This is at night. I was driving to work and just passed the aep laydown yard when i looked up. I first seen 3 lights on craft while driving. They almost looked like maintenance lights. I couldn't make out shape of craft but the lights were almost vertical in a stacked appearance. It was about at a 45 degree angle from the horizon. The lights I seen were not like any other aircraft lights I've seen. They were so bright. The object had to be at the least several hundred feet in the air. It reminded me of a cluster of desk lights pertaining to the hue and intensity. As I traveled in its direction I lost sight of it for a few seconds. When I seen it again it had veered to the left and started to go over the hills of the skyline at probably a hundred feet or so above the tallest trees, at this time the lights had changed into red and green flashing lights. I slowly lost sight of craft as it disappeared in the distance.

Dozens of orbs seen ascending, interacting with each other, fading, maneuvering

On the night of Wednesday, March 19 at 10:45 PM at my home south of Morgantown/ Sabraton, I stepped outside on my deck to enjoy the warmer air and listen to the peep frogs. In the clear sky I immediately noticed what I initially thought was a plane to the NNW, maybe 20º to the horizon. I estimate distance at 15–30 miles (?) from my vantage point. It was flying from L to R, and had a bright gold hue. I didn’t see any flashing nav lights. Then it faded out and got very dim and stopped moving. I thought “must be an airplane flying in a circle”. Then I saw other lights in the air around it twinkle and flash white and red. I watched this happen about three times – light ascends, fading in and then out, followed by smaller, dimmer lights flashing around it. This was starting to feel strange to me, so I texted my wife who was upstairs to come outside and see as well, which she did. About 30 seconds passed and another bright light “faded in”, rising up into the sky, flying from L to R, followed by more sparkles and flashes from other objects “parked” stationary in the sky near the vanishing point as it were. Over and over this pattern repeated, some objects ascending R to L, some L to R, some originating from points more to the South, at least a dozen more times. Some morphed into airplane like lights, but didn’t flash the correct nav pattern or colors. The dimmer lights flickered intermittently in the surrounding airspace. Several times, groups of 2 or 3 lights ascended together, bright gold in color before fading out. Sometimes, they traveled farther upwards or to the right or left before fading or dimming. We observed many dimmer lights zipping around in the dark sky in the area where the lights were fading. At this time, we noticed another light appear to the southwest, light blue in color, which stopped and remained stationary as if observing the ascending lights. It stayed in position for 10 minutes before slowly moving to the origin point of the other lights, then it appeared to turn on white and red erratic flashing lights, somewhat mimicking an airplane before flying off to the southeast. During this time, we heard no helicopter, jet or plane noises. But we watched dozens of these objects ascend, interact with each other, zip around and disappear. With the buzz about “psionics” in the UAP community, I mentally tried to interact with the objects, asking them to flash or come closer, which they seemed to do a couple times when I really focused my intention on them. We watched all this until 11:47PM when the lights seemed to cease whatever they were doing. I did try to get video a few times, but the lighting was too dark to capture anything. We ruled out satellites because of the recurring nature and also varied behavior, color and flight paths.

It had no sound. I could only see the bright blinking with the naked eye until I zoomed in with the camera.

I did not hear anything when I assume when it would be over me directly. Could only see the bright blinking with the naked eye. I took 4 photos of it with my phone. And was able to make out a shape. Has no wings. A bright light was in a different spot in every photo. Hard to define what the shapes were in each photo. I was facing north northeast when taking photos. It had a trajectory like a normal airplane but was only brightly blinking to the naked eye. I've photos airplanes in day and night at altitudes of 30000 to 40000 feet and easily made out the wings and fuselage.

Triangle ufo over shopping center, car sized or bigger

It was a "typical" triangle shape with lights on the corners (no noticeable light in the center). No sound, rotated slowly, and faded away into the clouds. It appeared to have "ridges" on the sides, not a straight line.

Hard to tell the size, but I'd say it was at least the size of a car, probably bigger.

I first thought it was a kite, or a balloon, for advertising a business.

If it were a typical quad-copter drone, I would expect it to "fly" horizontal to the ground, but it seemed tilted like a kite.

There wasn't any wind, at ground level at least. I fly kites, and it was higher and bigger than we fly our kite. I asked the other witness, and he said he thought it was the size of six cars laid out in a pyramid shape. (two car lengths a side). So my "at least as big as a car" is a conservative estimate.

I've seen quad-copter drones flying at night with lights. I even flew a toy drone a couple weeks ago. This didn't appear to look or move like one of those. And it definitely wasn't something you buy off the shelf. It would have to be custom, and super expensive.

It was over a pretty busy road, near a shopping area, and it had been raining earlier. Not conditions I would want to fly my custom drone in …. But people have weird hobbies.

It was raining and cloudy that day, and was just below cloud cover, so I suppose someone could figure out how high it was, if you figure out the cloud height from weather data.

We did get a video, but we were slow, and it's nothing you haven't seen before unfortunately. (blurry lights)

It was near a shopping center, so I would think there are a lot of cameras available, if someone investigates this stuff, anything around that shopping center, with video facing north, north-west at the given date/time should have been able to pick it up.

Translucent boomerang shape object with an illuminated edge that was very large in the sky, it moved fast across the sky.

I stepped outside to head out to the store and looked up at the sky. The sky was clear and the stars were out in full effect. I was just looking at the sky and I saw a large boomerang shaped object. At first I though it was a flock of geese, but quickly realized that it was not. The object was very large in the sky and travelling north with great speed. The object was translucent, but I could see it's shape. The outer edge was illuminated, but perhaps as a reflection of light? It didn't look like lights on a plane, more like illumination or reflection of light. The outer edge, did not appear as straight lines but slightly curvy, like a scalloped edge. It passed over quickly about 10 to 20 seconds across the sky. I tried to get a pic, but nothing showed up on my screen.

Chevron shaped craft rising out of a valley with a flowing creek

I was driving to work around 6:55am when I saw a Chevron or triangular craft raise out of a valley. The craft emitted no sound and moved very slowly and gently. I stopped in the roadway due to its close proximity to the lanes. it slowly turned and with what I assume is the front of the craft pointing west bound. It stayed hovering for approximately 10 minutes before shooting upwards and and then traveling westward at a speed so high it was out of sight within minutes. I tried to follow it but was unable to match speed and direction

3 objects low to ground

Was standing outside smoking a cigarette while looking up at the sky. 2 objects that were cube shaped but seemed to have rotating pieces off of the sides flew over my backyard. Right behind the 2 objects came a 3rd that seemed like it was slower than the other 2 but still very fast. Im Not sure how fast they were going but it would have been about the same speed as a bird. They all 3 disappeared over my neighbors house. The objects could not have been no more than 50 feet higher than my 2 story house. They looked like they were metal but had a weird reflective iridescent color to them with a low light haze surrounding the objects. There was no noise emitting from the objects.

Low clouds with 1 white glow sweeping east to west while gradually moving northward. Fast moving mile sweep.

Driving north on Kabletown Road with my husband. Just after dark with low cloud cover. One white light moving east to west in a sweep pattern that sometimes went out of sight and then returned. First white light was joined by a second light that moved differently for about 10 seconds but then the first white light flew next to the second white light and the two lights moved in sync. They pair flew east/west together about three times. Then both lights positioned directly in front of us, became stationery about 5 seconds. Then lights went out. No sounds. We had parked off the road to try to get video. Unfortunately the lights went out as soon as I put my phone our the window to record. All together we saw the lights about 3 minutes.

Formation of lights over mountain

My friend and I were heading west on US 33/SR 55 just before 9pm when we spotted some peculiar lights on top of the mountain directly ahead of us. There were six lights stacked horizontally that looked like lights that you see on top of a stadium. They were bright and didn't move at all. They looked yellowish white while my friend thought they were more pearl white in color. There was no movement at all, no flickering, pulsating or dimming of the lights.

About half a mile from where we first spotted the lights, the mountain would become obscured by a large hill on the right side of the road and we lost sight of the lights. We continued driving but never saw the lights again.

To clarify location, the Eastern Continental Divide crosses the road not far from where we had seen the lights. We would've crossed into Randolph County from Pendleton County. The road takes a sharp left turn before continuing west towards Harman, WV.

Based on aerial maps, the lights would had to have been over the Jacob C. Harper Family Cemetery or right near it. I don't believe the lights would've originated from the cemetery though nor from any other man made structure on the mountain. The proportions just don't align given the proximity.

Adding to the creepiness of the incident, as we continued west on US 33/SR 55, there was something on the road that we narrowly missed that was really strange, almost looked like a Halloween prop out of place or a dismembered figure. It could've simply been a branch that fell and was shaped oddly or even a dead animal, but the chain reaction of events was very odd.

Witnessed downward shooting fireball object while driving in vehicle.

Traveling home from visiting a friend in Pittsburgh, PA. I was driving West on Interstate 70. Just prior to exiting the ramp that takes you to the Kroger grocery store I briefly saw the fireball object slightly located to the right of me in nearby sky. It certainly was WAY to close to be a shooting star. Object trajectory was at an approximate 55 degree angle ..... downward. Sighting was VERY brief. Started out as pure white and has blue and green flashes appeared too. I immediately looked at the vehicle dashboard click which read 8:13 p.m. I had left Pittsburgh, PA earlier at 7 p.m. after visiting a close friend the prior day and was on my way home but wanted to stop at grocery store for something convenient to eat upon arrival home. I would be happy to be contacted if further information is required. I'd certainly like to know what this object I saw was. Way to bright and close to be a shooting star which I have seen MANY in the past. Thank you. I

6 white objects in straight line going faster then any plane

I was behind my shop burning brush. I was looking around, searching for planes and the Big Dipper. I leaned my head back on the chair, looking up. I saw 6-7 white objects in a straight line, all moving at a very fast speed, same size, same speed. Faster than any plane, with no blinking lights. I only saw them for 5-6 seconds before they disappeared, like someone turned out the lights. There was still more sky, but they were gone.

When I first saw them, I did not know what I was looking at, and I still don’t know what it was. They made no noise.

Could someone contact me to let me know what you think and what I saw?

We were camping. We were all standing on the bridge. 2 friends looking in the opposite direction of me

There was 3 of us standing on the bridge. My 2 friends where looking to the North where the Cheat and Big Sandy meet. I was looking towards the South. We all saw a bright flash of light. As bright as lightning. I looked up into the sky to the left of me and saw something that looked like they sky was tearing. The tear was ripping away from me. The edges of the tear were green almost like the Northern lights. Inside the tear looked different. It didn’t look strange it just looked… different than the rest of the sky. As it teared the edges of the tear began to curl in a bizarre way like a tessellation of a saw tooth wave.

By the time my friends turned around the thing in the sky I had seen disappeared but we all saw the bright flash of light that happened before it.

The flash was as bright as lightning. It illuminated the bridge. There was also a very big meteor that broke up and streaked across the sky that night. It wasn’t that. We saw that meteor. Later that night. Im not sure of the exact time. We were camping and none of us had a phone/watch on us. Ive tried to do research into what is was and looked up videos/pictures of meteors exploding to see if that was what I saw but it wasn’t. Night of October 5/morning of the 6th.

It was huge yellow orb hovering behind cloud . Sun was at 86 degrees sww.

I was letting my dog out and noted a huge yellow orb behind some clouds in front of my house. I thought the sun was very very low and bright on this cloudy rainy day. Then I thought wait it should be to the west it's almost sunset so I googled position of sun at that moment and it was at sww 86 degrees. So I was not the sun. It was not the moon because I checked that and it was 96 degrees to the east and it was still daylight but gloomy so this yellow orb was bright. Then I noted the cloud started to move and orb went with it about 10 degrees then it was gone. Just vanished. Shook me up.

Roaring noise in sky lasts 5 minutes then fades out

The following incident occurred at Blackwater Falls State Park in West Virginia during the late morning hours on September 5th. This was the final stop following a trip to Baltimore the night before for a concert. I had planned to pull an all-nighter following the concert, having left Baltimore just after 2am, then traveled a few hours west on I-70 and I-68 through the mountainous terrain of western Maryland. I stopped for breakfast at Denny's in LaVale, MD sometime after 5am then decided to go up to Dan's Rock, a mountain overlook at approximately 3,000 feet in elevation, to catch the sunrise. I leave for West Virginia after that.

I get to Blackwater Falls just after 9:30am. It was broad daylight, not a cloud in the sky. There was nobody other than me in the parking lot. I walk down from the parking lot to the boardwalk which meanders down the hillside leading up to the falls. I check out the falls, take a bunch of pictures and walk through the wooded terrain. At this point, it was past 10:15am. A few people had also arrived.

I start to ascend back up the hillside towards the parking lot. As I'm walking down the path, I hear the loudest roaring sound overhead, which seemed to come out of nowhere. It went from just being noticeable to being immensely loud unlike anything I've heard before. That lasted for a good 5 minutes or so. I couldn't see anything overhead as the trees were blocking much of the sky. I kept walking as this sound continued, then before I got to the parking lot, the sound faded out and then nothing.

I went to the gift shop to buy a drink. I asked the cashier if they had heard the sound and they said yes. They acknowledged that it seemed odd, but they were working and didn't see anything. The area is remote and mountainous and the nearest airport is over 50 miles away.

Looked like bottom right curve of moon, was soft red and orange.

My boyfriend and I were driving to Martinsburg from Shepherdstown and had just gotten over the bridge by the Opequon Creek access….I saw what I thought was the moon, specifically the lower right curve as it goes back upwards. It was a soft red, also saw a soft orange glowing behind it. I asked my boyfriend the typical “What the hell is that? Is that the moon?” to which he replied he saw it too but was unsure. We were unable to see it again for the rest of the journey and back to Shepherdstown. Will be watching our dash cam soon to see if it caught what we saw and possibly debunk

Facing north looking up when large, fast-moving bright white “star” appeared at 1 o'clock darting to 11 o’clock then disappeared in tree

Could have been shooting star (speed similar to meteor) but no tail or “sparks” of debris breaking off. Popped into field of view. White light that appeared to pulse as if perhaps rotating. Flatter, rounder circle than a star or than the meteor I witnessed many years ago. Much faster moving and appeared much lower than the airplanes moving through the night sky. Moved in a straight line from north northeast to north. Happened so fast it was over before I could get any words out if my mouth. Disappeared as I was starting to blurt out, “Look at that!” Immediately I described it to the others I was with. We stayed outside for another 1-2 hrs but saw nothing else. We’re hoping to catch a glimpse of the northern lights but did not. Could have been later than 8:30 pm - perhaps closer to 9. Sky was getting dark but not yet fully dark.

Floating green orbs above tree line

I was looking for my cat behind my apartment I noticed a green illumination and heard a faint humming near the wooded area across the creek at this point I looked up in to the trees my first thought was lightening bugs but it hasn't been warm enough for them these orbs seemed to notice I was looking at them and began to flee very panicked yet organized they moved quickly and the humming intensified they stayed low in the wooded area. I rule out drones due to the heavily wooded area and size of the objects very small but got bigger as they grouped together above the trees and strobed until disappearing. After seeing this I went back inside and remember nothing from that point I have a few lumps under my skin above my knee that where never there before. I would rather talk in person I'm afraid to share my story and fear the government.

I made a post on reddit about it just to see if I could work this out my self. Several times in my life I've "seen" what you could describe as grays. I could always write it off as something, drink or drug. About four months ago I was in my apartment and thought I heard someone in my apartment. The details are in my reddit post which I'll link. Https://www.reddit.com/r/HighStrangeness/comments/1csu1ex/saw_something_in_my_apartment/

I don't know what this is. I would most definitely like to know more, if you can help me at all.

It didn't look real. It looked as though it were being projected from somewhere else, maybe holographic but this felt different than just seeing light reflected off of water vapor. There was an actual pressure on my eyeball. I also experienced very strange audio anomalies that I don't know I could accurately pick out of a battery of random vibrating sounds. There was another sound with the first that I'll describe as a chain rattling/gear on webbing shifting to and fro, it's difficult to describe because at the time my ears discerned no pattern.

I just want to help my species understand this thing, and I'm prepared to do whatever I can for the common good of the species. God that sounds corny.

they were both stationary for the few minutes I watched and then they both flew straight up and through a cloud

It's partly cloudy out. Somewhere over the cell tower there were two dark silver dots, which I first assumed were birds. I just happened to look up and see them and then I noticed it looked they they were stationary. I then assumed it was some sort of optical illusion - maybe an airplane at the perfect angle - but they stayed the same for about two minutes, based upon the last text I sent before I looked up, until the time I looked back down at my phone. They did not move or change shape or color. suddenly, they both went up higher and through a cloud and I lost sight of them. I waited to see if they'd return, but they disappeared. I went back to the same vantage point after the sky cleared up more and there is nothing there over the cell tower. no maintenance being completed, no overhead wires, nothing that would be mistaken for what I saw

Location: Beckley, WV, USA
Location details: This is where we were when I first saw it. But it was visible until Pittsburgh.

Shape: Orb
Color: White
Viewed From: Aircraft
Direction from Viewer: 330
Angle of Elevation: 10
Characteristics: Lights on object

My captain and I saw moving stars. Looked kinda like satellites.

First off this is apparently a very common sighting among pilots at my airline. I am new and this was my first time seeing it.

Last night we were flying from Florida to NY. We were at 33,000’, and over beckley airport in WV. My captain pointed out to me the thing four other captains had mentioned previously. This was my first time seeing it.
On about a 320 bearing from our present position he pointed out a star he told me to watch. It stayed completely unchanged for about 10 seconds, and suddenly disappeared instantaneously. Then it reappeared about two inches to the right of my perspective, but dimmer. Then it started moving subtly down the windshield while simultaneously getting brighter and brighter until it dwarfed the brightness of all other stars in the sky. It also appeared to get bigger, as if it was accelerating toward us. It instantaneously disappeared again. This process repeated over the next hour. It moved up, down, sideways, and sometimes completely still. The speed at which it climbed and descended tens of thousands of feet made use know it was not an airplane.

Sometimes there would be two or three of them at once. They did not act in sync. They all seemed to move, dissapear, and reappear randomly.

From the reports of other pilots, it seems that these things showed up about a year ago and have been showing up consistently. They can be seen almost any clear night when you have view of the western skyline from the east coast. I do not know if they are visible from the ground. My guess is they originate from the same spot because I saw them from a 330 bearing in WV, but other people tell me they are usually on a 270 bearing from NY, which seems to line up.

We have had sightings nightly for 3 or 4 nights now but this has occurred for years here

There's so many close encounters we've had these things in our home, I've had missing time, lost consciousness when being told w telepathy what window to find then out of. The spheres grow in size, interact w us, look so magical at times. Not sure why we've been chosen to be allowed to see the phenomenon, but we feel blessed by being able to know about the truth. Once I was fully paralyzed in my bed and a entity was in my bedroom. I had bloody hollow holes in my belly from it next day. These ufos seem to be on a important mission on this ridge. I see them go in and out. We have seen a huge flying being watching us and he/she allowed us to get clear photos and video of it flying into the woods. I wish someone would come get data off all these sightings. Ben missed to learn more about this amazing phenomenon and why we have Ben chosen to see thus and interact w them..

Latter Rack on top. Was literally like in Harry Potter and driving the flying car. I almost passed out. This is now my 2nd sighting in 3 years …mount Hope wv.

Bright lights moving around, could see glowing from going above and through our clouds

I was at my friend’s house out in the middle of the woods, away from main roads. I went outside to pee because they’re in the process of building their house, and through the trees I noticed this bright light in the distance moving around and getting smaller then bigger. I watched it for a minute and got scared and tried to get everyone’s attention. Nobody cared. So I went back outside and started watching the sky again, and my friend was with me. I started seeing two to six lights like stars with a glow around them, (from the clouds, coming through our atmosphere and back out, no other stars had a glow like that) moving around in one direction and then it would change and go another direction, there was some that would morph into each other, circle each other and then become one, they would go away completely and then come back in different spots. There was one that would get extremely bright, and would move around and then I could see a cloud of light then it would disappear again, then come back in a different spot and move around. I watched these in the sky for about two hours. I watch the night sky every night and have for about 3 years now. I’ve never seen anything like this. I know what Venus and Jupiter look like and where they’re at, I know what starlink looks like, I know what planes, satellites and drones look like, these were none of these things. To me, from my perspective on the ground, all I could see were lights but they maneuvered around and looked like some sort of vehicle in the sky with a bright light on them to see. They could turn these lights off and on also. There was intelligent thought in the way they maneuvered. I could tell these things were going in and out of our atmosphere extremely fast for as high up it was, and they were looking at our ground here. I know this sounds insane but I’m a fairly intelligent person and I’ve been watching the stars for a long time and I’ve never seen anything like this.

Bright white light weaving back and forth in the sky above us.

My boyfriend and I were sitting in my car in my driveway talking after we came home late one night, around 1:30am. We noticed a light that was bobbing and weaving all around as it came up over the eastern tree line back past my pond, about 200 yards from where we were parked. It proceeded to fly over to where we were parked at and hover in the air almost directly above us, I would have to guess and say it was maybe 100 feet in the air but close enough for us to use binoculars to see the triangle shaped bright white light with 2 red lights, one on each side of the top point. It's probably 4 or 5 feet at its widest point. We could hear a loud buzzing sound the entire time it was present. A few times it shined a beam of light down like it was looking for something. We watched this strange light for hours. I downloaded a sky map and it wasnt showing up on it. We also noticed lots of birds were chirping loudly the whole time it was there too. We continued to watch it until daylight when it started to get higher in the sky until it disappeared. It has came back every night since and we watch it every night. It comes up over the back treeline by my pond and will come so close to us and hover there moving back and forth in the air all night until daybreak then it leaves. We have pictures and videos but not very good quality because they were taken on a phone sitting inside my car.

Glowing rocket shaped craft

I work overnight at a hotel. Right after daylight I walked outside. I look up and I noticed what I first thought was a plane. I noticed there is no exhaust or sound and it seems to be glowing. I watch it for probably less than a minute. I see it going above clouds and coming back into view. What was clearly a rocket or some other elongated shape suddenly became a dot and disappeared as if it shot into space.

I was looking at the big dipper and seen this light intensify for several seconds and it slowly faded away.

This white light that appeared in the sky. At first I thought might be a satellite. But this time of night there are no satellites that bright in the sky. I kept my eye on this. The light did not move. But it started to slowly fade away. After it faded away was when I extended hands. If I put my pinky finger on the big dipper handle and widened my fingers and my thumb would be where this light was. I did shine a flashlight up to the area to see if there was something there but nothing was there.

Shape: Orb


Metallic orb flew over our house - silently and at low altitude

Sitting on back deck in early evening. Watching planes overhead and tracking with Flight Tracker app. Noticed an object coming towards us. It seemed to be a low altitude, but I would be guessing - maybe around 2,000-3,000 feet. It was low enough and close enough to the ground that we could visibly see it spinning. It was a round, shiny silver orb that seemed to have small fins on it that would glisten in the sun. That was how we knew it was spinning - we could literally see it turning. It flew very smoothly, in a straight line, directly over our house from south-east to north-west and out of sight. No sound. No blinking lights. No exhaust or contrail. I took a video which I will try to upload. If you zoom in on the video, you can see the object get bright and dark as it spins. It was not a plane - I checked the flight tracker app. It was not the ISS, it came over (north to south) several hours later. I am familiar with rocket bodies, comets, balloons, etc as I track a lot of things in the sky. This was completely different and very much what I have heard described by other sightings of metallic orbs. It was unlike anything I have ever seen. My wife experienced the same thing I did and she is a huge skeptic of UAP/UFOs. If my video uploads, check out the second object that appears to come from the top of the screen and pass the main object at the :24 second mark - could be a bug, but we only caught it by going frame by frame. UGH - I can't upload the video - that's all I have. If you'd like to email me, I will gladly share it. It's certainly not a fantastic video, but you can see the object spinning by the sun/dark/sun pattern. "Honey, there's a UFO - grab my worst camera!" Ha ha!

Upon leaving Dulles International Airport and as I was headed to my car of the parking garage at 9:29 PM, I observed and erratic moving light shaped like an elongated oval darting through the sky. I took a video of it because I was fascinated by this random object. During the video capture, one other woman, whom I did not know, observed the same object and joked it must be a UFO.

3 orbs/fireballs in triangular formation flew silently at mountain top level. Made no noise, made 90° left turn and disappeared

At around 10 at night, I stepped out of my backdoor, facing the Guyandotte River. I looked up and saw the UFO(s). Three large red/orange orbs or "fireballs" in triangular formation, with what looked like fire dancing between the three well defined orbs. The UFO was at the level of the treetops on the mountain facing my home, far below the clouds.

I could not see any surface (ex such as the surface of a craft or crafts) connecting the lights. It flew slowly overhead, making no noise. I thought to myself that it was very strange, and then the UFO made a perfect 90 degree left turn and faded away. There was no sound or trail of object. There is zero possibility this was a conventional aircraft such as a plane or a helicopter. Again it made no noise, and I was close enough that I would have seen and heard the shape of the hypothetical plane or helicopter.

I remember seeing the stars in the night sky, this object was certainly not a star. It could not have been a meteor as there was no trail and the object made a perfect L shaped turn.

I was not under the influence of any substances, nor do I suffer from hallucinations. I was wide awake, this was not a dream.

I included a digital drawing of the object, as well as the exact direction I was facing when I saw it. I hope this can be of some help. I would have reported sooner, but I tried to rationalize all the possibilities and nothing makes sense. I apologize that I can't provide the exact date and time, but I know it was the week of May 8th 2023.

Thank you

Location details: walking dog in town clear skies

Shape: Formation
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby, Animals reacted

White light formation, Multiple formations of differing number.

I woke up at 12:45am but did not know why, I laid there and tried to go back to sleep and could not. after 10 or 15 min I decided to go downstairs to get on my P.C.

At around 2:35am my dog started to whine like she wanted to go out, so I finished getting dressed and took her out to a large patch of grass behind my home. We were out for maybe 3-5 min (just long enough to get out there and start doing her thing) when I noticed a very bright star out of the corner of my eye, or what I first thought was a star. I turned to my left to focus on it when I realized it was moving. The luminosity of this first object was 3 time the brightness of Venus and was the largest and brightest of the event. I was looking roughly north, and it was roughly 45 to 50 degrees in declination (I downloaded a compass on my phone the next day and found it was roughly 50 degrees from north). This object appeared to be moving from south to north at a slow rate with a slight arc to the east. After maybe 10 sec (long enough to think "it's not a star, or a plan") when it started to decrease in luminosity (at the same time it started to arc east), and after 5 sec it had vanished.

I was standing there thinking "that was #@$% awesome" when I spotted another light in roughly the same direction but lower in declination, say 35 to 40 degrees. This light was half the luminosity of the first one at its highest lamination and appeared to be coming towards me from the north moving southeast. This object moved quickly for 5 sec then slowed down to almost a hover. It remained in roughly static position while two more objects came in from almost the exact direction and formed up with the first. At this point I was dumbstruck. As many times as I have heard stories like this, and I always thought to myself "why didn't you take a video". I now understand. I stood watching what transpired completely transfixed on what I was watching. I would say that the objects I seen were controlled do to the fact that they assumed a triangular formation and started to travel to the east and descend below the ridgeline at the edge of town. I was watching the ridge to see if they came back out when I noticed another light coming in from the same direction and declination rapidly followed by another. These two did not slow but continued in the same direction as the first 3. I kept watching for a few minutes and was just starting to think it was over when a group of 2 lights at the same time came in, from the same area of the sky, and got to roughly the same spot in the sky where the first three hovered and stopped. They set there for 2 minutes or so when another 3 lights came in and formed up with the others. They hung there for a few moments, and I figured they would replicate the first set, but they remained in position for another minute or 2 when another solo light came in and formed up with the rest in no real formation, just grouped together. As soon as the last light arrived on station with the others, they all followed the same path as the first 2.

At this point I actually looked around to see if there was anyone that I could attract their attention when remembered it was the dead of night. Another 2 lights started to come in and I thought about calling my wife and waking her up, when I remembered I had a phone in my pocket. I took my phone out (time on the screen when I went to unlock it was 3:14am as I made a note of the time) and turned on the camera. I set it to video but could not see the objects even when I zoomed due to the streetlights just below the area of the sky I was watching. These two objects moved continually and on the same path. At this time a large meteor started to streak above my head moving from south to north and broke up and faded at about 50 degrees of declination at roughly 40degrees from north. I remember actually saying "whoooa" out loud after it faded. Within a minute or 2 another light started to move from the same area in the same direction as the other objects rapidly followed by another entire group of lights (I did not think to count them, but the total number of lights was about 8 to 10 in this group). They all grouped up at roughly the same point in the sky, hovered for 30 seconds or so then followed the other’s flight path. This was the last sighting in this event. All of the lights seemed to be roughly the same size and brightness.

I stood there for some time watching for another set, but in vain. I also scanned the rest of the sky to make sure I was not missing something else, but there was no other traffic in the sky. As I stood there my rational brain kicked into high gear, trying to rationalize it out. I know Pittsburg is in roughly the same direct, so I thought maybe I was seeing air traffic going into there. But I could not explain the hovering unless they were turning in at an angle that could make it look like they were hovering. I came back in and opened google earth and from where I was standing during the sighting to PIA it is 67.4 miles. I went to their website and checked for arrivals, and they only had 2 flighting arriving during the timeframe of the sighting. Add to that the ridgeline in front of the town being roughly 25 degrees in declination I am not sure if I could even see traffic that far off (my trig is a little rusty).

I have seen star links, and this was nothing like that. I have seen a couple things in the sky in my life that made me really reason out what I was seeing. The others I could not rule out a satellite or the ISS. This time, this time I have no clue what it was I seen in the sky.

We were sitting watching stars when a massive triangular craft with 3 white lights on the bottom, flying very low, no noise flew over.

We were sitting in our car trying to get a signal on our phone , when out of nowhere, a pitch black very huge triangular craft with 3 white lights on the bottom of the craft. it appears out of thin air,my fiance, and we had our daughter with us who now bieleves us , that there are ufos in west Virginia. It truly was amazing it was flying very low,so low I thought it was going to land right beside us. You couldnt hear any kind of noise powering the craft nothing total silence when it flew over. We did happen to get a short video of it. This is the 3rd sighting on elkfork road in wv that my fiance and I have personally witnessed. This one was different though it was so big I cannot explain how big this craft was. It was flying so low I nearly had a panic attack, because I wasn't sure if I was really seeing what my eyes were really looking at.

Reddish orange sphere hovering above neighbor's residence.

I awoke randomly @ 3:30am to use the restroom across the hall. On the way back to the bedroom I noticed out my second story foyer window an orange light. I thought I might be seeing a reflection from brake lights on the window or perhaps an airplane or helicopter, but there were no cars or aircraft in sight, and it was dead quiet outside. I stepped forward to get a closer look and I observed a reddish/orange sphere that had a bit of texture to it, similar to TV static, that appeared to be moving slowly, while the sphere remained still. The object was roughly 150 feet off the ground above my neighbor's home, which is at a slightly lower elevation than my home. The area immediately surrounding the sphere was illuminated with the orange color, yet there were no clouds around it at that elevation to explain how this was possible. Nothing to reflect off of, in other words. I watched for another ten seconds or so and then the object started to slowly travel to the Northwest and then rapidly accelerate towards the mountains off in the distance, which are about 4 miles away. I have a clear view of the mountains from this window. The object covered this distance in a matter of only two to three seconds, getting smaller and smaller, eventually disappearing over the mountains. I was not outside to confirm of course but did not hear a sound at all while it moved away from me. The entire encounter lasted about 30 seconds. I have no explanation for what I witnessed.

Looks like a very bright star, but moves (mostly back and forth slowly). It moved down ~2 degrees in 10 min. Cloud cover it sometimes

It looked like a normal star, albeit very bright. I believe Venus was visible just above it, both were equally luminous and the same apparent size. What I believe to be Venus (according to TheSkyLive.com) stayed still the entire time while this object swayed. We were looking through the tree line, though no leaves are present on the trees and low to moderate winds. As we watched, the object would sway back and forth (side to side) repeatedly— far enough to be a noticeable sway. Clouds would pass over this object and it would become much dimmer, but as the cloud moved past it would reappear (at least we believe it’s clouds, it is night so it’s kind of hard to tell). After 4-5 minutes, it had moved to a lower angle, possibly 23 degrees above the horizon or so. We went back inside, but about 20 minutes later I went back out to see it again and it was still there. The possible aura or haze that I am checking may be due to astigmatism (which both mom and I have). Also, I am saying that animals were effected. I don’t believe this to be a “close encounter”, but while we watched the object, a bird came out of the bush and started flying into the night light on our houses exterior repeatedly, very similarly to how a moth would. The bird looked like a raven, but again we are not experts and it was night.

I was working in my tool shed and was coming back in and saw the craft with my wife and my cousin. It then went further down with speed

I was in my shed working on a metal box and went back in for dinner. I was walking back in and in the sky I saw a disk like shape that looked only silver and it just floated in mid air. The spacecraft was low towards the ground not too far up from the trees and field. I had hunting binoculars so I could get a good look at it. I have never been a believer of the extraterrestrial or the paranormal so I just figured it was just some sort of airplane but, I stared at it deeper and realized it wasn’t. Part of the shape towards to top was more visible and I could make out the shape of a figure that didn’t look human like. I open the door inside the house to tell my wife and tell my cousin to come out to get a look at it. After 1-2 minutes after they come out it starts to slowly move and it looked like it was slowly going around in small circles. Then the tip or the ship turns unnaturally nothing like I’ve ever seen before and starts going towards the ground. It starts to pick up speed and an indescribable color of light flashes right before it crashes. It was a bright light. My hounds started barking and trying to run over so I had to get them inside and figure out who to call and what to do. I went online to figure out what to do because I didn’t want people thinking I’m crazy so I found the number for the UFO hotline. The space-craft landed behind my barn and somewhere deep into the cornfield across the river.

This is my second sighting in about 8 days. The first bought me by surprise. I was putting clothes in the dryer when a very bright light got my attention. I turned to look out the window and saw what appeared to be a helicopter shining a light or laser beam down toward the top of the mountain. I grabbed my phone but in my excitement had not turned the video on. When I did the beam had retracted but I did get a 53 second clip that showed the light spinning and shooting across the sky in many directions.

Do I have been watching the sky and last evening about 6:40pm I had my camera ready and captured another dancing ball of lights. The colors were green red white and maybe yellow. It seemed to vibrate and change from a solid to a ball of specs. It shot off in various directions. There appears to be 2 other quick tiny flashes of light, one at top right and bottom left as if it was not alone. I have a couple short clips of that also.

Don’t know if it’s true but I was told there is a secret military base somewhere in these mountains.

I am a minister and retired tech professional.

I’m not sure what else to say. Hope this is of interest to an expert. I certainly like to find out what it is and why it’s out there.

I can’t seem to find my video content on my phone to upload but it’s there. How else can I get it to you. I need to know what it is.

I live in Tyler county, west Virginia, and this was back on January 1st, 2023. My fiance,and I along with a friend ,was driving home on January 1st, 2023, when around 6:30 pm , I first noticed what looked to me as a stars showering down straight to the ground. or what we thought were stars was in fact something the three of us have never witnessed on this earth ever. While driving I confirmed with the other 2 people in the car if they were seeing what I was seeing, they also confirmed it. it looked like a bunch of stars shooting downward to the tree tops. When we got close enough to be able to see what it was, they were not stars . I stopped the vehicle all 3 of us jumped out on the road amazed by what was really happening,trying to grasp the reality of the situation. My fiance had recorded a few videos I knew that we had got some good evidence. After going over them when I made it home we were truly amazed by what was captured on video.

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

Low level silent triangle shaped exhibiting seemingly impossible acceleration

My wife and I let the dogs out to relieve themselves. Usually we let them run around a bit while we stand on the front porch. My wife and the dogs went out just before me. The dogs were in the yard and my wife was just a few feet off the porch on the walkway. I was walking to the edge of the porch when something in the air and almost right above me caught my eye. The weather was clear with excellent visibility and a few scattered clouds. The moon and stars were bright. Both my wife and I were facing to the west. The entire sighting lasted for about 6-7 seconds, maximum.

I saw 3 lights in a triangle shape almost directly above me moving slowly to the west. At first, I thought it was an extremely low and slow commercial plane (I thought possibly in distress) with the anti-collision and landing light on. But anti-collision lights flash and these were not flashing. And the lights were large, circular, and glowing. It was also completely silent, not a sound. My eyes began to adjust to the dark and I could see that it was not an airplane at all. It was a triangular vehicle with 3 circular “lights,” one near the apex of each of the points of the triangle. It had a solid black body. I could see the stars disappear as the vehicle passed between me and the stars. I pointed at it and said to my wife “Look at that!” I could see in my peripheral vision that she looked up where I was pointing. At that exact moment the vehicle shot/streaked away to the west at about the same altitude, accelerating to what must have been multiple thousands of knots, instantaneously! There was no sound, not even that of air vortices that I would expect from a body moving through the air. We were both stunned.
I cannot make a real accurate estimate of the vehicle altitude because it was almost straight above me (until it shot away) and I don’t know how large it was. My estimate is that if it was a small fighter sized craft it would have been about 300-500 feet above ground level. If it was a 747 sized craft, I would estimate it was 1200-1500 feet AGL.

Saw unidentified floating lighted objected

We spotted a brightly lit object in the sky, and initially thought it was a bright star; however it started jumping around and changed locations. It was hovering, rather than flying and making a humming noise similar to a generator. It was a cloudy night, so it would disappear then come back. We saw it again around 8:02 pm (when the video was taken) and it was in a different location still hovering and moving around. I do have a video but it is too large to upload.

Distant sighting, unfortunately I may not have enough useful info to be helpful

Noticed something that I first thought to be a star. I later realized that it had too much of a yellowish hue (reflection of sun?), and also moved in what seemed to be random directions. It would remain stationary for minutes at a time and then dart in different directions. It seemed to be moving too fast and changing directions too quickly to be a satellite. Have been watching it off and on for over an hour. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Hearing voices for the past 8 months to a year and I have come to conclusion it's from Alien activity.

I left morgantown ok Oct 1st to go to Vacaville Ca. My mom lives at ((address eleted)) drive to get away from the voices I was hearing. Upon arrival everything got much worse. Since returning on oct 13th the problem is still occuring. I was experiencing happening on the flight as well. I flew Frontier airlines out of Sacramento CA. I hear sounds that sound like a ship and see small green lights that come together and make hologram scary images. I am not sure if this is a gang stalking technique or I am actually having alien activity. The voices have told me I am being gangstalked by EL. I am also having issues with high EMF waves. I also have a big problem on my left calf and other areas that seem like a flea problem. There are small portholes in my Cieling that they have said they are dropping them on me and then feeding off of me.

Unknown object, like skinny blimp or tube

Object noticed through SE facing window at above the treetops from our house at 4pm. It looked like white tube/cylinder with rounded ends, it shot over top of trees and boomeranged off due east -Broad daylight. When object tuned east it looked circular. Grew hazy almost transparent looking before it was gone. My 17 year old daughter was right there but did not have her glasses on and did not see it. The dogs got very upset and were barking but it was most likely a reaction to my excitement when leaping to the window to get a better look. SO FRUSTRATING there was a person who could corroborate but she didn’t have her glasses on!

several ufo/uap seen in the south western sky from my location by 3 whitnesses. white circle shape flying objects that disappeared.

In Lincoln County, West Virginia at 6:45 pm eastern time I was in my driveway looking at some deer and other animals with an ATN Thor LT 3-6 thermal (detects heat) hunting scope. I saw a plane up in the south to southwest sky (looking towards the west hamlin area from my position) and pointed my thermal scope at it and watched it for a few seconds (very very slow while watching like it should fall out of the sky) then I noticed some objects moving faster and the majority of them performing very smooth oval type patterns and I watched them for about 1-2 minutes until i saw 1 of them flying a very straight pattern for a fair distance until the pattern changed to a side to side zig zag pattern still moving forward (kind of like a digital heart beat) until it went over the tree line. At this point i started looking with my naked eye to make sure i wasn't crazy but I do not have the best eye sight and have some floaters in my vision so I went in the house and got my wife.... she came out and started looking though the thermal scope and also said she saw them and saw several of them (neither of us know exactly how many but i for sure saw 3 in my field of view at 1 time but estimate there could have been possibly 5 or 6 max but not 100% sure on that due to field of view of the scope and the fact that they were spread out and had overlapping patterns). I told her to just look with her eyes without the scope and make sure it wasn't something like birds or mosquitos/bugs or something else easily explainable flying around. She said she was able to see "a white thing flying around"..... at that time I had my 8 year old son come out and look (because he has good eyes) and tell me if he saw anything up there. after a few seconds looking up he said he saw "a white circle moving around" then he said "it just flashed bright and disappeared" then a few seconds later he said he saw a smaller white circle appear out of no where the it disappeared again. we stayed outside watching these things until 7:15 pm. I went back out again at approximately 7:45 pm and saw 1 singular object still moving flying some type of smooth circular/oval type pattern back and forth and around the same area in the sky for a couple of minutes until i finally got tired of holding my gun/scope up watching. i came inside and googled what to do and called this place and the gentlemen that answered (i believe his name was mr. davenport) asked me to type up what happened and submit it.

Smoking a cigarette and walking the dog in the yard late in the evening when I looked up and saw the object. Shot a video on an iPhone.

The object flew low (close to 1000 feet roughly) overhead and made very little noise, not like an airliner or an helicopter, minor sounds of wind moving past the object, sounded like a light breeze. After video ends, the object disappears in a matter of seconds despite the perceived slower speed of the object. Greenish and reddish hued lights could be seen occasionally coming from the sides of the craft, not bright like an aircraft, much "fuzzier". Appears to change shape from round to elliptical. Checked an online flight tracker, there should not have been any flights in the area at the time.

Seen at day and night 5 bball sized orange spheres that spyed on us without lights on. Metallic softball sized spheres, large entity

This has ben going on for a yr and a half and we have realized with 100 that we Ben being visited since we moved here in 14.. we have had 100s of sightings. Very close range, coming ground level many occasions. We watched these spheres of light chase and intimidate planes and one even charged me on my deck but this sphere also seemed to charge the entity and craft he was with with a blinding bright white light sitting watching us from treeline. It then would turn on bright blue red green white lights and seemed to be spinning rapidly. The 5 orange spheres showed intelligence and respond to voice..we have video and photos. Neighbors seen them here 2 sets actually and I've connected with many other ppl in the immediate area whose also seen these same ones and same being. Transparent looks half human in face half something else. The largest ufo was vehicle sized and shot out a red dot of light in a arch shape. The 5 orange spheres also formed an arch over top of our home. Planes were seeing landing on a ridge very close to these ufos. ! I believe the military showed up bc the spheres chasing planes and sat rite in their path and didn't move until plane was abt to collide with it. At one point 5 or 6 planes were surrounding this ufo. These ufos would come down rite over treeline. The spheres spent a whole night in our back yard and used telepathy.. they seemed to be adamant abt showing us dominance. The sphere I feel is the entity weapon. It was so surreal but 10000 real. I tryed taking first pics and it was so large and bright but would not show up on screen so I used my sons and hubby's iPhone and that worked. They're now following me in my car when I'm alone and I'm tired of feeling not in control abt my life and safety and it has came inside and was fully invisible. Has fully paralyzed me and hurt me in my lower left belly. Ive blacked iut ir lost consciousness at the closest encounters. Ive woke with very idd marks and 6 holes in a line and still bloody whenni found them and got photo of those as well ...I had end of the world type dreams. ..these smaller crafts would fly rite past us while we stood on porch watching them. They'd fly down into woods to show their capabilities. I got good vibes from my first day time sighting but when I tryed taking the first photos my cam flash went off. I feel I made the entity feel threatened and that's when the sphere came zipping across yard to the entity and then came charging me like a mad bull. The only thought went thru my mind was I could kill you and Noone would ever know what really happened. It swooped above my roof and hung there motijless awhile. These orange spheres will creep suoer slow or stsy motionless for hrs at a time. Or move suoer fast. I haven't felt safe in my home since then. There's not support for ppl like me and my family. I have 4 kids who are all very scared to have everything they believed get turned upside down and it was the biggest most traumatic event in my entire life. Recently as in a week ago I got chased again by a large orange sphere. Close range.. and i feel this rime it was drawing me down abside road in dark so it could tske me bc it descended in a field beside me and went downnto treetops and it stopped when i stopped and it let me record it and I've had other times in past where I've seen them charge another plane. I had a light in my hand so I shined it on the orange sphere and it was going abt 3 to 4 times speed of plane and I shined light as soon as light hit the object it stopped immediately. These things have put out beams under them and they also have laser beams they shoot out the sides and bottom of them. I began my own search for the truth even though I was pretty sure they were ufos and being of light or energy. ..I will file other reports as well and I did file one Nov of last yr as well. Since seeing usp at home I Bevan seeing them everywhere I went. Even being chased along side of my vehicle. This is insane to find other reports backing mine up from same month and yr and same area and all mentioned planes same ufos and the same entity as we have had here. If anyone wants to contact me for further details that's fine. One night the entire ground everywhere around our home was glowing blue from the ground up and no uap were visible at that time. Electronics went crazy while they were here. They came up to windows etc. I look back and I signaled these uap with out realizing what they were. But they were already slowly descending each night anyways. Possibly bc I didn't know what they could be for the first few wks until activity began to increase and I began to dig online for answers. We've seen what looks like very dim white spots of light throughout our yard seeming like they're trying to open up. These are not the same as the spheres of light and crafts. But were here same time as the rest of the sightings. I've found sev others in our area who seen the same usp as well. I would agree these uap are a clear threat gettin too close and intimidating any ppl or planes anywhere near them. I've Ben patiently wating to see a report here from the 2 pilots ove witnessed be chased or charged head on by these spheres of light but nothing I've seen on dsts Bank so far. Ty for your time and I hope to hear back

Driving n see a orange ball flying 5 times fast as plane beside me in a field as if racing or chasing me, I pulled over and stopped.

After pulling over it stopped and hovered immediately the moment I stopped my vehicle and then it dimmed half way down and I could see it appearing to change shape and throw light from ots rear end. It had a aura around it at times and when the glow went out you can see the solid metal surface of craft. These bright lights are to disguise the craft. I've Ben seeing these almost 2 yrs now and have had so many sightings in my area its quite surreal. Very close encounters over 50 or 60 times I have video but this one is the best footage to date I have photos as well of this and precious sightings

Orange sphere in the sky

My boyfriend and I were riding our motorcycles back to the house shortly after dark we were coming down the hill about to make a left at the light and I saw an orange sphere go through the sky. And when I say through I don’t mean it was arched like it was outside our atmosphere but rather was flying in our atmosphere very close to land. There was no orange flame behind it it was a solid orange sphere nothing else came from it and it moves very quickly towards the horizon

UFO bounces and zips infront of house for over 2 hours

Starting off as a regular night around 10:30pm on the phone with my mother. I notice a red/white firery star outside my window. When I first noticed it seemed like it was sitting still but had a crazy glowing field around it. It seemed like it was illuminating a small portion of the sky around it. As I notice this I focus on it, wondering what star or planet it was. This is when it started shooting off and appearing in different spots almost at the same exact moment. It started bobbing up and down and left and right rapidly almost as if it was aware I was watching it. As I’m still on the phone I start to move my head so my field of vision does not show the object as if I was testing it to see if it would come into my field of vision and it continued to move straight into my field of view everytime I moved my head. This is what confirmed it being some type of craft. This is when I told my mother I was watching a ufo. I then switch from phone call to FaceTime to show her the bobbing firery craft. At this point after 5 mins of watching it go back and forth, left and right, my mother was then convinced as well. It didn’t take long for me to call in everyone at the house to look at it in my bedroom. When I did this I got this immediate thought in my head that the craft didn’t want everyone’s attention since a couple of the people who came to look did not believe in such phenomena. As I got this thought I watched it go from flashing/blinking to a steady white/red fire color and instead of dancing around it stayed put and increasingly got less bright. At this point I was convinced the craft was in contact with me and was telling me that it did not approve of the other witnesses being present. So at that point I kicked everyone out of the room and as soon as I closed my door, the craft goes back to blinking rapidly and bouncing back and forth. After it did this I had a feeling that I was losing this connection I was having with it. I got an immediate feeling that I needed to head upstairs and onto our balcony to see it better. As I walk out onto the balcony the dimming craft then again begins to increase its brightness and dance once again. As I would watch the craft go back and forth I would get this intense deep sensation throughout my entire body that made me feel like I was connected with it even though it seemed like it was miles and miles away. It was almost like I was completely locked on it having zero thoughts other than feeling a sense of peace and comfort. As I stared at the dancing object for almost 30 minutes I fell into a trance like state where I could only feel a deep sense of relaxation. So much to the point I had this feeling that whoever was controlling the craft was comforting me as I watched. It literally felt at a certain point in the trance that I was being physically held, almost like someone was hugging me from behind. After blinking a couple times and fixing my focus the trance like feeling stopped and I had an immediate feeling that told me to wait until it disappears since this experience could be once in a lifetime. As soon as that thought ended the craft did a final beautiful performance of shooting all the way across the sky left and right and instantly vanished. The movements before it vanished was the most impressive thing I have ever seen in my life. Traveling instantly and more farther than it did the whole night it was a true finale performance that has changed my life forever.

Saw an orb that interacted with me.

Was standing in my front doorway (it was raining and I didn't want to get wet) on the phone smoking a cigarette when I noticed a red ball of light, stationary above a tree across the street from me. I said "What is that?" It was like it was waiting for me to notice it, because as soon as I acknowledged it, it started moving! It slowly moved left and then quickly glided and came to a sudden stop, then it slowly started moving to the right and quickly glided and once again it came to a sudden stop. At this point I had just finished yelling in the phone "It's a ufo! I'm hanging up on you It's a ufo!" and started recording, my 15 yr old daughter heard me seeing as she was inside the house but only a few feet from the door, and she came out and we both witnessed the orb turn green, and slowly descend in front of some trees and dissappear. I was saying "Come back! Come back! Come back!" To which it actually reappeared as a red orb, floated above the tress again, sat there long enough for me to yell "Hi!" while waving, and then literally dissappear after it descended for the final time.

Moving star. Not a satellite. Saw it in the sky southwest of my location, but it moved to dead center of the sky where I was at.

It looked like a moving star because it was so far away. It didn’t blink like a satellite and was way too high up to be a plane, and, I know what plane lights look like because I see them flying to the local airport sometimes. It wasn’t that. I saw it in the sky southwest of my location, but it moved to dead center of the sky where I was at, so a pretty significant distance. I also noticed it sometimes it would fly around to reposition itself, as well as sometimes moving significantly up and significantly down. It was still there when I went inside. This is the second sighting I’ve had in this county in 3 years, but the ships looked different. The other was golden with a subcraft that detached to, from how it looked, study the moon before rejoinging and flying away.

I was getting something out of the back of my vehicle around midnight, on may 29th a very clear night no cloud coverage. When I just happened to look up ,and this pulsating white orb comes out of the ground,making no noise at all I couldn't tell if I was actually seeing this or was my mind playing tricks on me. So I ran inside got 2 other people who also confirmed they was seeing the exact same thing that what I was seeing was real .I recorded 4 minutes of the orb just floating around not making any noise at all. I got very anxious overwhelmed,and nauseous and began vomiting,having my fiance take the phone because I was no longer able to record the orb due to vomiting. After 4 minutes or so the white orb turned bright orange and was gone. That's all you saw was a the white orb turned bright orange and was gone in the blink of an eye at a very high rate of speed.

Triangular light formation seen hovering above water tower on my drove home

As I was driving home the evening of April 18, 2022 I noticed a triangular formation of lights hovering above a water tower (circled in red within attached photo) nearly straight ahead (purple X in attached photo is where I first noticed the craft). These three lights were orange, the color being similar to the fruit of the same name. These lights slightly illuminated the top of the water tower's tank.

The body of the craft was hardly visible, and remained in place, completely still for nearly 5 minutes time. After, the lights faded away with no audible sound and was nowhere to be seen.

I am familiar with common and most military aircraft. Formerly in the US Army

2 craft meet on ridge and disappear

I was i was traveling home from an evening out I saw a huge cigar shaped craft emitting a sort of rainbow colored light arrangement. the craft hoovered aprox: 30ft off the ground. as i approached in my vehicle it seemed to notice my presence and shined a bright blueish green light directly at me. It didnt seem threatened by my presence however it was aware of me being there. after a few moments maybe 3-5 minutes the craft shot up to a few hundred feet and took off in a northeasterly direction. no sound was emitted as it propelled its self forward. a low audible buzz or humming sound was present while it was hoovering in front of me. As i looked back down a second craft seemed to appear out of nowhere. It slow crept up the hill to the same spot the previous craft had been spotted. It didn’t seem to notice me however my fiancé and vehicle appeared to capture its interest. Being as she is pregnant with our second child I was very concerned. The craft shown a blueish green light in what seemed to be a sort of quadrant scanning sequence carefully examining the vehicle and its occupant. Afraid to make any harsh movements I stood still and avoid any movement. After aprox: 10 minutes the craft shot up in similar fashion to the first and and disappeared in the same direction as the first craft. The rate of speed the craft leapt forward with was unimaginable. They were gone so quickly that the speeds weren't possible to estimate. Once the craft were gone we began out travel back to our home and realized that at least 2 hours had passed between leaving our previous destination and our home. Once home we quickly showered due to a worry of possible contamination and my fiancé being pregnant. I havent felt right since the incident.

NUFORC Note:

MADAR:

There were no code blues (full alerts) listed in the MADAR Alert Search, but extremely interesting spikes were found in the status rate one-minute field data on node 192 at Weirton. Clarksburg is 82 miles SSE of the Weirton site. In Universal Time Code 1:57 am is 05:57:00. The reported time of the spikes are 05:56:18 UTC (7.5 milligaus) and 5:57:18 UTC (6.75 milligaus). There is definitely a two minute spike period in the magnetometer's field readings. There was also Multi-Sensor Verification in that the compass heading change varied from 156.28 degrees to 160.62 over those same two minutes. The tracer dot placed on the MADAR map also showed a Cambridge, Ohio MADAR site to 85 miles to the NW of Clarksburg, but node 137 was NOL (not online) at the time.

Conclusions: This, by itself, is a major close encounter case that, with two hours missing time, appears to be an abduction. Reluctance of the witnesses to an official investigation for something of this nature is not surprising, but it must be stated in their defense, they DID file a report, with witnesses names, with NUFORC on April 12th, two days after the incident. At the time they DID check the box for investigation. What they DON'T know is that a MADAR site less than 80 miles to the north was spewing very interesting numbers. About 8 minutes before the sighting there was a spike on the magnetometer of 10.5 milligaus. The impression one gets (based on Operation Foal Eagle) is that the MADAR site picked up the craft entering West Virginia airspce, probably somewhere in-between Clarksburg and Weirton, then the craft idled down and projected a blue-green disabling beam during a stalking phase prior to abduction.

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Only the edges of the craft were visible the center/body of the craft seemed to project a live image of the sky above it, it was silent

127 am...the movement of contrails caught my eye, it was a very clear night. All that was visible was a perfect triangle outline like an 8 ball rack floating across the sky, the inner part appeared to be the sky above it, but there was something just slightly off enough that I could follow it. It seemed as though it's initial visibility was a result of it slowing down. The majority of it's movement appeared fluid, then it seemed to skip forward at varying speeds and distances....it was as though at times it disappeared and reappeared directly in front of itself. The altitude and therefore size of the craft is very difficult to determine, not sure if the contrails that created the visible outline really were actual contrails or just appeared to be because that's my familiar reference point for what I saw, and I couldn't compute that a craft that large from my perspective could be anywhere near high enough to create contrails, but that is what they looked like...they dissipated almost instantly .5 to 1.5 second median range of duration. The craft was ABSOLUTELY silent as well so i couldn't get any help pinging it with my ears either. After further review, I believe the craft was 1500 feet up, give or take, and it was larger than a C5 or C17 which routinely fly over at similar or lower altitude. It approached from SE headed NW. The speed of the craft was either way too slow for anything that big or way too fast for anything that big take your pick, it was doing 150 knots give or take when i first spotted it as it slowed down to maybe 20 knots. When it finally accelerated out of my view its acceleration rate made it invisible instantaneously.

My wife & I saw 3 orange/yellow objects that looked like fire pop up from horizon, move across the sky and disappear into the clouds

Monday, 2/21/22 at 7:00pm.
My wife & I were outside on the patio enjoying warm temps & had a fire in the fireplace.
The wife noticed a orange/yellow flickering round object pop up from the south west horizon.
Immediately there was a second one. While watching these two, maybe 30 seconds, I noticed a 3rd one.
They were in the same trajectory, an angled line. Made no noise, dead quiet silent. Sparse clouds,
but able to see many starts & planes, not alot of ambient light behind our home. We watched all
three disappear into a cloud bank, approximately the same spot, all following the identical trajectory.
We spend hours on our patio in the summer time, late into the night by the fire place. We make a habit to unplug when were out there and typically do not take cell phones-so no pictures.
We see stars, planets, satellites, aircraft at various altitudes, but never seen anything like this before.

Shape: Rectangle


Green square in sky moving at high speed.

Driving along I-64 N, 9:15pm. Some sort of strange light catches the corner of my eye. I turn my head to see a green square moving very fast through the sky in what is either a manner that is directly down or away from me. The object is seen for what felt like a fraction of a second but not quiet as fast as a shooting star. Shape of the phenomenon is square and color is lighter than an emerald green. No smoke/chem trail. No sound. Just the object in the sky. Object did not emit light at very high lumens. The object disappeared quickly, either down into the city below the skyline or behind the city over a mountain, tracking the object with the human eye was difficult.

I took three photos of the sunset on the evening of Christmas Eve. When viewing the pictures I clearly spotted a circle of lights in one picture. The second picture the circle of lights were now one large light streak going up. In the third picture, you can see two light streaks and three circular lights in the clouds.

Large object moving extremely slow.No sound.Red/yellow/white lights alternating in a pattern. Triangular/ovoid. Zero explanation

My husband and I saw this happening. No understanding of what or how.
Large! Alternating colors of lights. Had a “mass” to it. We do live in an area that the air force does training. However, zero sound and lower than a commercial flight and would basically hover at times. Unable to record to provide proof unfortunately! We were both to perplexed to even grab a phone at the time… we don’t know what we saw or how to logically explain at this time…
