Bright color changing orb Walked out to Jeep at 8:08pm and somethjng so bright caught my attention and I realized it wasn’t an aircraft/drone/satellite/starlink so I rushed in to tell my wife and she ran out with her phone ok and captured it the best we could. We ruled out satellites and planes from tracking apps and have no idea what it was, but we submitted video as well.

Look like eight small lights on the bottom spinning counterclockwise The object did not move. It stayed in one position the whole time. The sun was reflecting, quite brightly off the bottom of it.
Through a pair of binoculars, I was able to see the lights rotating counter clockwise.

Extremely fast moving blinking white light with whitish trail behind, not a plane, falling star or satellite. I was looking at the clear night moonlit sky at around 11:30 pm when I saw a bright blinking light that was moving very rapidly across the southern sky at about a 45 degree angle from the horizon. It moved clear across the entire sky in a very quick time and left a trail of white behind it for a short distance.
I see airplanes, planets, falling stars and satellite s but it was non of these things, it moved so so fast across se to Sw horizon to horizon.

50 feet diameter in the middle. not sure how thick it was first one was moving due South then turned and went off to the South East. Then about a minute later a second one came straight overhead and traveling from the North due South without any change.
It was very calm not even a breeze, not a cloud in the sky. The objects had the appearance of transparancy like a cloud, white in color.

Long string of white lights. While outside my niece said “what’s that?” And pointed up. When we looked up there was a straight row of small lights.
We knew it wasn’t an ordinary air craft because none of the lights were blinking. The only way I can describe it is like a straight row of Christmas lights on a string. Some of the lights were white, some were blue, and some of them were green.
You could kind of make out a shape behind the lights that looked like a blimp shape. There were no clouds in the sky so it was strange when the object looked like it disappeared into nothing. They are saying it is a satellite on Facebook but still want to report.

Bright white orb with no sound. My friend and I were outside smoking on a clear sunny Sunday evening when we noticed a bright light moving in the sky roughly 1000-2000 ft above. Very bright white orb moving steady along with no sound.
Friend mentioned he herd nothing and the the light was 3 notches of brightness below the sun. The ball of light kept moving until out of view. Could clearly see the circumference of the orb and the light was extra bright from the very center with small rays emitting outward incased by the orb.
Also, there were other air craft in the area at cursing altitude and a few private planes entering and leaving the local airport.

A rectangular object that was circled by an orb. It was in the afternoon that I saw this UFO. It was approximately 15’ away and 4‘ off the ground.
The rectangular object was approximately 5” high by 7” wide. See attached drawing. It was silent.
I concentrated on it for about 7 seconds then the orb (approximately 3”in size) came from about 18” above the ground and went over the top off of the stationary object then under before leaving at about a 40 degree angle. Mufon “investigated” and deemed it was a reflection off a 3” solar light that is 15’ away or an airplane going over. Disappointed to say the least.
I will take as many polygraphs as needed.

Viewed a 5" by 5" UFO with an orbiter 15 ft away. Hello, October of 2020 I experienced something I have never seen reported. I was outside my home, in the backyard, around 2-3:00 pm.
I was sitting on my bench. I was looking to the left and when I looked back to the right I saw an object hovering appx. 4 feet off ground.
It was about 15 ft. away. I saw it and concentrated VERY hard at what I was seeing.
It was about 5 1/2” by 5 1/2”, it had three sections vertically.It appeared to be 3D. Cream colored.
About 5 seconds into it being there a textured white “bumpy” ball entered above it about 4”.It came in on the right and circled the square object and left at about a 40 degree angle. The entire experience lasted about 7-8 seconds.
I thought “My cell phone”!! My eyes darted to the right and when I immediately looked back it was gone. No sound whatsoever, no shadows. The really, really strange part is it felt as though I was being monitored or studied.
I had my dog out back but he was nowhere near when this happened. I went in and promptly told my husband. It took me awhile to get the courage up to contact MUFON.
They did send out an investigator and his friend.They took my info. When we went out back they found it suspicious that it really was 15ft.
Like how would I know how far 15 ft. is? They also questioned why I didn’t know where my dog was. They took all kinds of photos and measurements.
About 3 days later I got their decision on what it was. “It had to have been a reflection off of 2”x4” solar step light (15 ft.away in the daylight) or an airplane going over.
” To say I was beyond disappointed is an understatement!! I have included a drawing of what I saw. I would take as many polygraphs as needed. I swear on my life that this happened and it happened to me.
Thank you for whatever you decide to do with this. I pray that I hear something from you. Cleveland County.

a string of lights that went on for miles in the West sky, one brighter in front and two at the end. At 6:29 PM, I walked out of my workplace while on the phone, locked the door and started heading to my vehicle. I noticed in the sky a very long line of individual lights, one brighter in the front and two brighter in the back of the line.
It looked like it stretched for miles, then the lights just disappeared. The formation was to the West of me, and the lights were moving South-Southwest. On the way home I called my wife to tell her I saw a UFO, and she had seen something similar and described it to me before I told her about my experience.

Bright circular light in western sky in Oklahoma multiplied into total 13 lights, then into single light and suddenly disappeared. Visible for 5 minutes. In western sky looking outside my window at about 30 degree angle from horizon, I first saw a very bright solid light intermittently through light moving clouds that was not moving.
About one minute into observation, first a smaller circular bright light shot from main larger circular bright light to immediate left at fast rate downward zigzagging sharp angles, then instantly disappear. Then almost immediately, 12 smaller circular bright lights zoomed at high rate of speed from the larger bright white circular light at same fast speed outward in straight directions equally spaced around the center light in an octagonal like shape. All lights remained same luminous and did not move for about 4 minutes.
At about 5 minutes after initial sighting, the 12 smaller lights circled around the larger light at high rate of uniform speed returned to the larger light at same precise moment. Within few seconds the now original bright larger light without moving instantly disappeared.

Yellow and green, larger teardrop shaped object above southeast Norman. Observed the object while stopping at the intersection of highway 77 and cedar lane. It seemed to have been above Highway 9 and 24th Avenue, towards the east, possibly farther north.
It was much larger than a shooting star, teardrop shaped, glowing bright yellow with green around the edges. It seemed to have appeared in the middle of the sky suddenly, then fell towards the ground. I lost sight of it behind the trees and the neighborhood.
There was just one. I always assumed that there is intelligent life outside of our solar system, but I have never witnessed a UFO.
