Circle object, Sheffield, MA, shifted gradually, but in what looked like controlled and precise movements. Dog barked.

The crystal (looking) circle object was seen while walking our dog because he barked. The object was about the size of a VW Bug. The thing was over a cornfield near Boardman and Covered Bridge Ln. It shifted gradually but in what looked like controlled and precise movements. This was at a height veering from 80–20 feet before rising and virtually dissolving into the sky.

I saw a sphere of circular light with three linear lights shooting off from it - almost like a squid turned upside down - the bottom was the squid body and the lights were on top of it. The lights lasted for about five minutes and then faded.

Shape: Diamond
Characteristics: Lights on object

Two groups of orange diamond shaped lights moving very slowly (7 total diamonds) independently of each other and gone within 3 mins.

Thursday evening 8/25/16 8:15 pm Driving down Boardman St towards Maple Ave in Sheffield, MA, saw orange lights in the sky ahead of me ... high as some jets fly. They looked like small lights ... a bit diamond shaped ... a bit bigger than stars .. very orange in color. Saw two groups ... one with 3 lights and the other with 4. Each group was moving very slowly towards me and to the left. The lights within each group seemed to move independently of each other. Stopped my car and got out to get a better look. The group of 3 had disappeared. Watched the group of 4 ... got back in my car and started driving slowly still watching them and then they disappeared. Total time of sighting was probably 3 - 4 minutes.

The sky was very cloudy that night ... no stars or moon.

Background of observer: Berkshire native 64 yr old female. I am outdoors a lot. For the past 25 years I have been out walking daily (3 hrs/day) for bone exercise. Have seen a lot of shooting stars but never what I saw tonight.

Characteristics: Lights on object, Emitted other objects, Animals reacted

Multiple triangle shaped spacecraft seen buzzing from cloud to cloud on a full moon above the Tennessee River at the Shoals.

At the time, I was living in an apartment on the Tennessee River, also known as Pickwick Lake at Sheffield, Alabama. Unusually and out of routine, my three dogs, woke me up to go outside. I had them trained to sleep through the night, so it was strange. We left the apartment and went to the inner road and immediately I noticed how bright it was outside with smallish clouds suspended in the air above the river, their shapes perfectly defined against the black night because of the moon light. It was a spectacular view in and of itself. But then I saw something even more spectacular, these small shapes were moving about behind the clouds going from one cloud to the next, seemingly secreting themselves behind the clouds, and they seemed so close, like around 1000 feet up. There were multiple air crafts moving in a buzz like fashion, not like a typical airplane-like movement, straight with little variation. These were moving like you see insects move, like bumble! bees, or flies. I had never seen any air craft in my lifetime move like that with lights on it, no less. I stared at the scene for at least 10 or so minutes, completely aware that I was seeing something quite special and other-worldly. It was one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen. I felt peaceful and not at all frightened. The part of the river I lived on is considered a holy place to several Native American tribes that consider the river their 'mother', back before the Corps of Engineers changed it permanently with installing dams for hydro power. Formerly, it was a place the umbilical cord from newborns were thrown as an honor to their 'mother'. There is a famous story of a teenager forcibly taken on the Trails of Tears, and was miserable in Oklahoma, so she broke away and completely alone, walked back to the 'mother' or 'singing river' as it is also called, finally arriving five years later. She married a Methodist Preacher and became known as a premier medicine woman for the region, touching many people's lives, with ! her exte nsive knowledge of plants and their healing and nutritious qualities. The reason I mention this, is that the area the spacecraft were seen, is not some random stretch of the Tennessee river, it was a holy place for thousands of years before white man came and changed everything. I appreciate being able to tell you this story. I was unaware of your organization until I read the story about Idaho having the most sightings of any state in the first quarter of 2020. Everything I told you about the spacecraft sighting is 100% true and accurate. Thank you.

This was not a star. If it was it was the first ever stationary star that i have ever seen move

I was driving home and kept seeing a bright light in the sky in my peripheral vision. I drove a couple more blocks still seeing the light in my peripherals, till my curiosity took over and I had to look and see what this bright light was.

Once I looked and focused on the object, it looked like a stationary star but it was much brighter. All of a sudden this object moved leaving a tail behind it. This object seem to know that I saw it. It didn't move till I looked.

hi, this just happened 2oo ago. I was wal;king my dog just after sundown. It was dark. I heard a deep rumnbling that seemed to come out of the sky. This may seem weird, but after hearing this deep bass sound out of the sky(maybe),There3 were lights in the sky.They were'nt anything I've ever seen. I've heard sonic booms. It wasn't that. Actually ,right nnow I'm baffled. It was like there were lightd that manifested themselves in just a fraction of a second. It was nothing of this reality.

Occurred: 1988-07-16 21:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2024-04-30 08:08 Pacific
Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 3

Location: Sheffield, MA, USA
Location details: Field located on E Stahl Rd, treeline located 200-300 yards away

Shape: Light
Color: Yellow-white
Estimated Size: Unknown
Viewed From: Land
Direction from Viewer: NE
Angle of Elevation: 35
Closest Distance: Unknown
Estimated Speed: Slow at first, later extremely fast


3 independantly moving lights above treeline

Time is approximate, but it was full dark outside.
Year is approximate within 2 years.
Date is fully approximated, based on playing outside at that time frame.

I was playing with 2 friends outside near the house. Treeline was located a pretty far distance, but at the end of the property. We saw 3 lights hovering in a formation that made a diagonal line downwards to the right from our view. Lights were not perfectly still, and were moving independantly (shifting to different directions at the same time as others). After a few minutes of observation, 2 of the lights shot off vertically or nearly vertically at an extremely high rate of speed, while the 3rd light slowly sank down and to the right before disappearing into the treeline.

Night was too dark to see if there was any larger shape that lights were attached to.

While objects appeared over treeline and one descending below it, because they were lights, they could have been much farther away.

Observers were all children, approximately 7/8, 9/10, and 9/10 years old. While this may color analysis, I am in my 40s now, and I've only had one other encounter that might have been a UFO, and that one was vague enough that I assume it was an explainable event. This one has stuck with me due to the unnatural movement of the objects.
