I watched an almost T- or cross-shaped craft hover at first above town. After locking eyes with it, it seemed to "pulse" or vibrate.

So, I was taking the garbage out. I could've thrown my trash away upstairs, but I didn’t want it to stink up our kitchen. So, without thinking twice, I ran outside. When I got outside, it was dark, which is normal in our area because of the lack of any streetlights. Normally, because of this, if there is a full moon, we get some light—not a bunch, but enough to make out something in front of or around you.

After throwing the trash away, I noticed that instead of the normal color of light projected from the moon (the white or bright gray we see), I noticed an almost emerald-green color. It was out of the norm, but nothing crazy. Because of blood moons, etc., I figured it was just the moon in a way I’d never seen before.

So, I looked up. I still don’t know why I didn’t just go inside, but I figured I’d glance up. No harm, no foul—at least, that’s what I figured. Until I noticed an enormous T- or cross-shaped figure.

At first, I felt a rush of chills through my body, as if I had seen the Lord Himself—similar to how it feels to be jump-scared. I stood there at the base of the driveway, staring in absolute awe. It made absolutely no noise. In fact, it seemed as if, when I trained my eyes on the thing, I couldn’t hear anything else. So, I had nothing but my eyes.

I would’ve gotten my phone, but I was afraid it would leave before I could come back outside. So, I stood in disbelief. The craft was at least 80, maybe 90, feet above my head and the town. It felt like it was going to descend and cover the town.

The craft sat there—stagnant, resembling a player lagging online. The thing was just suspended in the air, like it was being held from a string. I noticed the center of the cross had a bright green light or glow, and at each end of the cross were a bunch of smaller orange, maybe yellow, lights.

Still standing there, I wouldn’t move. I wanted to see how this thing would cloak itself. After about 20 minutes of nothing, my ears popped, similarly to how they pop if you’re submerged under a large body of water. At that moment, I realized I hadn’t heard anything the entire time I had been standing there.

Location details: Saw from cosmic campground, objects seemed to be near Eagle Peak

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Changed Colo

6 or more flying craft moving extremely fast and capable of changing direction quickly. Emitted weird light.

Went to cosmic campground to watch meteor shower. Noticed what we first thought to be helicopters on the NE horizon, maybe 20 miles away. Looking at a map later we decided they would have been flying near Eagle Peak. From about midnight till 2am we watched these lights- several flying crafts that had speed and ability to change direction inconsistent with helicopters or army jets. They would speed up, change direction, slow down, hover, and drop very quickly. They were staying in one specific area, as if surveying a canyon. Sometimes they would fly in pairs, other times no formation. Usually we could only see 2 or 3 at a time but briefly saw as many as 6 at once. They emitted an odd light that would dim and get brighter, and then disappear for several minutes. We watched for 2 hours trying to come up with a logical explanation, and could not. A few commercial planes passed by the area, and the lights became inactive while planes were in the vicinity. I wouldn’t say that there were lights on the objects as much as they created light, more like an aura. The hue of the lights changed, but not rapidly. They were for the most part white lights, but at times had orange or blue hues.

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

A single floating light moving erratically and with inexplicable speed in northern maine woods.

We were with a large group of family in July 2020. We were staying on an island in wytopitlock lake, glenwood, maine. Some family members were on the beach around 10:15PM when they spotted a light in the sky that was moving at a very fast and unpredictable speed. These family members called over to others who came down to beach and saw the same phenomena. One member was able to take a video (see attached) where you can see a bright light in the sky that is not moving in a straight line like a plane, this object was dropping and rising at a very fast speed and also flew away at an unexpected speed.

I was driving north on a local dirt road about 2 miles west of Glenwood, Utah. There was a kind of bright white flash and then saw a white light traveling North East. It was very quick with a trail behind it. My passenger also saw it as well. The first thing that came to mind was perhaps debris

Dark oval object seen to the right of the eclipse.

I was out taking pictures of the eclipse today and was just snapping away trying to get a decent photo. I did not have glasses so I was just pointing my pixel phone up at the sky with the camera set in selfie mode.

When I went into the house to look at them, and delete the horrible ones (which there were many), I noticed a dark spot in one of them. I zoomed in and saw something that I don’t know what it is. It certainly doesn’t look like an airplane.

Perhaps you can look at see what you might think it is. I will send the original photo and a zoomed in version via email. This was taken at 2:39pm today.

We saw like 6 green orbs weightlessly float to the ground and vanish.

My 2 friends and i were snowboarding at Kissing Bridge and it was relatively warm that day so not alot of people were there. We all wanted to smoke a cigarette, so we went off the trail we were on into the woods but still very close to other trails and people skiing and snowboarding.

As we finished our ciggs we all were looking in the sky as about 6-8 green spinning glowing orbs in either a hexagon or octagon floated down to a trail not far from where we were and then they all converged to one and seemed to hit the ground though from where we sat i couldnt actually tell if it touched down or not.

This was the last we saw of them. We even went to that trail to look for evidence of it and could find none.

five star like lights moving across the sky.

the five of us were sitting around a bonfire at about 10:30 when one of us noticed a light that aPpeared to be a star but was moving at an irregular speed. it had no flashing lights just one bright light. it covered the whole sky, horizon to horizon in about one minute.

A minute or two went by and we saw another one. we saw a total of five of these same star like objects. the last one however was a bit more interesting. as it was almost out of sight, the light became brighter than any other star that was in the sky, then changed direction.

After we saw the last one we saw three planes flying at a very fast speed and the pilot in the group sugested that they were most likely government aircrafts. coincidence? direction of flight on the last one was south to north, others were west to east or southwest to northeast.

3 brilliant stationary lights on nearby hillside went out and blue lights shot up and out of canyon with a sonic boom

It was shortly before midnight, July 1, 2012, when I and two employees, saw 3 huge, stationary white lights on the side of a hill overlooking my farm in remote section of southwest New Mexico.

We were stringing lights at the front gate with a ladder propped up in the bed of a pickup truck facing east. When I turned toward the west to grab another strand, I saw the lights approximately 150 yards away, each appearing to be the size of my tractor.

I hollered for my help to head for the barn and I took off running on foot as the lights went out one at a time. Before I reached the barn, I heard a very loud sonic boom.

My two employees reached the barn shortly afterwards and said they saw blue lights shoot straight up and streak at an unearthly speed south down the canyon.

My father was a Navy fighter pilot in Korea and Vietnam where he was CO of the first squadron of A-7 Corsairs. So I am familiar with the sound a jet makes breaking the sound barrier. At the time I was 55 years old and a former journalist having studied at the University of Arizona in Tucson.

My two employees were ages 26 and 28. We were all sober as we were precariously holding the ladder with one of them 25 feet above the ground wrapping the lights around the steel gate support. We were awaiting my son’s arrival from Phoenix and as usual he was quite late.

I was terrified to be out at night for some time after the event. But a week later we climbed up the side of the hill to a bench where we had seen it, but there was no sign anything had been there. I don’t know that anyone else saw it because I doubt my neighbor would have been out at that time of night and I doubt they would have believed me.

I have never reported the incident because I was unaware of your website until I read about it in the Wall Street Journal Sept. 2, 2020.

I do know there are UAPs and am quite pleased to report that I have not seen another since.

Saw a amber sphere traveling from west to east, stop it's flight and change direction away from the planet and faded away.

I was outside of a friends house looking at the waxing moon and discussing differences between stars a planets. Planes are common here, as the Newark Airport flight approach patterns cross our area. We noticed to our west a plane with an unusual color was approaching, it was an amber to orange.

We then started to discuss the fact that it did not have any blinking lights, at which my friend said thats not a plane. It was not moving at any unusual speed dining the first 30 seconds of watching it, but it approached the and past the moon about 5 seconds of travel, it stopped. At which I declared to my friend that's not a plane, it is not moving.

It stayed stationary for about 10 seconds and it made a 90 degree turn away from us and just move away from us until the light just disappeared. From the time it stopped it did not move across the sky it just faded until the light was no more.

The night was partially overcast, it travelled from the west to the ea! st, initially it came from a lightly clouded area into a clearing where the moon was.

Bright white light moving fast and low accross the horizon.

11/02/08 Glenwood, NY (south of Buffalo, NY) approximately 5:45pm

Facing North, I witnessed a bright white light moving East to West at what appeared to be a very high rate of speed.

The object covered the visible horizon in a matter of seconds (less than 5).

The object appeared to be low to the ground and visibly larger and brighter than any of the stars that were beginning to appear. ?????

Anyone else see the same thing?

Any explanations?

Three seperate, individual brite lights move in VERY fast, stop instantly, hover and then individually speed off at increadible speeds

I like to fish on night on Lake Minnewaska for walleyes. This evening was a very clear night with no clouds...the stars were out and I also like to look for constellations, aircraft and satellites. I only know the basic constellations but always look for them. Aircraft are very obvious "blinking" lights flying at consistent slow speeds across the sky. Satallites are difficult to locate but when one is found, it is a single consistent light that moves across the sky at a consistent speed within the earth's orbit. We also have emergency helicopters that occassionally come to town...these also have blinking lights, land at the hospital in town and then leave. These are all "identified" flying objects and I am familiar with them.

As I was trolling for walleyes from west to east along the south shore of the lake, I was looking up into the sky. I noticed a very bright light moving at a very high speed. It was traveling west as well as an angle toward the ground...but still very high in the sky. I was amazed at how fast it was going...20 to 30 times faster than anything else I had seen including aircraft or satallites. It then came to a sudden and abrupt stop in the sky and stayed in the same spot.

At that time another very bright light zoomed in even faster and stopped by the other lights top right. Then another bright light zoomed in just as fast as the second light and stopped at the first lights top left. This was all in the east sky just to the south side of town.

All three lights stayed in that same position without moving for about 10 or 15 seconds. Then, the first light bolted to the north and out of sight at an increadible speed...just as fast as you could point your finger and swing your arm...increadible speed! The other two lights remainined for about a couple more seconds...and then the second light shot off towards the direction of the first light at the same high speed. The third light quickly followed after the second light in the same direction and speed.

I sat there amazed with what I had just seen. None of the lights returned that night and I have not seen anything like it since. The ability for those lights to come in individually at those high speeds, stop instantly, hover and then dart off at even greater high speeds was definately not any aircraft mankind has or that I am aware off. It was litterally like the speed of light.

The reason I did not report this earlier was because, even though I strongly believe these objects were not from this planet, I didn't have any other evidence except for my observation. I also did not know were something like this could be reported...knowing my local police station would just smile when I told them what I had seen. But when I came across your website, I felt I should provide my observation to get it on record.

Strange lights running into eachother breaking off into more lights.

My friend was having a party, with a bon fire out in the country inbetween Glenwood, Iowa and Bellevue, Nebraska. Their were 3 of us kids (15 yrs old at the time) outside, and two adults when suddenly I noticed that there were strange blue lights that sort of looked like shooting stars in the sky. I told the rest of the people to look up and we were all amazed. One of the adults told us that it was probably just something from Offut Air Force Base, and to just forget about it, but it was to amazing for us to quit looking at. The lights were running into eachother breaking off into many other lights and created large circular shapes in the sky. After about 10 minutes of this occuring, I over heard the adults talking to eachother saying that the lights were starting to creep them out. Me and one of my friends rushed inside because we had a weird feeling that this would be on the news or something talking about an alien invasion, so we skipped through all of the channels and were suprised to see that it was not on t.v. We rushed back out there and suddenly the lights stopped. Everyone who was ouside decided to come inside as it was starting to get a little chilly. Every few minutes we would look outside to see if the lights came back, and around 5 minutes after the lights disappeard, strange beam like lights flashed from the ground up to the sky every few seconds. This stopped after 2-3 minutes and that was the last of the lights that we saw. I am VERY sure that what I saw that night was from a different planet as no aircraft that I have ever heard of runs into eachother.

Triangular object with very bright lights hovers over suburb, then vanishes.

Myself and another person first obsrved a band of very bright lights while looking north east. The center lights were brighter than the lights on either end. We first thought it may a plane but the lights were too bright. They were as bright as the lights in a sports stadium and it wasnt completely dark outside. We drove east to get a better look and ended up below the object. It was triangular and had approx 8-10 very bright lights shinig down. The object hovered in one place for about 30 seconds without moving. There was no noise form the object. It then rotated and left very quickly in a northeasterly direction. The rear of the object had only two red lights, one on each side, which were flashing. The object vanished within seconds.

I HAD SEEN AN AIRCRAFT ON THE HORIZON FIFST AS A CIGAR THEN A BALL

I WENT DOWN TO TAPPAN BEACH TO EAT MY DINNER. I PARKED NEAR THE DOCKS. I WAS LOOKING AT A STRANGE LIGHT THAT WAS NORTH NORTH WEST. I DECIDED TO GO HOME TO GET MY VIDEO CAMERA TO GET A BETTER LOOK AT IT. JUST IN CASE IT WAS WORTH TAPING. IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS MOVING BUT THEN SO IS THE EARTH. WHEN I CAME BACK, WHICH WAS IN ABOUT 5 MINUTES, I LIVE UP THE BLOCK. I SAW A LONG CIGAR SHAPED LIGHT GRAY TO WHITE OBJECT. THIS WAS IN ADDITION TO THAT ALMOST STATIONARY LIGHT. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS A PLANE CAUSE BEFORE I WENT TO GET MY CAMERA I SAW 3 HIGH FLYING PLANES WITH THE DUAL TRAILS OF SMOKE IN THE SKY. I THOUGHT IT WAS ONE OF THEM. I WATCHED IT FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS. IT WAS THE LENGTH OF ABOUT 7 COMMERCIAL JETS IF YOU LINED THEM UP. IT WAS MOVING REALLY SLOW FOR SOMETHING THAT BIG. IT WENT BY THAT OTHER LIGHT. I NEW IT WASN'T A PLANE WHEN IT LOOKED LIKE IT SEEMED TO TURN TOWARDS MY DIRECTION AND THEN IT TURNED INTO A BALL. ORIGINALY IT WAS HEADING EAST. THEN WHEN IT TURNED INTO A BALL IT STARTED TO HEAD BACK WEST. THE GUY AT THE UFO CENTER ASKED IF THIS MIGHT OF BEEN A BALLOON. IF YOU LISTEN TO THE TAPE YOU CAN HEAR HOW WINDY IT WAS. NO WAY WAS THIS A BALLOON. BALLOONS DON'T FLY AGAINST THE WIND. I ONLY GOT ABOUT 90 SECONDS OF THIS CAUSE MY HANDS STARTED TO FREEZE. I WENT BACK TO MY CAR FOR GLOVES. TURNED AROUND TO LOOK FOR IT AND IT AND THAT OTHER LIGHT WERE GONE.

I am a college student and a mother of a 5 and 2 year old. I had come home from a long day at school and discovered I had to run into town to pick up something to prepare for dinner. I got about a half a mile down the road and glanced up into the sky at my right and saw a bright shiney silver object suspended in the sky. Close enough I could tell it wasn't a plane or even shaped like one for that matter. It was shaped like a disk with a well rounded egg in the middle. I went home after going to the store and reported the event to my husband, and I was laughed at. So I summed it up to being delusional due to lack of sleep. It wasn't until a saw a special on tv last week on UFO'S that I decided to tell someone. At that time they showed the exact same object as I saw, which in away convinced me I'm not crazy. And ever since I witnessed the object hovering, strange things have been happening around my house electrical apliances coming on for no reason etc... E mail me if youre intrested in hearing more. I wouldn't swear this event happened in Oct. My life moves in semesters and all I know for sure is it was last semester.
