. They did agree to take down an information report (report number 24-767462) but they did not ask for the videos.

On Thursday, December 19, 2024, I called Naval Air Station Jacksonville’ Air Traffic Control Tower but I couldn’t get any information. On Friday, December 20, 2024, I visited Cecil Air Field’s Air Control Tower, but their tower only monitors a 3-mile radius. On Monday, December 22, 2024 and Monday, December 31, 2024, MUFON made contact with me after I submitted my report and video. It is believed that it maybe some type of Government Unmanned Aerial Vehicle but the description, images and behavior is baffling the investigator.

I watched the sky for awhile watching flying objects from a distance staying in on place for long periods of time and then moving. Awhile afterwards they got closer to me and my neighbor that was watching with me. As one of the objects got closer I started to film it and it immediately took a turn away from us.

Car sized craft

I saw this thing before I knew about all these other sightings and just chalked it up to "huh! how about that?" I got off work to walk the dog in the Riverside neighborhood in Jax and right outside my house I looked at the clear sky to check the stars and saw this car sized rectangular craft that moved NNE very slowly about 100ft up. I could see it clearly! It had a soft orange glowing central area and no other lights. The ends were rounded like you might expect from a drone but they were solid. It was completely silent and it was a quiet night out too. Flew over my house and I lost sight of it.

Non-Reflective UAP

I was taking exposures of the area for a meteor project I was working on and even my exposure did not pick up on anything while it was visibly seen as it had no reflectivity of any kind. I then coordinated with Flightradar24 and it saw something move faster than what the other aircraft were moving at around 9:53 pm EST local. I am very skeptical as to what I witnessed because it had no reflectivity and I saw it dim stars. It was looked like it was moving from South to North from my location but I am still unable to verify in any light trails. It was a black triangle with no emanating sound or any reflective surfaces.

I go outside a lot in the evening to sit on my balcony and have noticed these hovering objects for about 6 months. They hover for up to 10 hours and move only so often to a different location or height. When this object is still, it appears as a small, bright light, but as it begins to get ready to fly or move across the sky, it changes shape. No way this is a helicopter. It hovers, it streaks through the sky in seconds, stops completely, gets in a tiny circle, blows itself up to be bigger, and can even appears oblong and bright. Yup, it seems I'm losing it, but at least I have it captured on video and now photos!

Several lights on arched trajectory, staying in place before quickly accelerating away

I was walking my dog at approx 9:15pm and it was a mostly clear evening sky. I was admiring all of the stars and could even see satellites orbiting, I also watching all of the airplane traffic (were under a flight path). When I panned over to a different area (southeast) I saw between 6-8 white/green lights all in perfect order evenly spaced apart moving along an arched trajectory. They were below airplane traffic. All at once they sped up (at the same pace) and zipped away in a flash on that same arched trajectory.

Saw a bright orange object moving in the sky. It dissapeared eventually behind a cloud After recording, another one came by again

While in my backyard, I noticed an orange object moving across the sky. It was definitely not an aircraft, but I thought maybe it was a meteor. I began recording and it eventually disappeared behind a dark cloud. After, I turned around and a second object was flying in the same path and disappeared behind the same cloud. After looking back on the videos, you can see when I zoom in, that it is a circular orange object. I really can’t comprehend what I saw.

Could not see craft - 1st object was red - second object following in same path same size was orange

From facing North . When I first saw the first object - it was in between trees and I assumed it was probably a helicopter . However, as I got a little better view as it moved, it noticed it looks large and just all red and it was not a clear type red color as would be expected . There was no sound . It was moving relatively slow as a helicopter would . It took about 12 seconds to travel from first to last sighting - around 60 degrees to 80 degrees altitude angle . It moved from north to south . Bearing at first sight was about 320 degrees - North being 0 degrees . As I was wondering about that, I saw a second object the same size moving the same speed in the same path . This time I noticed it looked like a fire slightly darker and lighter orange radiation or flow . At one point it appeared that a small portion separated - similar to a spark or fragment . It remained illuminated for a couple of seconds . I moved away from the trees and tried to observe the object for a longer time period and I noticed no sound at all . The environment was quiet . The object looked much too large to be light source from a regular aircraft . It did not blink . It did not flare or flutter . It appeared to be fuzzy / blurry like a fire heat source that has subtle rapid slight variations in colors . Could not tell how high in the sky it was because I could not make out any significant features other than the rather large glowing color . It wasn't bright for something under 1000 feet but it it was several thousand feet then it was bright and large . It was about the size of a large helicopter at 750 feet .

Formation of Stars, that moved like missiles?

We walked outside and we could see all the stars more than usual. On the left hand side of the Big Dipper, there was a formation of stars in completely geometrical vertical line once we started asking eachother if we were seeing the same thing it began to move still within a line formation but it appeared like they were missiles coming at us. We let off a firework or two once we realized they were coming towards us because we were outside for Labor Day. Once we lit off two or three they stopped coming forward and got back into a line above our heads and then disappeared one by one. Now im not sure if this was starlink as there was a launch 3 hours after this happened but I doubt it due to the way they were moving like projectile missiles at us. i have seen starlink before and it was not like this. We tried to video the event but it wasn't showing up in the video, the fireworks didnt even show up in the video. It was spooky.

Bright rectangle light that glowed with intense red light

It was high up in the sky in the clouds and was at first obscured by the clouds making it seem like the moon almost with how you could see the aura of the light from behind the cloud, when the cloud moved it was a long rectangular flying object with a bright red beam that looked like a red star that was super bright and then after a while it dimmed down and appeared to the side of the skyline with the same glowing red aura but soon after it was obscured by trees

NUFORC UFO Sighting 176939
Occurred: 2023-06-22 21:16 Local
Reported: 2023-07-22 14:53 Pacific
Duration: > 20 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Jacksonville, FL, USA
Location details: Seen from various parts of our subdivision in approximately the northwestern sky about 5000 ft

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

We saw a very bright object in the northwestern sky (at about 50-60 degrees from the horizon)

The object looked like a very large, bright star but upon further inspection, it looked to be a completely stationary light-emitting object that was motionless. It stood out brightly over the stars. I snapped 4 photos with my Google Pixel 7a and upon zooming the images, it appears that the object is actually structured. Or, if what appears to structure around the light is a photographic artifact, I would like to know. I am attaching 2 of the 4 photos (as well as the enlarged versions).

Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Aircraft nearby

bright fluorescent, orange, oddly shaped lit up like an active fire slowly dam down after probably two minutes.

I was walking outside to my car and looked up and saw this abnormally, large, shining, bright fluorescent, orange light, it shined, as if it were an active fire. It was higher than the airplanes, and the only movement it had was the activity of its lights. I could not tell whether or not it was stationary, but if it was not, it barely moved. The activity of the lights did not stop, but during the two minute duration, it started to get dimmer. Soon enough, the light dimmed all the way off, as if you just turned off a lightbulb, the light took a second to completely go away, and it was just slightly bigger than planes, and I could tell it was not a plane because the center of it was brighter than the rest, as if the it was on fire or something, but it was not a star because this object was a very fluorescent orange, a very Crayola crayon orange, and much larger than a star.

Explanation: Insect - Possible


Game camera picked up a bright light moving left to right with audio that sounds rich with information to me. Unlike any audio before.

Nothing like the audio/video recorded on this game camera has never been seen or heard before since being on 10 acre property around 2008. No light like on the video has ever triggered the camera to start recording and no unexplainable audio like it has ever been heard either. The audio needs detailed analysis for what it might be.

NUFORC UFO Sighting 174968
Occurred: 2023-03-03 21:45 Local
Reported: 2023-03-10 22:14 Pacific
Duration: Approximately 10 minutes.
No of observers: 1

Location: Jacksonville, FL, USA
Location details: My backyard, looking South for this particular sighting but I have seen similar in other directions.

Shape: Flash
Explanation: Satellite - Probable
Characteristics: Lights on object

Blinking light of very slow duration in the upper atmosphere or geostationary orbit.

I’m hoping for some input on these and my gut says they’re some sort of satellite using an instrument that very briefly emits visible or IR light.
I view the sky with very high-specification White Phosphor night vision 3-5 times a week. I use a dedicated video recorder that degrades the image somewhat but is the best solution I’ve found for recording through a night vision device. I watch the sky often enough that I’ve become quite skilled at identifying mundane objects: primarily satellites and how they reflect the below-horizon sun. The objects I describe below and have provided video of do not appear to be reflecting the sun on as they spin and they do not follow an orbital path. They appear to be geostationary or moving extremely slowly.

What I’ve detected are “blinks” coming from an extremely high altitude, likely above the earth’s atmosphere. I have seen them at night (from 8pm to 11pm is my usual viewing time) and in the pre-dawn hour (5am to 6:15ish). I have seen them while facing Northeast, West, and South as these are my usual viewing areas. I don’t typically face sue North but may do so for the sake of additional data. Most “blinkers” are so dim they’re difficult or impossible to see on video but I see them clearly through my night vision device. The bright one in the video I’ve linked was, by far, the brightest I have seen. All of them blink at a regular interval but the interval varies. So far, the intervals have been 17 seconds, 31 seconds, 48 seconds, and 1:17 seconds. Those intervals are just for the ones I’ve watched long enough to start counting in my head. Another data point that indicates they’re not reflecting the sun: in some instances, I have been staring at one area of the sky for over a half hour before the blinks start and after approximately 10 minutes with no indication of movement across the sky, the blinks stop. Satellites reflecting sunlight don’t behave that way.
The video I’ve linked happens to be the first time I’ve seen 2 blinking at the same time in the same area. Usually, I only see a single blinker. In the video, I first see the bright blinker at 0:13 in the lower left of the night vision tube, I then turned my attention to it and the bright blink is in the middle of the frame. At 2:08, the second blinker starts to the left, much dimmer than the initial one. If necessary, I can provide time stamps for every blink. Also, if it’s preferable for me to send the video directly, I can do that. The only editing I’ve done is slight cropping and I had to merge 2 clips as my recording device chops video into 5 minute segments. If any investigator would like to see them in person more clearly, I welcome a visit. I see them every session. https://youtu.be/6VDefldh4N0

Location: Jacksonville, FL, USA
Location details: Near 103rd Street on the westide of Jacksonville near Cecil Field

Shape: Fireball
Explanation: Chinese Lantern - Probable


2 orange fireballs flying parallel to each other then progressively fading out.

My husband and I were driving when we noticed what looked like 2 orange fireballs in the sky. I did not see them first appear, but just happened to look up and saw them. We stopped the car and got out to get a better look. They were flying west toward Cecil Field, parallel to each other/ side-by-side, at the same rate of speed. They appeared to be flickering slowly, getting dim and then bright again, but they were also going up and down slightly, almost like the were floating or bouncing on the wind... like they were dancing. Then the one to my right dimmed and went out completely. After maybe 15 more seconds the other dimmed and went out. Since it was late at night and the sky was dark I could not tell if there were any objects in the sky after their lights went out. They were not aircraft, because there were no other lights or even a craft seen. There was also no sound. They did not behave like flares or skydivers with flares. They were not falling, but flying straight ahead, keeping the same altitude and same rate of speed.

Definitely not a plane , maybe a satellite but it just wasn't moving like a satellite or any meteor I've ever seen.

It looked similar to a satellite but it was not on a trajectory like I've seen in the past it as well came into visibility in a point of the sky at random we're if it was a satellite or something I should have seen it from one horizon to another typicaly idk it just seemed different, idk how to explain it made me nervous with all this shit with china going on.

Metallic Cube rotating on all axis reflecting light dropping tear drops shapes below it

I was taking my dog outside in my backyard on a crystal clear day when I noticed to the north of me something metallic reflecting light in the sky about 500-1000ft above me. It looked like a metallic cube one second, a sphere another, then changed or morphed into several geometric shapes while reflecting light from its different axis it was spinning on. I got my phone and started to record it. It traveled north to west to south. As it was traveling north to west it looked like it was dropping perfectly symmetrical or geometric white tear drops, looked kinda like Pac Man pellets. As it traveled south it shot up probably 3-4000ft kept spinning and it either vanished or my phone wasn't able to focus on it. It made no sound. It looked like a 3 dimensional metallic cube/sphere morphing, reflecting light off all axis it was spinning from. I have four family members that are pilots (private and military) and they don't know what it is. I honesty don't think it was a weather ballon, or drone, or plane, or helicopter. It blinked in and out of existence while it was rotating on its axis reflecting light. The two videos are the originals and were shot with an iPhone X at 4k.

Shape: Chevron


5 blacked out aircraft in perfect formation flying north to south at approximately 500 feet at a speed of around 150 - 175 kts

Firstly, I don't believe in UFO's, ancient aliens, and all that; however, as an air traffic controller, retired Air Force, and commercial rated pilot I am fairly confident on how to identify an aircraft. At approximately 2000 hours while watching my dog do her thing, I noticed (briefly) 5 chevron shaped objects that were blacked out but gray in color moving at a moderate speed at or below 500 feet traveling North to South in a perfect V-formation. They were without strobes and position lights and lacked any noticeable sound. There were no vehicles driving by that would have illuminated structures casting a shadow into the sky (the sky was partly cloudy at the moment; few clouds that were visible); geese that fly in formation always make noise while in flight but there was no noise and no jagged formation movement...and, I rarely have seen/heard geese flying at night. I know what I saw, and these were definitely objects that could not be classified and definitely were not drones of any kind. Although close to an airport, I do know that these objects were not an aircraft; at least not listed in Jane's book.

We were driving to petsmart to pick up my daughter from work. Two circles then seemed to be connected glided in front of us about eighty feet up. The circles were shaped like a sideways 8. They were outlined in a a bright green. Each of them were. With a red light in the middle. Then above them to the left of them was a tic-tac. They were all moving together. Just gliding along. No sound whatsoever. Went to the left side of my vehicle then they just disappeared. It was huge. We've never seen anything like it.

Unusual and perfectly quiet unknown object with pink/red faint lights

We were walking about our neighborhood a few weeks ago, it was about 8:30-9:30 PM EST. The sky was perfectly dark and it was quiet. My partner mentioned he saw something above us – looking up, it took a moment to see the faint lights. We were unable to make out the shape of the object or if there was one or multiple. However, the faint lights were reddish, it seemed like a row of lights were side by side floating in a long line. It seemed pretty close to us, and initially we thought it was still, then realized it was floating, moving very slow. We watched for about 5-6 minutes and then it was gone.
We went about our night and then got busy with life. However, I went online tonight to see if anyone else saw this and wanted to know what it might be. What was odd was how quiet it was being that it looked like something that spanned maybe 20-40 ft. I ran across this site and would love to know what it was. I don’t assume it was an alien yet would really like to satisfy my curiosity.

Bright light fell from sky, numerous beings descended onto my roof via a shroud of clouds and I was violated sexually, lost 8 hours.

On March 7, 2022 I was sitting in my backyard in Jacksonville, FL and a white star-like light fell from the sky and a few minutes later a group of beings that seemed hybrid in nature descended on my roof. They flew upright holding a long whip-like devise that is red and white striped. It appeared to be tied around waist and somehow helped to generated the cloud covering. They have metal devices over their nose that connect to ear on one side.

The lights they carry are incredibly bright. Some carry a 3-pronged striped wand of sorts. I was approached from behind, something was put over my nose and mouth, I passed out. I woke up 8 hours later and while I felt euphoric I also had been violated in the rectum area which is not something I would have agreed to. I have been celebrate for 8 years. I also have strange bruising on left arm. One hole is from the nurse but the others cannot all be from a bandaide .

I have had experiences with unknown beings since 11/7/2021. Some are hollographic in nature, some look human, others are like nothing I have ever seen. I have been shot at since 11/7/21 with a device that flies from the sky, through our roof shingles, through the house and into my body creating small holes. I have burn holes that go through my new mattress. There are holes in various things. They also shoot something onto our walls that leaves two fine strands of fiber if steamed properly to view the dots they leave behind. Is it some type of surveillance?

I have also had peaceful encounters. Since this started our attic has been cleared of most all insullation and I hear movement that is much bigger than a rodent often. If this is a hoax or gaslighting then the source deserves an Oscar!

I have called the police many times and they Baker Acted me over it- everyone thinks I am crazy. I am not! Help. They were above my home again last night 3/16/22.

I have plenty of photos and video, but was not able to upload to phone.

Characteristics: Aura or haze around object, Possible abduction

Bright dancing light that was about 40 feet in the air, then vanished.

One light appeared suddenly on the other side of the pond when I and my friend were on while stargazing. The light caught me and my friends' full attention for about 5 to 6 seconds I would say. As the event occurred we both could not explain this happening in nature or from a man-made structure. The light seemed to dangle/dance moving up in down right next to the road that was very dark with some cars passing by. There is only one house right near where we saw the orange light and when it dipped down it might have touched the ground possibly being a ufo abduction.

Three orange perfectly symmetrical triangle formation lights

My significant other and I had just parked and got out of the car to head into a grocery store to get things for dinner. It was dusk and as we started walking towards the entrance she pointed up and goes "Look at those lights". There were 3 orange lights in the sky unblinking sitting in the sky in a triangle formation. At first I thought it was those Chinese lamps that people release but quicky realized they were far too high up to be those and the perfect triangle was too odd for those. The lights were probably 15 thousand maybe 20 feet up in the sky with at least 200 yards if not more between each light and we're unmoving. I noticed a plane (probably commercial seeing as we aren't far from Jacksonville International Airport) was flying somewhat below the left bottom point of the triangle. Quickly one disappeared then another and by the time we knew it all the lights simply were gone. Sadly my phone was charging at home and hers couldn't snap a clear picture.

I saw 3 cylindrical objects flying past our Jet Blue flight as we were approaching the airport.

JACKSONVILLE, FL - On September 6, 2021 - (Labor Day), I was traveling on a Jet Blue flight from Boston, MA to Jacksonville, FL. Our plane departed Logan Airport on time at 10am....scheduled to land in Jacksonville, FL at 12:50pm. The weather was clear blue skies for the entire flight.

In full disclosure, I have been a licensed private pilot for 24 years, and a licensed drone pilot for 6 years. Typically when I fly commercially, I tend to book a window seat...on an exit row. On this flight, I was sitting in Row 12, window seat – exit row, on the left side of the aircraft. The jet configuration was two seats on the left, an aisle, and two seats on the right.

At approximately 12:35pm, we had just entered the “pattern” for landing at Jacksonville International Airport. The Jet was on a downwind leg (paralleling the runway). The Jet was heading due West, at approximately 2,800 feet in the air, traveling at roughly 240mph. I clearing saw JAX airport out of the left window. Everything at the airport was very clear. The runways, the jets, the terminal, control tower, etc.

I pressed my face against window looking west to see/gage when the pilot might turn left on the base leg of the pattern. Yes, I know it’s weird. As a pilot I tend to do that. Flying over this part of the pattern is a thick, heavy forest. In August, the leaves on the trees are very dark green.

As I looked out the window, facing west, I saw three bright white objects flying in the opposite direction. I didn’t know what they were. Big white birds, three drones, no way, but I couldn’t tell. As they got closer, they were three long cylindrical objects. They were in a triangle pattern. They were roughly 75 feet to 150 feet above the tree line. I was above the objects. I was completely stunned what I saw. It was crystal clear and their white fuselage stuck out against the dark tree line.

I could clearly see these “aircraft”. They were all white, I am guessing about the size of 2 or 3 cars (20 to 25 feet long)....maybe a bit longer. The width was about as wide as a car. They clearly had a rounded front fuselage, and a rounded rear – everything looked completely smooth. All three were the exact same size – and they were flying in a perfect triangle. These three had NO wings, NO rotors (blades), and absolutely NO exhaust. I could not see any windows.

The entire encounter lasted 10-15 seconds. As they passed our Jet Blue flight, the left wing blocked my view for a second. As they flew past the wing, I looked to the rear and followed them until they were out of sight. I was completely stunned! After the flight, the captain of our plane was standing in the aisle outside of the cockpit. I stopped and asked him if he noticed anything on radar right before he turned the base leg. He said he did not notice anything.

As I got into my vehicle, I was so upset that I pulled over and contacted the Jacksonville Control Tower. They took my information, and took a report. I told two people in the control tower what I saw. They probably thought I was nuts. When I got home, I also contact Naval Station Mayport. Since it was Labor Day, they had a skeleton crew working. I did leave 2 messages, one with a Lieutenant of Air Operations. To say that I am upset with what I saw is an understatement. Aeronautically speaking, what I observed is not possible. BUT I SAW IT! I hope I’m not cracking up.

I have 3 dogs and I walk them 1 at a time.At 10:00p.m. in the eastern sky I saw a bright light like a planet was closer to earth. I paid no attention to it when I walked my second dog. When I walked my third dog, that is when it started pulsating, and moved very quickly in a diagonal way, above me. Than it started to change shape, color, and size. It went from this bright white light, to aan orange smaller light, it was moving too slowly to be an airplane and it didn't have the red and green blinking lights. As it was moving north above me, it got as small as a star, and just kept moving slowly. Than it pulsated to red, orange, blue, and within a flash it shot out of the sky like a shooting star.

still craft hangs in sky flashing a sequence of three lights then falls out of the sky and vanishes.

DATE AND TIME: May 30th, 2021 at 9:13 PM EST LOCATION: Jacksonville, Florida 32244 SITUATION: Myself (name 1 deleted)s, my wife (name 2 deleted), and my brother (name 3 deleted) were watching a movie on our back deck, I excused myself to relieve myself near the gate entrance of our fence, I first looked up and notice what looked like an airplane passing by, but upon second glance I noticed that the object was not in motion. I quickly called over Ashley and Trey and the three of us bared witness to an unidentifiable craft hovering perfectly still in the sky. The craft appeared and was believed to be roughly five miles away and roughly one or two miles high in the sky. There were three perfectly rounded lights that looked to be the size of a small car that flashed in a sequence of red, red, green -- green, green, red, then back again. This sequence never slowed, sped up, or faltered.

The craft hung there in the sky and the lights sequenced this way from the time I initially saw it at roughly 9:12 PM, we began filming the event with our phone at 9:13 PM. From that time until 9:21 PM there was no change or movement. At roughly 9:21 PM the unidentifiable craft suddenly plummeted from its fixed point in the sky and dropped so fast and unnaturally it vanished behind a tree-line and did not reemerge. The craft was located in the west approximately 271 degrees west, and it sat in between the gemini constellation. In the video we are including , there is background noise of the movie we were watching, apologies, we do pause the movie I believe halfway though the video. At the 2:38 marker of the video is when the craft falls from the sky.

Three orb like, changed to elongated cylinder like, very confusing

I was meditating when I was alerted by two others to come to front of our home because they noticed something unusual. We talked, ever trying to exchange ideas what is it that we are seeing. This area has several flight corridors. Near Camp Lejune NC. At first there was one white orb-like joined by second. There were passing airplanes above. Took many videos and pictures trying to catch relative data, settings and methods were changed. Changed location to 302 King Richard ct. 28546 to get different vantage points and took pictures including relative cues from surroundings. We explored all prosaic explanations and researched if there were any balloons or other craft from relative live flight data websites.

Cigar shaped slightly illuminated object moving North-NorthEast.

Upon stepping out from my hotel room and walking the 75' or so feet to an area outside close to street. that I tend to smoke while I'm staying here, I looked up to North to check weather (clouds?) like I often do and immediately saw a slightly illuminated slightly hazy, long object moving that I first thought appeared like a comet with tail but realized shape was consistent end to end; a cigar shape for lack of more specific description. Slightly tapered on end closest to me. And same taper it seemed at other end. Moving consistent speed.

I thought, well, that's probably a plane lining up for Medford Airport but as it traveled slightly North-NorthEast at a consistent speed, there was never a single light blinking or otherwise as with an airplane. Nor shape of a tail or wings. And since I live in an area close to an airport, I have never seen a plane in a clear sky without a single light flashing at some point. And it almost appeared that the illumination might have been from the city lights of the Rogue Valley cities below and to East of object. Maybe not.

The entire sighting was 1 and 1/2 minutes tops at 10:35pm. Clear sky, some stars visible although there was immediate light pollution in area. Object elevation? Hard to say. Perhaps 7 to 10,000ft? If so, object would have been several hundred feet long. At least a couple hundred. No apparent change of course. Haven't quite seen anything like it although it was subtle and not at all clearly visible.

We saw a bright fireball in the sky that was very bright and moving slowly. Initially we thought it was a drone.

As it moved towards us, it slowed down a bit. There was no noise and no blinking lights. The object the moved a bit faster into the distance. At one point it stopped and made a quick change of direction to the right in a 90 degree angle. Then it seemed to quickly move amd fades into the distance.

Saw sphere ufo moving up and down and side to side driving back from airport.

I was driving back from the airport around 12AM and I saw a giant light sphere with someone off the side (maybe a ring or something). It was moving around in weird ways from side to side. I saw an airplane in the sky further away and it was WAY bigger and brighter with a different shape. Then it just went down and up and disappeared. So crazy I’ve never seen anything like it.

Orange orb-like object moving omnidirectional

Woke up while camping and saw an orange light through my tent mesh. Thought it was a planet or star until it started moving in all directions. Watched for about 10 or 15 minutes then it moved behind the tree line out of sight. From what i could see it looked almost like a crescent shape, and when it moved i could barely see a wave of whispy greyish/silver in the opposite direction of the movement

Light object in sky traveling East, disappeared like a ZAP in dark sky

I am a Truck Driver and Driving East on I-10 from Baldwin to Jacksonville FL, there was a bright light larger than a star but smaller than a plane flying East a little faster than a plane, but definitely not a shooting star. It then disappeared or ZAPPED to darkness in the night sky. In the area above the sky had stars and clear skies in my area of view so there was no reason for the light to just disappear.

Looked like stars, could have been satellites, but 50?

On April 30, 2020 at approximately 22:00 I was looking up while sitting on my deck.

What appeared as two of the brighter stars near each other, about the width of your first two fingers making a peace sign held to the sky, as I did to measure, were moving in a southeast direction.

Seeing them move was surprising. At about the rate of 5 seconds from my first to second finger. But, after that I saw more stars, there were no colors or blinking and the sky was clear. They came at the same spacing and continued. I counted 25 when I saw two side by side. After these, the single line continued and there came another 25 and again one pair side by side.

A minute after these ended, I saw a larger rectangle object, which looked like the space station. I had seen the space station before and this looked and moved like it, from west to east. But, I looked up the spot the station site and it wasn't supposed to be visible here until 04:00.

I read about the satellites in your site, but 50?

They moved all at once in almost a perfectly straight line. The line was diagonal had a downward slope if you look from left to right. There was somewhere between 10 and 20 of these star-like figures and they all were moving in the same direction, at the same speed, and at the same pace. The sky was dark and these figures glided across the sky and within no more than 1-2 minutes, the figures were completely out of my sight.

Red fireball string of lights miles in length staying approximately 1 mile apart in distance

Red fireball in perfect circles flying about 10ft above tree line. Very long line formation miles in length moving in a perfectly straight line staying the exact distance between each other maybe about 1 mile distance apart. They made no sound and moved like they were floating, but never swayed from an exact straight line and distance from each other. They never swayed from perfect formation. It was very strange and was not natural such as an ember from a flame. They moved almost strategically. They stayed in perfect spheres as if you contained a ball of fire in a glass sphere.

Multiple satellite looking objects with up to 5 in a row evenly spaced

Saw what appeared to be satellites moving North. At first it was 1 every 20-30 seconds. Later followed by 2 very close together moving in unison and then 5 objects moving in unison and evenly spaced. All moved in the same direction and many on what appeared to be the exact same path. Lost count at 18 in the span of 10 minutes. While the 5 in a row were passing there was a “shooting star” off to the side that was very bright, yellowish with a red aura and tail.

White red ball above nas Jacksonville

I was on my back porch having a cigarette when I noticed two helicopters flying around nas. One high and one low with spot lights on. The helicopters looked like they were looking for something. I went back inside to take my dog out. When I went out the front door I noticed a bright white light that would flash red every now and then. The colors were very vibrant. The light appeared to be above nas. I thought it was a star until it started moving up and down. Left to right and even did circles above nas. The light started to drift west towards Cecil field before slowly drifting down below the tree line. Me and two family members observed the light for almost 5 mins. I’ve lived near nas my whole life and have never seen anything like this. My one family member works on f18s and I used to work on commercial aircraft. We both agree this wasn’t an airplane.

I was out on my back porch watching the sky since it was clear and coming from behind me, over my place, were these bright white orbs. They were not normal satellites and were not the Starlink since they have around 60 satellites in that train link I call it. This had only around 8 of them and just soon as they were going over my place, they disappeared in thin air. I was only able to see them for a min or so each time one came over. They were in a line formation heading East of where I live, but spread out. Also around that same time a bigger white orb that was pulsating was flying over and heading South and seen 2 flashes of what looked like a strobe light just randomly flash, but I didn't see an object where it could have been coming from.

Loud Humming sound

Loud Humming noise. Unbearable Humming noise lasting 2 to 4 hours everyday for the last several months. It is so loud I am unable to sleep. My boyfriend can hear it as well. I reported it to the power company, thinking it may be a transporter. It has gotten so loud that I am going to have to move. It is a vibration as well. I bought some ear plugs , but it only provides small amount of relief. My boyfriend has put sound proofing on the walls but to no avail.

light appearing behind satellite, in front of it and then disappearing on 4th of July

I live in a pretty old somewhat historic area with very old large trees around my property in every direction that block any distant views. It was 4th of July here in the united states. My boyfriend and I had decided to go outside to see if we could see any fireworks at around 9:15pm central time, we witnessed a few fireworks of a local neighbor & were able to see part of the finale at the local shooting & sports complex that is adjacent to my house several blocks north of my house. Those were the last viewable fireworks we saw from my house, you could still hear the fireworks from several directions but we were not able to see them with all the very large trees surrounding the area. We continued to stay outside, we put a blanket in the back of my boyfriends trailer, both of us having back problems decided to just lay in it and look at the stars & listen to the radio, my boyfriend went inside for a cigarette and i laying there on my back in the trailer looki! ng directly up above me see a slow moving satellite just passing by then out of nowhere i see a gold colored oval shaped o light appear a bit of a distance behind the satellite moving at the same speed trailing it for a brief moment as if it was following it. then the light went out then it reappeared a good distance in front of the satellite & sat there like it was waiting for it to catch up as if it was inspecting it. the light went out again, then came back on a short distance ahead of where it previously was then it disappeared & zoomed off instantly. The sattelite and the object both went south. My boyfriend came back outside & I had told him what I had seen. we stayed outside until about 11pm, the object was not seen again, the satellite had floated off and no more fireworks were seen

Visitor for the heaves before the Falcon Heavy 9 launch on June 25 2019

It was between 0020 and 0050. I was walking Mickler Beach that is located in Jackonville, Florida.

I was there because I was waiting to see the launch of Falcon Heavy 9 from Cape Canaveral at 230 am. While I was waiting for the launch to happen I was observing the stars, at the time there was no moon. I saw a couple of shooting stars and satellites. When out of the blue I saw this bright light coming from the northwest.

I was impressed so I pull my cellphone and started recording. It was moving strangely, I concluded that it was no plane or helicopter, because it didn't make any noises and it was just a bright intermittent bright light. after two minutes it looks like it went southeast extremely fast or it went up (I couldn't see it after).

I am sending this video to see what it was. I didn't come to any conclusion.

Thank you!





((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS))

Thank you so much for the response.
Well like I said in the report I was at the beach. Exactly Mickler Beach. Its located in the city of jacksonville, florida.

I was waiting for the rocket falcon heavy 9 launch at 230am on the 25th of June 2009.
I don't know why my celluphone didnt picked any stars. It was a clear beautiful night. Moonless for a couple of hours.

I was looking at the stars and stuff up there. When from the corner of my eye I sae a shooting star. When I looked the direction in disapeard. I SAW this very bright light.

Then I took my camera and started filming it. It was doing some crazy moves. And the thing that caught my attention was that it didn't have any directional lighta requeird by the FAA on any fying aircraft.

I can't tell what it was and like I said unfortunatly no stars where picked up on my celluphone SAMSUNG GALAXY S10E.

It was doing some crazy manouvers and all of the sudden it was gone. Took of like to the south east.

I was speech less. And all I have ia that video and unfortunatlly I was the only one at that beach.

Again thank you ao much for responding.

I wish it had reference points.

I saw a report like back in april 30 I thing andit looks like thiS guy saw something similar.

I was outside on my porch skywatching, and after asking if any ETs were around tonight, to show me they are here and within seconds one flashed bright enough to get my attention. So, I flashed my little green laser light up near it and then it flashed extremely bright. I did it again and same response.

Then I asked it without the laser and it flashed extremely bright again in response. It made me cry because i was able to communicate with it and get an actual response in return! It was the best thing ever! After it left over my area, it headed SE and did not flash again that bright. It came from the NW direction from where I live.

USO picked up by tugboat crew moving in and out of water, radar

The witness was a tugboat captain and his crew was proceeding south 30 miles off Jacksonville Florida His engineer asked him what was a light which was approaching from their port stern at about the same heading as them (174° magnetic). When they first noticed it it was about 250 to 300 yards away not moving much faster than them which was 9.3 tks (knots?). He pointed out that it was submerged but glowing a greenish yellow light at first. He said it was the moon's reflection but the engineer pointed out that the moon's reflection was a little off their starboard bow. They continued to observe this light. As it slowly approached and got directly abeam of our vessel the captain noticed that his radars started spoking and showing a screen like they were in a heavy rain storm but the sky was clear and no wind to speak of. As this light continued to pass them it was only about 100 to 125 feet off their port side. At this point they could make out a round struc! ture between 30 to 40 ft. Round and maybe 40 to 50 ft under the water it continued to move south for about 3 to 5 minutes, then turned, west and cross their bow at a range of approximately a hundred yards. As it got about 30° to 40° off their starboard bow it came up and out of the water and became airborne, accelerated to a very high speed, and was out of sight in a matter of seconds.(MUFON CMS)

Activity after the meteorite hit in Florida

On the night of 30 March 2019, I was working as a security officer on the northbound rest stop on interstate 95, near exit 331. As I was making my rounds, I saw a bright object fall smoothly to the ground. It was too smooth to be a flare, or fireworks. Amazed, I walked over to a trucker and asked if he saw what I have just seen. He said no, we joked for a minute about UFO’s, and he went on his way.

I was still confused, so I returned to the spot where I witnessed the light. As I was staring in the area, two objects appeared in the sky. They were off set from each other. They were maneuvering unlike anything I have ever witnessed on this earth. At first I thought that they were flying bugs in the distance that were attracted to the street light. But they were flying smoothly around the area where the light fell. I was still convinced that my eyes were playing tricks with me, because the objects began to mimic my movement. They would glide back and forth in sequence. Then they would maneuver around each other. When I took steps forward, they ascended, then stopped, when I backed up, they would descend, then stop. I was convinced it was not my eyes because as I continued to stare, they started gliding again. This went on for about a good 5 minutes. Then, I guess they got tired of messing around and disappeared.

The objects reminded me of a dragon fly. They were not saucer shaped, and I did not see any lights coming from them. I would say drones, but I never saw two drones fly next to each other with that much control, and speed.

This report may be nothing, but I will never forget what I saw. I only wrote this report because, I was reading the news today, and they claimed that the light was a meteorite.

Star formation moving across sky

On Mar 22, 2019, I had walked outside my garage to look at the full moon and the stars. As I looked straight ahead, there was a star formation right in front of me that I had never seen before. It was sitting perfectly still. I said to myself, “where did you come from and why are you so close.”

As I stood there watching and thinking the formation looked like it accelerated and started moving about the speed of an airplane. I said you can’t do that!

I called my granddaughter to come look. It went behind a tree with no leaves, so it was still visible. I thought to show it to my granddaughter as it came from behind the tree but it disappeared as if swallowed or it turned off its lights or something.

It was comprised of 6 stars and was triangular in shape. A star formation is a perfect camouflage.

Extremely bright object glowed, shimmered and ejected coma within a regular cycle.

On or about 10/18/2018, between 1:30 and 2 AM, my wife and I were sitting on the back porch. No alcohol or drugs. Life long Florida residents, experienced with standard launch Southern views.
I'll
Shannon noticed a very bright object in the eastern horizon, just above the treeline. "What the @#&$ is that?" The object was ascending slowly with no sign of typical FL launch sightings. It's size compared slightly larger than Venus, and grew magnitudes smaller over the course of the morning. Estimate of 4 hrs time.

The object began to appear as though it were shimming in a triangular fashion, as though it were in 3 spaces at once. Well creating an inky pool or clouds from the already black sky. Visible current of this pool flowed orderly to the object. It would stop shimming and begin to eject coma in multiple points, growing in length many times it's related size in the sky. Something to the image of eyelashes and even the tear duct of the eye pointing west.

As we continue to observe I had attempted to get an image of the phenomenon. Armed with an outdated, cheap phone of the time. No images of anything telling could be produced. I attempted to draw what I was experiencing, and asked Shannon to describe what she was seeing. She viewed my post-it notes and said "Yes, That's what I see too."

It was regular and rhythmic in it's cycling. With each ejection, growing more distant, less noticeable and fewer details. It ascended into Orion and we were left with a memory of an event that could not be shared without fear of judgement.

Now with the current social consciousness and understanding I feel at least compelled to share the event for the record of history. It's validity unquestioned by us, though left to the reader to except or decline within their own consciousness.

Bright orange streak following circumference of earth, then abrupt change in direction into space and change from orange to white.

On September 10th, at 12:30am, traveling home to Jacksonville, FL, from a vacation on the west coast of Florida, we noticed a bright light in the air over the St. Johns River. We were traveling east on 295 about to go over the Buckman Bridge in Orange Park about to enter Jacksonville. The light was bright orange traveling north then upward, it looked like a bright orange Nike swoosh, then turned into a white light. At first I would have thought it to be a meteorite, but it was traveling along the circumference of the earth and made an abrupt change straight up, almost a 90 degree turn. Then it changed colors from a bright orange to a white light. My wife, two daughters and a friend all saw this light.

I was on telephone with my brother March 3. 2018, looking out my living room window facing beautiful waterfront right at dusk.

Very quickly a white disc shaped object zoomed down almost to the water then east and west and almost to ground at end of Pottsburg Creek; object zoomed across my view and disappeared.

I was unable to hit video on phone but did press camera. Zoomed (1 second) to south and disappeared.

I was yelling on phone to my brother “hold on hold on something over water flying over water”. My brother asked what but continued our conversation.

Driving down the road, we noticed a triangle formation of 5 extremely bright Balls of light hovering in place in the sky. To the left of formation or our right there were three separate light orbs moving at a high rate of speed towards the main formation which was holding position, to the other side of the formation was a single one closing in on the main formation as well. The craft appeared as incredibly bright balls of light flickering in and out a orange color.

As I started video recording, the 3 separate craft moved very fast and completely silently at a low altitude approximately 500 to 1000 feet in heigth and joined with the main triangle formation, at that point all the lights began to move north and faded out.

Strange rotating lights by Jacksonville airport

It was around 8:30 last night in Jacksonville and a clear night. From my balcony at Eastport apartments which is within 5 miles of the airport.

My girlfriend and I were smoking a cigarette, when I saw a light with rotating light switching from left to right to right to left, and then up and a rotating light. Also, the object changed direction rapidly. We sit out here every night and I grew up by the airport. So, I know a airplane when I see the lights at night.

The direction of the light/or lights was moving north. Paralleling the airport and the object, I can’t seem to change direction rapidly up-and-down and zigzag pattern and I would estimate that this is between my porch and the light had to of been 10 miles, if not more.

The lights were steady and change direction and every once in a while call us with flash as well as anyone else Sean this before?

Green two-dimensional figure

I was driving home and as I entered my neighborhood, I saw what looked like a neon green "S" and as i passed the object it slowly disappeared as a sort of "tilt shift" effect. As if the object could only be seen from one angle and it was very large hovering in place making no noise. The object was maybe 100-200 yards inn the sky and maybe 12-14 feet long from my perspective.

I am writing this as someone who does not believe in "ufos" and immediately tryed to debunked this as being a drone but there is no way that it was.

I am sincerely spooked out by what I just witnessed because with my knowlage of physics, nothing that I just saw was possible in any way.

Fast moving, black star-shaped object seen transiting the moon at 144X magnification.

Another Lunar Fast Walker? While observing the moon last night with a three inch (80 x 900 mm) refractor, I saw a black, star-shaped object transiting through the eyepiece field of view at approximately 17:57, EDT. [Please see the attached diagram for more details.] I was observing the Aristarchus - Herodotus area of the moon--near the lunar terminator at this time--with a star diagonal and a magnification of 144X . The waxing gibbous moon was rising in deep twilight, and seeing was excellent. At the time of the sighting, I had just switched to a 12 mm eyepiece with a 2X Barlow, and just as I was coming to focus with this combination I glimpsed a black, five-pointed, star-shaped object transiting from right to left through the eyepiece field of view (FOV).

All of this happened very fast--probably in less than 1 second--and my impression is that when I first saw the object it had already begun to cross the FOV, and I was only able to observe it as it moved toward the left side of the image. Again, please see the associated diagram for more details. Note that since I was using a star diagonal which gives a mirror-reversed image, the object was actually moving from east to west--the opposite of what is shown in the eyepiece view.

As a point of interest, this is actually the second of these objects that I have seen while observing the moon. The earlier observation took place on June 23, 2016, and there is a report on file with NUFORC. As memory serves--and going back to my earlier report to confirm my recollection--this is exactly the same type of object that I observed last year, and moving in the same east to west direction.

As I am at best a "casual" (as opposed to a systematic) observer of the moon, I am wondering about the reported frequency of sightings of objects of this type. Given that I have now seen two of these within the space of a year and a half, it would seem to me that others must also be seeing them. But what is it, exactly, that I and presumably others are seeing? ((name deleted))
