UAP seen as SpaceX Dragon stage one returns to earth today, 5/30/20. Today, while watching the recorded launch of the SpaceX Dragon rocket, my wife and I noticed an anomaly that deserves explanation. As the first stage of the rocket returned to earth, at approximately 6:02 (six minutes, two seconds) into the flight, an object traveling at very high speed streaks from center of the picture, and far below the rocket, slightly upward and to the right .

approximately the 2 o'clock position, if you will. Obviously, the camera providing the picture of the return is mounted on the side of the stage one rocket. In the view seen on TV, there are two directional guidance paddles (I have no idea the official name for them) that can be seen further down on the side of the rocket.

The object we noticed can be seen slightly to the left of the paddle on the right as it streaks away further to the right. To me, it appears to be far below the rocket, perhaps closer to cloud level. Certainly the area in the ocean designated for the return lan! ding site is a well-known "no flight" area for aircraft.

The speed that the object is traveling appears to far exceed that of normal aircraft.

Orange, green fiery ball impacts outside of Cape Canaveral / Kennedy Space Center Anyone see the green/orange fiery ball fall from the sky last night? Meteorite? It was between 1:30am and 2:30am some time. This was really quick, but very odd. Living next to the space center, we are fortunate enough to see the rockets go up, and some times come down - these days on purpose, mostly.

I've seen a landing of the reusable rockets from SpaceX right here in our backyard, and this thing was almost as big and bright - a bright, fiery ball of green/orange light came down much faster (if you've seen the rockets land, they come down fast) - but it didn't slow at the end like the rocket. It was like it came down as an impact, but once it "impacted" beyond the line of sight, there was no sound. As a matter of fact, there was no sound at all.

I was expecting some kind of impact. It lasted a whole two seconds, maybe, and that was that. Anyone else see this, know anything about it, or maybe what it might have been? Meteorite?.

Hovering silent craft red and green lights flashing. 20 minutes in one spot weird lightning appeared Red and green flashing lights on craft. craft hovered_ stood still in the sky.

no sounds heard. lower than an airplane designated flight path. hovered lower, than rose a bit.

multiple lightning flashes that converged into one line appeared to its north side_very unusual pattern. no thunder followed lightning_this may have noting to do with craft. craft than slowly rose than disappeared from sight (unable to discern if it disappeared or moved father off/out of view) this was witnessed by several people over the course of a half hour or a bit less) craft simply sat in the sky.

the word "drone" was used in conversation but it was larger than any conventional "drone". again, this was totally silent. no engine, propeller, turbine was heard at any time.

On July 4, 2014, approximately 9:30 p.m. ET, near Cape Canaveral, Florida, we witness 6 UFO sightings of orange orbs .

On July 4, 2014, approximately 9:30 p.m. ET, near Cape Canaveral, Florida, we witness 6 UFO sightings.

Sequentially, this is what we saw. As we returned home after watching fireworks near Sidney Fisher Park, I pulled into the ((deleted)) condominium complex and noticed an orange light hovering above the beach just east of the condo complex. As I exited the car, I walked around the condo complex to try and get a better view, but by the time I got there, the orange light had disappeared.

I proceeded upstairs to the fifth floor condo, and proceeded to the balcony and witnessed another orange light hovering what seemed like no more than a mile off the beach, maybe 2,500 feet in the air, and directly east of the condo. While that light hovered in place without a sound, I called to the rest of my family including my wife and my father-in-law, an ex-rocket engineer with Lockheed Martin space systems. As they joined me on the balcony, we witnessed another orange glow travel from the north down the beach, pause for a moment near the condo at about 1,500 feet above sea level, and then proceed to travel east out over open water.

All of us were left speechless, trying to explain the sighting and the fact that there wasn’t a single sound. During this time, the original orange glow that was hovering, literally just disappeared in place. It wasn’t like it was hidden behind a cloud; it was literally like the light turned off and the object was just gone.

My mother-in-law ran back into the condo to retrieve binoculars as I started to try and take pictures with my iPhone. The pictures are added here. Over the next 5 minutes, we witness two orange glows side-by-side almost in formation follow the same path down the beach from the north as if they launched near the Kennedy Space Center and paused at about the same altitude as the prior aircraft, roughly 1,500 feet above sea level.

One of the two proceeded to rise vertically in place to about 2,500 feet, close to the same altitude the first aircraft was at, but slightly more north in the sky. As I tried to find it in the binoculars, the second of the two aircraft had again just disappeared in place, like the light was just turned out. Returning to the original aircraft, it too had disappeared.

As the prior aircraft were hovering in place and rising to the roughly 2,500 feet above sea level; a final aircraft followed the same flight path as the prior three. As that aircraft neared the same area of the prior two, it paused, rotated and turned out towards sea. This one, I could find in the binoculars what appeared to be two circular exhaust engines side by side.

The aircraft proceeded slowly out east for what seemed like 3-5 miles before it too disappeared out of site. Stunned, we all turned to each other in amazement at what we saw. Were they test helicopters? Where they drones – never heard a completely silent drone? Given the clear distinct side-by-side orientation of the engines for the final aircraft, it was confirmation that it was a powered aircraft vehicle.

But even at that, we couldn’t explain the orange glow as it approached us. Why would we see the glow of engines? How did they hover with no underneath engines for flight stabilization? A thousand questions; all leaving us with the conclusion that we just witnessed a unique UFO sighting. ((deleted)) Condominiums, Ridgewood Ave.

Astronomer spots Triangle with white inlaid lights passing silently at low altitude In a a very dark area where there is little to no light pollution. A triangle shape passed flat overhead a few degrees to the east. It was heading in a northwest direction, then swiftly made a change to the northeast without banking.

The craft was totally silent, it moved as if it were a glider. Unlike most aircraft you see, its movement was distinct in that its movement seemed so effortless - (there was no loss of speed during its turn, no change in altitude, no roll, banking or any of the other traditional characteristics of powered flight.) Underneath it had several dull, faint glowing white lights that appeared to be inlaid on the bottom and illuminated the outline of the underbelly.

I compared what I saw afterwards to several online videos of F117's and B2's in night flight. It did not resemble either.

Silver Cylinder over Cape Canaveral, Fl DATE: 18 Feb 14 LOCATION: Cape Canaveral, Fl TIME: 1050 hrs. WEATHER CONDITIONS: Clear and sunny. 70’s.

At approximately 1050 hrs on 18 Feb 14, a friend and I were walking north at the intersection of Poinsettia Avenue and Jackson Avenue in Cape Canaveral, Fl. I look northward in the sky and observed a cylindrical shaped object expelling smoke from its aft end. The object then did a loop while trailing smoke and I could hear a low rumble similar to that made by rockets ascending from Canaveral Air Station.

At first, I thought it might have been a malfunctioning rocket, but this incident was occurring to far west of the beach where the rockets are usually launched. Another indicator that this was not a rocket was that there were 2 high altitude commercial jets flying north to south with one being directly above the object. The airspace is cleared of all traffic before rocket launches.

After coming out of the loop, the object ceased emitting smoke and travelled west at a high rate of speed before either disappearing or turning due north. When the object was travelling westerly, it looked like a silver cylinder tapered at both ends. I could also see what appeared to be dark “portholes” on the side.

I could not see wings or tail fins. At approximately 1100 hrs, I heard the low rumble again and found another dissipating white smoke loop to the northwest, but could not see the object this time.

Two glowing red spheres seen at low altitude Near finishing a work shift at a resort near Port Canaveral I had.taken some trash out to the dumpster area. As I approached the rear of the main building on my way back from the dumpster I happened to glance up over the top of the building and I saw at an altitude of approx.

two hundred feet two glowing red spheres, a bit darker shade of red where the main mass was in the center of these spheres, the sphere to my left appeared to be a little further back but at approx. the same alt. as the one on my right I stood and watched them for several mins.

trying to determine what these objects were. I thought they might be marine style flares but there was no visible residue falling nor any smoke. There was no visible movement in alt.

or in x-y axis. There was no audible noise from these spheres and the nearby roadway was also quiet. After observing for several minutes and getting a little nervous and fearful, plus it was time to clock off work, I returned to the inside of the main building hoping to find somebody nearby to tell but at that hour there was no one around.

When I left the building to go home several minutes later the spheres were gone and nowhere in sight and did not see these objects on my drive home.

Large reddish orange fireball very visible in Cape Canaveral sky around 9pm on 10-27-10 On the night of 10-26-10 I saw a shooting star, made a wish and thought nothing more of it. Then on the night of 10-27-10 I was standing outside on the phone with my boyfriend and I looked up and saw this large red object that resembled a fireball. At first sight I thought it was an airplane but the whole object appeared to be red or reddish orange.

I have tried looking on the internet to see if maybe there was a weather balloon or something in the air that late at night. I am 39 years old and have never seen anything like this before. Then I thought maybe it was a comet or meteor, not quite sure what to make of it.

I kept telling my boyfriend I couldn't believe what I was seeing and was very shaken by it. I just want to know if there was anyone else that seen the same thing I saw. I have no clue what a weather balloon would even look like and have never seen a comet that big! Could someone give me any information on this please? Thank you.

During the launch of a Delta 2, an object was seen and photographed along the flight path. The object did not move and was not a star as we were an hour after sunrise and we were looking NNE past the rising sun. This obect has been seen in past Delta 2 flights as noted in the past.

It is possible that this is a pre-launch weather balloon. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

Bright object, incredibly fast, witnessed over Kennedy Space Center in Florida. I was fishing on the bank of the Indian River, within 5 miles of Kennedy Space Center and 15 miles of Patrick Air Force. I could see the opposite horizon perfectly clearly, no buildings obstruction the view.

I witnessed a bright light come into view over the west horizon and travel directly over my head, and out over the ocean, past the horizon in approx. 8-9 seconds. The object as completely silent and approx.

twice the size of a star. I have seen thousands of Jets and planes fly in the same sky, and have roughly calculated their time, they take 4-5 minutes to travel the same distance I saw this object travel. I have also seen 100's of "shooting stars" they usually show up for a second or two and dissipear wihtout traveling much distance at all.

This "light" was constant and didnt "blink" or "shimmer" at all. I have been fishing the exact same area for 25+ years and have never seen anything like this in my life. I'm not saying it was an alien space ship, just something that I cannot explain.

To travel a distance, in 8 seconds, that normally takes a Jet airplane 4-5 minutes, is unexplainable to me. I have witnessed every single space shuttle and rocket go up in the past 25+ years, and the object I witnessed dwarfed these in speed very easily. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate.

Triangular steel grey craft hovering at top of vehicle bridge in broad daylight. Driving up 528 bridge headed towards Merritt Island, and saw triangular shaped craft hovering about 6-10 feet above the top of the bridge. Pulled over to observe craft for a little less than 5 minutes.

1. Gun metal grey, smooth no surface features 2. Completely silent 3.

Headed South when it took off to outer space (like a bullet out of a rifle both south and to outer space) 4. No engines, propellers, no windows. 5.

Was hovering and had very slight rocking 6. No flashing lights as a regular aircraft 7. 60-65 feet long, 40 feet long, 15 feet thick 8.

When it took off the whole bottom of the craft glowed bright like welders torch bright -This was gathered from a recent discussion about a craft seen about 20 years ago. I am not the witness, I spoke to the witness and was given this information after writing it down. I have small than illustration can upload later.

-The peculiar aspect to the craft was how it made the witness feel, she could not decide to either get out and try and touch the craft or drive off with her small girls in the car. -It most definitely was not Venus, a weather balloon, an experimental aircraft, reflections of any type of swamp gas, etc. It was a real, physical, metallic object that behaved unlike any craft the witness had ever observed.

-Witness was a military brat, and father was in Army. -When the craft took off to the South, it pushed/pulled the water below the craft, signalling it had not only interacted with our atmosphere, but the water in the river. So in short, the craft was hovering ten feet above the top of the bridge, and 50 feet which is the height of the bridge.

So a 60 foot distance interaction took place between the craft and the surface of the water when it took off. -The year/date are not exact, the time of day is 3-4 P.M.

/15:00-16:00. -Witness contacted NASA, and Patrick Air Force Base, both told her no craft were in the vicinity. -Witness contacted multiple news stations, but those stations ignored her, claiming that no sightings were reported by anybody else, so it was grounds for them to ignore it.

(I feel it is my responsibility to share this information because I can type fast, am college educated and do believe the U.S. Government is lying about almost everything ET related).

Glowing green light came up right side of moving ship, stayed even then made sharp right turn 90 degrees, took off. On Carnival cruise ship returning to Cape Canaveral from Nassau, Bahamas. Went on top deck after dinner.

Was on right side of ship heading north. Heard buzzing noise like a boat motor/motorcycle. Looked to right and saw a glowing green object keeping same pace as boat houvering over the water (maybe 10 feet above it).

After looking at the glowing object it turned to the right and took off at 90 degree angle. Was not a boat, was not a plane. Husband and I looked at each other, a little startled.

We looked at the people all over the deck, some looking forward, some looking left (approximately 4 couples total). No one seemed to have noticed it. We proceeded to the captains area and asked the crew that we saw if they saw anything on the right side of the ship.

They did not speak english well enough to hold a conversation with us and we walked away. Kept to ourselves until someone else mentioned seeing a UFO and it sounded just like our experience so we are submitting this. ((NUFORC Note: Source of report indicates that date of the event is approximate.

ufo seen by the US Coast Guard Cutter Laurel I was standing watch on the United States Coast Guard Cutter Laurel. Our Ship was about 150 miles off the coast of Cape Canaveral. (The date and time of this event is off because it has been a while.

) bearing at 270 degrees on the horizon was a bright and shiny object that flew to our ship and stopped above. It took about 1 mabye 2 seconds to get from the horizon to our ship. It stopped above our ship.

I was on the top of our ship , above the bridge, which is where we stood for lookout. It was bright but it did not hurt my eyes. the water around our ship looked like water would look at night if someone spotlighted it.

what i found strange was i could look at the light without any glare. During this event, the bridge was communicating with me. Everyone thought at first it was a flare.

The Captain was a sleep, because it was mistaken for a flare the Captain was awaken , which is protocol for a "MayDay call". I relayed what i was looking at back to the bridge. The object was so large i thought it was only 40 feet above us.

Seconds later i found out from the bridge the object is 1 mile above us and 3 miles in circumfrence. _-Very Large - After that their was communiction over the radio that the same thing had happened to other vessels in the area. Another strange thing was that in parts of our ship where their was no light or windows for light , lit up during this event.

minutes later i am explaining myself to the Captain what I saw. I was not ridiculed at all. To many people on our crew of 55 seen it.

The next morning our Captain took the crew on deck and told us that he was ordered by an Admiral in the Navy to tell us "That we are not to talk about what we saw ever again off or on the ship" and if we did we would have to answer to him. ((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate. PD)).

Glowing orb/circle with ability to hover and move at speeds above those visible by eye. Me and my Father were at Space camp. (I know but please keep reading).

My father is and was at the time a very successful Civil engineer. I myself am now a civil engineer as well. My dad had rented a convertible and we went out after curfew.

(everyone else was getting ready for bed and when we arrived back were all asleep). We were driving down the highway. We did not spot any other cars or any that we can remember.

I would have been 8-10 years old at this point and my father would have been in his mid to late 30's. I could find out our exact age and general date of this sighting by looking at some pictures we took at the camp. (I do not have them handy as they are at my parents house.

) We noticed and object that looked spherical or circular in shape. It emitted a very bright light which made it impossible to see the exact shape. It was white/blue and the light seemed to shine off in every direction around it.

(Similar to staring at a star). It was however very large. Similar to if you could pulled a star in very close to you.

It hovered perfectly still over the highway to the point we thought maybe it was just a light. When we about reached the point to be directly under the object it suddenly shot further out straight it front of us. The speed almost looked like teleportation but we could tell it moved and it had a light trail where it had moved.

If not for the light trail we probably would have thought it teleported. It the proceeded to shoot far out to the left side of the sky, then to the right, all awhile keeping up that teleporting like speed. It shot back to the center of the highway and allowed us to almost come right underneath it again before rep! eating that sequence.

It did this several times. I do not remember when this whole thing ended. I think it just shot off and was gone but my Father would have to confirm this with me.

We still talk about it to this day but I can't recall either of us talking about how this ended. I honestly don't remember the end of this encounter but will try to find out if needed. Thanks P.

S. the object did not make a sound. no humming or engine type sounds.

When the object allowed us to come towards it on the highway it was almost directly over top of us several times. I also called my father before submitting this report and he confirmed that the object just evetually flew away and was gone from sight.

the object would stop move at fast speed in straight line stop again and travelled at right angles early 1990s during a night shuttle shot i and two other persons witnessed a circle of light (like a dot) above where shuttle was to ascend. the bright lite moved in straight lines moving extremely fast. it would come to sudden stops then move quickly up down and across in straight lines it desappeared after approximate 5 minutes of movement ((NUFORC Note: Date is unknown.

We have invited the witness to look at a list of night launches for the Shuttle, and attempt to pin down the date more accurately. PD)).

Large undenible object. 100 feet off the ground. I was right underneth it.

The size and shape of a football field. It was about 10pm. I was camping of sorts on my balcony do to relitives visiting.

While I was looking at the moon I saw a very large object. I just saw the bottom at first as it passed over the apartment building I was living in. I didn't know what I was looking at.

The first thing I thought as I started to see more and more of the bottom of the craft, is that it was a blimp (having never seen a blimp). I noticed no sound because I could still hear crickets and palmento bugs cherping. The wasn't but maybe 100 feet off the top of the building.

Once I saw the entire bottom of the craft it was huge. A massive rectangle in shape, I would say the size of a football field. That is 50 yards in width and 100 yards in length.

It was close enough to see that the craft was made of what appeared to be metal. It had semetrical design that's to say I could see long flat "beams" (like I beams used in construction) they kind of criscrossed over the objects' undersurface meeting in a triangel pattern. In each triangle had it's own semitery a circular indentation and a receded light that was not very visible a sort of green in color.

As it passed completely overhead and I could see the end of the object I was looking for the balloon part of the blimp and it wasn't there, it wasn't until that moment that I realized it wasn't a blimp. The object was thin at Max. 4 feet in depth.

That was when I ran inside screaming there is a UFO outside! I was met with "ya right". By the time I got someone to come outside with me it had moved off so all me and my cousen could see the rear edge of the craft. She said "where is the UFO" I said "it's right there" (pointing at the object as it was moving away) And she said "no it's not" I replied "Do you see something right there?" she says "ya" I replied "That is a UFO" ((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate.

PD)).

Two bright objects in the night sky in Cape Canaveral, FL. It was a warm summer night in Cape Canaveral, FL. No moon as I recall, the sky was very black and the stars shone brightly.

My fiancé at the time (now husband of 22 years) and I were stargazing on the beach off of Lincoln St. on the boardwalk. To the left of us was Kennedy Space Center, to the right of us The Pier.

I would also like to note that there were no launches that night. Since I grew up in Cape Canaveral this I would have remembered along with seeing these objects. Suddenly out of no where there appeared a very bright light that seemed to change in colors.

The object hovered above the ocean just to the right of the Space Center. It would move in and outward, then it would appear to rise in the sky and drop suddenly and stop. It moved in directions that I have never witnessed before! It made no sound that we could hear, only the oceans waves were heard.

A second object then appeared and both of these moved around almost as if following each other, then at other times they would be doing different things. One would be moving towards the beach and one would be rising up or down above the ocean. We both have never seen any aircraft move so effortlessly in a manner that these objects did.

My husband and I both asked each other if we were both witnessing the same thing, wondering if we had lost our minds! We watched the objects for probably a good 15 minutes doing it’s dance in the sky. Suddenly the first one or lead object seemed to move in quickly at us (but still kept a distance away), like it knew we were watching it, then backed off to where it was then in a flash both of them were gone leaving what seemed to be a streak in the dark sky where they had moved so quickly out of our site. Not a trail, but a streak that vanished in a second! Over the years we have told many of our friends of our experience, but never thought to report the incident until I ran across your site.

I have looked to see if others perhaps saw these objects that night, but did not find any. Since I can not remember the exact date I will have to estimate it. I know that this happened in 84, it was in the summer months and it was before we married in 1985.

Sorry I wish I would have wrote now the date and kept it somewhere. ((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)).

check your home movies of apollo 11 filming apollo 11 launch from the beach at garfield st,as with other launches.with hand held 8mm camera w/o telephoto lens.filmed till lv was out or sight,centering on the apollo craft.

when film was developed it clearly reveals an object coming out or the ne and approaching apollo 11,hovering for a look,and then speeding away at aspeed which makes apollo 11 appear to be stationary.i was unable to get any info,other than some who wanted me to give up custody of the film.i was employed at nasa hq bldgas an in-house contractor at the time and knew that all their filming is with telephoto at longer range.

iwas filming skyward approx 15 miles away.this object appears in the same frames as a known object at aknown height and speed .others filming in that vicinity should have recorded the same object,but i didnt know it was there until the film was developed.

((NUFORC Note: We have requested copies of the film. We are uncertain of the date of launch, but we presume it occurred approximately 5 days before the first landing on the Moon. We will attempt to comfirm the date.

PD)).
