Object in daytime sky reflected light twice then disappeared.

Driving southwest at around 17:30 with another passenger and we saw a sphere in the sky that seemed to blink in and out of existence. Very similar in appearance to the planet Venus as it appears in the evening sky, yet this was before sundown. Sky was bright and well lit, and object was gray and reflective. It appeared briefly, as if it had been there all along and was suddenly reflecting sunlight. It disappeared then "reflected" light once more before we lost line of sight due to surrounding treeline.

Flickering light high in the sky with smooth drone-like movements.

At 8:30, I looked out my window and saw a flickering light. It looked like a star that flickers (switching from a green to blue to red color very rapidly). It looked strange, and we thought that it might be a plane, but it wasn't flashing like a plane.

Then my wife realized that it was moving to the left. I looked and saw that it was moving slightly. It went to the left then up and down in smooth motions like a drone. We then thought it might be a drone. This other white light, out of nowehre to the left of the object lights up in the sky. These two objects are the same size, but this new object is just a steady white light - not flickering. It is going toward the flickering light quite fast compared to the speed of the other visible planes in the sky. It then fades to black.

We decide to get in our cars to drive closer to the flickering light to see if it's just a drone. We drive for 30 minutes toward this thing, and we never got closer. It was way up in th! e sky. There was no way this thing was a drone considering the amount of time we spent driving toward it and yet we were still that far away. We gave up around 10:00 and went home. By this time we could not see it anymore, it was gone. I'm not a UFO guy. I just saw something weird, and I have no clue what it was.

Was standing there and we just saw it float across the sky completely silent until it just blinked out of existence

Me and a friend were playing outside a long time ago and we just all of a sudden saw a possible UFO floating low on the ground (like less of a mile) and it was just slowly floating across the field (like 10-30 mph), it was 2 orange orbs with some weird bright plasma inside connected by brown base with like 3 spikes on top (also brown). It lasted like a minute and a half to 2 minutes before it just blinked out of existence in the distance. You can see pretty far down our road so it was maybe a mile down the road before it just went out of existence. There was absolutely no clouds in the sky, and it didnt go behind anything it was just gone out of nowhere.

A very bright emerald green light sped from east to west, stopped and went straight up.

To Wit: I went to put the trash out, as I was doing so, to the south of my property I saw an emerald green light in the sky. It was traveling from east to west, and doing so at GREAT speed. It ( as I saw it) came from my left, and went to my right, (I was facing south). I am a US Marine, not given to flights of fantasy. I have been observing aircraft for many years, as I am a pilot. The light was constant, not pulsing in any way. It was moving VERY fast. Then it stopped and after only a half of second or so it went straight up until it was out of my view. After stopping and changing direction, I watched the light for 5 seconds or so. In that length of time I believe it was extra atmosphereic,based on my ability to determine the size reduction and rate of same. It could have moved slightly higher and reduced it's size similtaneously, however this did not seem to be the case to me, and I had no sense of this possibility at the time. Not knowing the distance to target, I unable to extraplolate the size of the light or source of the light. My best guess based on my experience is 15,000 feet Mach 2.5. or approximately 2250 MPH. I have never seen anything even close to this before,and with 46 years of information stored herein, I have no idea what this could have been. It was not "usual" and was unidentifiable with the limited amount of information. It was not a conventional aircraft of any kind.It may not have been a craft at all. Flight path and G forces endured would suggest other. However a platform for such a light does not currently exist in common knowledge. This observation suggests it does exist elsewhere, in fact it proves it (to me).

MY DAD had a deck beside the House, where i occasionaly sit & watch the stars at Night I sometimes go out to look at the stars once or twice a week...anyway i was watching for a good while, it was a dark blue night, about a couple of hours i was getting tired so i was about to go back in the House...i was getting up ready to go back inside, when i looked up and saw A BLACK TRIANGLER SHAPED CRAFT of something, i didnt know what it was at first i thought it was a KITE, but at 2:00am in the morning, i dont think so...i was trying to figure out what it could had been, i knew it wasnt a PLANE..it was to quite and too slow, and too low, about 100 feet above...it seemed as though it glided along real slow...no noise whatsoever, i watched it for a couple of minutes,I didnt see any markings at all it was just a DARK BLACK TRIANGLE, going up to my right a bit, i got down off the deck and to the edge of my yard just watching it just passing by our block, it didnt have any lights whatsoever it was TRIANGLER, about the size of a car, for what i could see...i've always been puzzled over this...thought about it from time to time...could it be a UFO i dont know...But for once in my LIFE I finally saw something really ODD that Night...it could'nt had been a STEALTH, too low, too little, too slow...
