Spotted a Craft this morning.

Some sort of craft came close to where I was in Albion, Maine today. It came down just 150 to 200 meters above some nearby trees and it was using some sort of cloaking tech because it was using all of the surrounding colors to shield its appearance and I could taste a metalic taste and I could feel a tingling in my stomach and the craft did not seem to make any sound that I could hear but the birds and animals all around were not making any sound at all for the minute or so before and after this thing came through here. I kept waiting in expectation of a logical explanation. None came. I believe there's something besides us now.

Very obvious dark gray, best described as shipping container, gliding effortlessly across the pale blue evening sky. Flying around the height you would see a blimp fly. Couldn't hear any noise or see any lights. Just simply looked like a shipping container floating by. Witnessed by 3 people who all saw the exact same thing.

Possible mother ship launching smaller crafts

Albion ID - Last night(12/22/2019 at about 6:45 PM there was a super bright light above the Albion mountains to the west. I would guess above Willow Creek. I at first thought it was a snowmobile on the ridge but I then seen it was above the mountain. Very bright light. Then all these star looking objects came from it in a perfect straight line heading east overhead. Way way up there. They looked like stars but all were moving in a perfect line. When they got right above (straight up) they disappeared. They kept coming and coming...probably 30 to 50 of them. Then the light just disappeared from the western horizon and they quit coming. After the last one was gone I started to see a few returning but going slower and heading more SSW than where the bright light was at. Almost like they were returning from a mission. My thought are that I seen a mother ship of some sort and it sent out a bunch of smaller cra fts. A few airplanes went by while I was watching these UFO's and the planes were wa! y below them. I kid you not they looked like stars except they were is a perfect straight line moving east and very evenly spaced apart. This whole episode lasted about 25 to 30 minutes. Surely someone else must have witnessed this phenomenon as can offer an explanation. Nothing on the news about it this morning.
Did anyone else see this awesome sighting? BTW I do not drink or take drugs so I was not hallucinating.

Shape: Chevron
Characteristics: Lights on object

Individual light moves to intercept large chevron.

It was roughly 9:45pm EST; I was standing on my deck hoping to see some of the Perseids when three solid lights appeared slightly south west of my position roughly 90 degrees above the horizon heading in an easterly direction. The lights were brighter than most stars and solid, and they were moving about as fast as a typical plane or drone seems to move across the sky (much slower than the Perseids). I quickly realized that the three lights were maintaining a chevron pattern with the chevron pointing north making it seem as if the chevron was moving sideways west to east.

After I realized the nature of what I was seeing I realized the chevron was also accompanied by a low rumbling sound, similar to a plane but an octave or two lower and a bit quieter. A few seconds after that a bright light caught my attention in the east sky. I turned to see a bright stationary light had appeared due east of me approximately 90 degrees above the east horizon. The stationary! light was initially more luminous than even Mars has been recently. The stationary light began to move in a south westerly direction directly toward the chevron lights. As the lone light accelerated to the average speed of a plane or drone its luminosity reduced until it was no more luminous than a moderately bright star. As the lone light approached the chevron both objects became more faint, eventually disappearing in the middle of the southeastern sky.

The entire experience lasted a bit longer than a minute. During that minute the chevron lights never broke formation. The sky was exceptionally clear and dark due to the new moon. None of the lights flashed or blinked in the least, only ever reducing in overall luminosity.

A final note on the size of the chevron...the chevron lights were no bigger than large stars, but the chevron itself, if I held up my fingers, I could fit 2 but not quite 3 fingers between the lights. That distance never changed. The three chevron lights always moved in complete unison.

Stationary flashes of varying intensity occurring 10-60 seconds apart over the course of 5-10 minutes between 8:30 and 9:00 pm EST 09/23/17. This occurred in the south between the arm star Sadalsuud in Aquarius and the stars Scheddi and Nashira in Capricorn in a quarter-sized portion of the sky closer to Capricorn. Observed for 5 minutes then called a witness to confirm. Observed a plane passing below lights from east to west around 8:40 followed by a second plane at same degree above horizon passing from west to east around 8:50. Near 9pm Est lights could no longer be seen. Sky was exceptionally clear. Flashes seemed to be at a greater distance than planes. Flashes seemed to emanate from central sources approximately the size of stars. Some flashes were like brief glimpses of stars, others were faint and lacked a clear central source. Flashes lasted less than one second and did not move during that time. Though they did not seem to appear in the same spot twice.

Mom saw grey chevron shaped UFO move slowly toward lake at the treeline

While outside on the back porch in a town just off Lake Ontario, my mother and her friend saw a low flying dark grey chevron shaped object. It made no noise at all, was about the length of two cars, and flew slowly toward the lake just above the treeline. The UFO had no lights and continued its path with no interruption or change in speed. About a year later, another friend of hers called her and told her she had seen the same exact object moving north toward the lake. There has been a lot of undocumented activity I’ve heard of in this area for years and my mom or her friends wouldn’t think of reporting what she saw so I’ve taken the liberty of sending it in.

Large stationary craft Northwest of Albion

I was approaching the intersection of 100 S and 50 W. when a woman turned in in front of me and pulled up next to the field where I could see her looking at something. I looked over to the field and noticed a large stationary craft at quite a distance north northwest of Albion IN. I went north to see if I could get a closer clearer image for a picture, but when I came through the trees it was gone (maximum of 2 minutes. The sky was clear blue with silver cast and I had 180 degree field of vision and there was no trace of it despite looking all across the sky over the next ten minutes. Size was difficult to tell based on distance but I know it was at least as big as 2 Goodyear blimps. Color was hard to tell but I could discern metallic silvery white with some red orange but that could have been sun reflecting off the top. The shape was like two ovals connected at the end creating 2 levels.

Heading home late on a road I take every day. Saw lights next to a tower, at first i thought they might have been part of the tower and maybe I never noticed them before. When i got closer I realized that it was some type of air craft. At first it looked cigar shaped, not huge, maybe 30 ft wide. 4 LIGHTS seen from the front, they were red and white. Object was right next to the tower, maybe 50 - 100 ft from the tower...the same height as the top of the tower. Could see very well as I passed right by it that it was more of a triangle shape, maybe triangle more with rounded edges. Saw 1 or 2 lights on the back. Immediately called my husband. As I continued down the road i could see in my mirrors, that the objected slowly headed south across road, then slowly headed back towards the tower. I continued down the road about 2 miles to my house, seen it most of the way home, grabbed my husband went back out and couldn't see it anymore. The only light on ! the tower is one white light. Was Definantly not part of the tower. Did not hear any noise from the object. But looked dark, like black. Just 4 lights on the front when it looked cigar shaped, but after i passed and could see the bottom definantly looked more triangular. No lights on the bottom, all on the sides of the craft.

Small, slow-moving white point that faded in and out very slowly

At approximately 8:30 PM, I sighted a small white light heading SE from the North. It would become very bright for four seconds, then fade away into blackness; it would disappear for around five seconds, then fade back into brightness; each time it would get dimmer, until it was no longer visible. No additional or flashing lights were observed on the object. It was moving at a similar rate as to a satellite in orbit. Suspected to be space debris spinning in orbit and catching the glare from the sun.

me and 2 of my friends was walking from fairfeild to albion illinois on friday the 18th,the time was 4:30 we would walk for 20 minutes and take a 5 minute breather, while taking a break, i look up in the sky and notice "a bright star" or so i thougt, moving in a very unique way, in no way any airplane or other man made flying machine could every move through the skies. this "ship" was moving slow in one direction, then speeding up, and then turning back the same way it came. after examining this thing for a while, i made up my mind that it was somthing out of explanation, and after panning the skies, it became clear to me that there was more than one, i counted at one time in the sky more than 5 of these blinking lights. but i kept my eye on the biggest brightest one, at one point the one i kept track of stopped, i watched for about 15 seconds and then a red dot appeard miles away from the ship and in an instant both objects dissapeard, and in seconds the ship was back, and at one point the big ship was stopped and a little ship beamed a light to the big one, and when that happend the sky lit up. i felt scared, but i was amazed at what i was seeing at the same time. we kept walking, and i might add i tried to get my friends to look at these things in the sky but when they would look they just kept saying i dont see anything and wouldnt take the time to look very long. so we were walking and an elderly man pulled over to the side of the road, i asked if i could use his phone, he said yes, and when i took the phone i said "not to sound weird or anything but do you believe in aliens?" and told him what i saw and made him look. he too didnt see anything becouse he didnt take the damn time to actually look at what i was pointing at. and when i said sumthin about aliens, he told me there was had been an earthquake that shook the midwest, about 10 minutes ago. the whole time me and my friends were walking we didnt feel anything shake at all, and this earthquake was a 5.4 the biggest recorded in the midwest. so while the whole midwest region was feeling the ground shake, i was experiencing the most shocking time of my life. IF ANYONE SEEN ANYTHING LIKE WHAT I SAW THAT NIGHT OF THE EARTHQUAKE PLEASE SAY SO, BECOUSE I KNOW IT WASNT JUST ME WHO SEEN THESE THINGS, THEY WERE OUT FROM 4:30 TILL THE SUN CAME UP, THERE HAD TO BEEN MORE PPL TO WITNESS THIS

Disappearing Lights In The Sky...

Around 10:30 PM Eastern Time, I opened my front door to let my dog inside when I noticed a red light floating in the sky over the trees in the south-east towards town. I made a comment to those who were in the house about the light. I told them I didn't think it was a plane because I saw no signs of flashing lights. My friend, who was on the phone, came out to look at what I thought was a UFO. He didn't believe it at first, but when we continued to watch for about a minute, it suddenly disappeared.

The odd thing is, last night (March 3, 2005) around 7:30 PM Eastren Time, I was coming home from baseball practice when I saw the same exact thing. We watched it for about 30 seconds then when we turned the corner, it suddenly disappeared.

Multi-colored tear drop shape...Bright Flash...Time Distorted???

It was around 2:20 AM on January 4, 2004 when 2 friends and I decided to go outside and play a game of football. We were out there for about 3 minutes when we saw a teardroped shape object in the air, slowly descending towards the ground. It stopped roughly 100 feet above the ground. It had a bright green haze around the objects bottom and a orange haze around the top. We watched it for what seemed like five minutes when there was a bright, white flash emitted from the object then it dissapeared.

We stood there amazed for about 30 seconds and we heard numerous dogs beginning to bark and howl. When we went inside the clock read 2:56AM. It felt like we were only outside for 10 minutes at the most. How did time shoot forward half an hour?

Daytime sight

It was a post frontal day here in nothern Indiana. I was doing some spring cleaning in my barn. After taking some stuff to my burn pile I was looking at my barn trim because I have to fix it this summer. The sky was clear as a bell. I caught in my eye a white streak. It surprized me so I followed it with my eye. I walked past the trees into my side field to get a better look. My sons and I star gaze at night and we have seen satilites. Much to my amaze there was three objects. They moved at the speed of satilites. A jet was flying underneath them tracking west so I new they were very high. They acted like they were chasing each other with one sort of holding back. Four times they made a triangle and then darted around more. This lasted for almost five minutes. After the stunts they went to the northwest and I lost them in my sight. This was during the middle of the day. We can see real well in the sky. Out in the country. I don't know why I am doing this but it was real I don't know what it was but it happened.

This craft was not from this Earth.

About six years after discharge from military service,around 1974, and having ridden on many helicopters, my wife & child and I were heading home from my parents house shortly after dark. A distance of about 4 miles of country road. We saw what appeared to be a chinook type helicopter hovering about 3-400 feet over a swampy area about 1-200 yards off the road. An area I was quiet familiar with from hunting game in many times since my grandparents farm bordered this area on the North. I remarked to my wife that this was indeed strange to see this sight and couldn't imagine what it could possibly be doing hovering there. We got up opposite the craft on the highway, a somewhat remote country road and came to a halt. We could clearly see what appeared to be rows of window lights and some colored lights like aircraft normally have at night (red etc). I shut off the engine and lights and asked my wife to lower the window. She complied and then the hair stood up on my neck because there was absolutely NO noise from this hovering craft 200 yards away. I was shocked. My military familiariety with helicopters told me that what we were seeing was definately real, and not a helicopter. We were scared at what the craft might be, thinking UFO all the time. I started the truck, peeled out, all the time my wife keept an eye on the craft. We were only about 1/2 mile from our house and had a clear view even as we got out and into the house. I looked out of the East window of the kitchen, still viewing the craft and I immediately called my parents who would be in direct line if the craft moved Easterly which it began doing. My parents ran outside of their house to see it but saw nothing. It moved slowly Easterly for a few seconds then disappeared and was not seen again. We were all shaken by the event, and I to this day. My mother related a story of a UFO sighting in that same general area that occurred when she was younger and living on the farm adjacent to our actual sighting. The cows on my grandfathe! rs farm were frightened out of their wits by a craft seen by my grandfather when he went to the pasture to get them for milking. Normally they would be at the barn on their own wanting to get milked but this day were scattered and bellering like crazy. Grandfather never wanted to talk too much about what he saw that day except to say it was one of those UFO's. Coincidence, anybody's guess.

A bright blue-white light that hovered for almost an hour then quickly zoomed away.

I saw a bright, blue-white light in the west about 15 or so above the horizon. I watched it for about 15 to 20 minutes (maybe for a half hour), then awakened my parents. My mother got up, but my father refused to. My mother and I watched the object for perhaps another 15 to 20 minutes. The object did not move for all of that time. Finally, the object zoomed away to the north or north-west, first dipping "down" maybe 5 degrees and then turning "up" at a sharp angle, disappearing in less than one second.
