3 Pyramid Shaped Objects
August 2, 2024 - Mahopac, New York

There were 3 large pyramid shapes in a line floating above the tree level off in the distance as I was driving. It was almost the same color as the sky but a shade lighter. My 15 year old son was in the passenger side next to me and asked “What is that?” I didn’t have an answer for him. We both were looking at it trying to figure it out when it flickered out and disappeared. We were in a rural area of Mahopac NY in the Hudson Valley area. My son checked his phone for a map of the area and there were no buildings ahead of us. We were driving in the area from Connecticut. I have no reasoning for why we saw that. This was approximately around 11:45 am. View Report

July 9, 2024 - New york, New York

My name is Alvin Smiley I'm from New York City, Manhattan 10029. I was in the Bronx on 163rd street 3rd avenue on July 9th 2024 and something made me look in the sky and I seen 3 lights in the form of a triangle. As people seen me looking up in the sky people started to take noticed also, and as we watched the 3 objects standing still all of a sudden they started to move going from west to east all of a sudden they disappeared right in front of our eyes then all of a sudden 3 more came from the direction of the first 3 and did the same thing and then another 3 did it 9 all together I couldn't believe it. I have 2 videos of the UFOs but only video of 3 of them bc things happen so fast I only could record what I could. View Report

February 6, 2024 - Woodside, New York

An orb that I saw about 8 weeks earlier FOUND MY HOME. I had seen it make its way towards Manhattan using clouds as cover on 12/2/23. After this I was meditating and asking to see it again. This night I was in the same parking lot I saw it the first time. I was wishing to see the object again to know it was real. Took me five minute to drive home. As I’m driving I’m asking the universe or whoever to show me this again. I pulled into my driveway and it was unusually bright. I look up and there it was AGAIN. How did it find me? How was I able to ask it to show up? Also, I thought - did not speak this: “ok do something like send me light so I know it’s you” and it did! It increased in size and brightness. Like a blast of light and power. It did this each time I thought those words. A helicopter was over this after some minutes and the planes which normally don’t come over us so low - came in so fast and low I was afraid they would hit the house or a building. I have videos of my sightings. View Report

UFO Chased by Aircraft
January 5, 2024 - Dix hills, New York

It was about 11:30 in the evening and I took my dogs out in the yard and I always look up at the night sky. It was a crystal clear night and the stars were in full view, but the air felt different. I love stargazing and looked up and I noticed a strange looking object in the sky and it made a very quick jerky movement and stopped. It was still in view and all of a sudden two airplanes came flying overhead in tandem heading towards the object and the object disappeared. I couldn’t tell if they were military planes or what type of planes they were but it seemed very strange that just as these planes flew over the object disappeared. View Report

December 2, 2023 - Woodside, New York

Saw an orb heading towards Manhattan as it was doing so it was trying to hide inside clouds. Finally it went into a cloud and never came out. During this event the orb made shifts in direction that no plane could do. I have lived here my entire life and we are close to the airports so we know what planes look like. Helicopters are also nothing unique here. What was and I will post this was 8 weeks later I had been meditating and asked the object to show up again. This night I was at the first location - a store parking lot. As I pulled out and made a five minute trip home, I asked to see it again. I did. It was over my home the moment I pulled into my driveway. View Report

Star-like Object Made U-Turn
October 4, 2023 - Queensbury, New York

I happened to be out walking my dog around 7:50 pm and looked up because I always do look up at the beautiful night sky. I saw this circular bright light that looked like a star; it was that far away, and it was going so fast to be a plane and did a U-turn from going east and then going north, then disappeared. It was a matter of seconds and gone. View Report

February 20, 2023 - Alfred, New York

I was outside walking to the store around 12:30. Just wanted to get some fresh air. I was walking downhill and I looked up and noticed about 10-15 lights in a triangular formation. When I looked close enough I could see the craft moving very slowing. Black pretty much blended in with the sky, almost like a shadow. What’s weird to me is how silent it was. Made no noise whatsoever. I could hear the stream of water down the hill. But did not hear anything from the craft. After a few seconds it passed over my head and disappeared into the clouds. Couldn’t regain sight of it. Very strange for sure. Idk if it’s military or what. But felt like I should post it on here to see what others may think. View Report

I live in a rural area of upstate NY. I love to stargaze and look up at the night sky. Just now I went out to start the car and immediately noticed what was a straight line of what looked like 12-15 stars moving in perfect sequence. I kept my eye on it and called me husband to come look. He caught a glimpse before it faded/disappeared. I have never seen anything like this and cannot fathom an explanation. View Report

February 14, 2023 - Saugerties/woodstock, New York

About 5:40 PM my 11-year-old son and I were driving on route 212 from Saugerties New York, to Woodstock, New York. It was twilight. Roughly halfway there, I saw something in the sky in front of me (south/southwest). It was in the distance. It was a perfectly straight column of opaque white smoke or vapor, with darker gray at the bottom. It looked perpendicular to the ground. To both my son and me, it looked like something was falling straight downward. It did not seem to be falling fast. We were able to see it for a couple of minutes before the road made a turn, and I lost sight of it. Neither of us saw it again, although we did see the empty sky where it should’ve been. A bright star or planet appeared there. My son and I were both very struck by how strange it was, and how unlike anything we had seen before. When I got home, I posted a description of the experience on Facebook. A friend who lives in the area mentioned that she had also seen it while driving and it looked the same to her. View Report

While driving on Fix road Grand Island NY around 7:30pm Sunday night I saw an object that had about 15 bright lights lined up vertically. As I was traveling in a westerly direction the object was in the western sky around a 10 O’clock position. The lights were only bright for about 10 seconds and then disappeared. This was not a shooting star, the object was quit large and the lights were tightly spaced and aligned vertically. This is the first UFO my wife and I ever witnessed. View Report

January 19, 2023 - Walworth, New York

What looked like a bright star had flashing/blinking lights. Every 10 or 20 seconds lights seemed to shoot out from the "star" and then stop, almost like along a wing. These were white or blue (I honestly couldn't tell!) They shot from around the entire "star" so it definitely wasn't a far away plane. I watched it for about 10 minutes to make sure I was really seeing the lights and it wasn't just my eyes. View Report

I think this was a drone that I saw and it was hovering above me and close and following menacingly and with a purpose. I’m not 100% sure though. Roughly 200 feet in the air. It followed me and was right above and as I stopped to see if it would keep on going, it stopped. Very interesting. View Report

January 15, 2023 - Staten island, New York

the time was approximately 1:20 in the morning. I was walking through a store parking lot, looked up in the sky above me, and what I had seen was several dots or object like things in the sky that was lit and visible. There had to have been around 30 of them moving in a simultaneous line going in one direction. My first thought was it had to have been satellites, or some kind of projection, but I looked up what was going on in my area and nothing of that nature was occurring last night. Very strange and I can’t seem to explain what that was, I tried recording but weirdly, my camera on my iPhone would not pick up those objects when I tried zooming in on them, it was just cloudy but I could visually still see them moving. They just went away very shortly after. View Report

I was looking up at the sky around 10:00PM at the Catskill Scenic Overlook just passed Minnewaska State Park. I saw what appeared to be one large star and a smaller triangular stars moving in unison. Clouds were slowly moving towards it, so I am not sure if it was an obstacle allusion that this star formation was moving. The other stars were still, so I believe they were moving. I am wondering if this "star formation" was satellites or something else! View Report

So I see what looks like a beautiful star that’s kind of close and I’m looking at it for a few minutes it’s completely not moving and then it moves like really slowly. I’m like yo what the hell and then it stops and then it starts again and there was like some sort of buddy of flying by with him and then they both went back and then the first one came for it again it went back a little bit and he hears like I was like oh it’s a drone. Whatever of he comes forward the entire sky blacks out I swear to God like this there were no stars released as far as I could see. It was nuts I guess and I am too. Oh I didn’t have my phone out with me. I really didn’t want to move which is stupid because if I would’ve gotten got my phone I could’ve seen like that cool black out the sky thing so what I got was afterwards and I guess that looks pretty drone. I guess it can all be explained except for that. How did this guy go black? View Report

I was driving north past the Vanderbilt Estate on Route 9 in Hyde Park, New York. It was about 5:40pm. I looked upward and saw what I initially thought were lights on a radio tower. Then I realized there is no radio tower on the Vanderbilt property. Then, thought perhaps it is a plane or helicopter. But it was not moving. I rolled down my window to hear an engine sound. It was completely quiet. The three lights in the sky were motionless. They were lights on the points of a triangle. It seemed to be grayish between the lights - like the underbelly of an object. Totally quiet. Totally motionless. I could not pull over - so I drove about a mile & turned around to go back to where I saw it. It was gone. No sign of it. This experience did not frighten me - which I find amazing. I felt calm. Did anyone else in the area see this? I am so curious to know & to speak with someone who could understand my experience. I KNOW it was not a plane, helicopter or weather balloon as detractors will say it was. View Report

Saw a bright light up in the sky that looked like it was hovering in one place it went up and down, to the right then the left, even looked as though it did a few loops. Also looked as though it had a orange red light as well. It seemed to of come down some being I could actually see an object which looked like a sphere but also like it had an outer layer, an outline that changed form. We also saw a white circle/ball fly right down to the right towards the lake. I’ve seen these kind of things many of times the past year but of course nobody listens and says they’re moving stars. I’ve never seen a star move around like that or change. View Report

Finished a hunting trip with my friends dan at Plainfield state forest , about 20 minutes after last light was we were driving down a dirt road out going south west. I had to urinate, I pulled over in my truck and jumped out to pee quick . It was a clear night, while I was peeing I noticed a light moving . As it caught my attention and I looked closer I noticed three lights in the shape of a triangle. At that point I could make out the outline shape of the large triangular craft. It was very big, estimating it was maybe 1/4 mile away it looked the size of a football field, black , no noise and was not moving . I called to my friend dan to come look. At first he assumed as I did it was airplane lights , but once he seen the size , shape and the fact it was not moving he became very panicked and fearful . We watched the craft and it started moving vertically up at a slow pace then continued southwest and after about 1 minute seemed to disappear. Dan was in denial for a few days so I seconded guessed what I had seen . After a few days we both agreed in no way it could have been an airplane . That night I will never forgot and think about it every time I enter the woods . It’s been a few years and still trying to figure it out after watching the documentary “ missing 411” as another hunter described exactly the same type of craft I seen I decided to report my event here .

January 4, 2019 - Malone, New York

On Jan 4th 2019, I remember the exact date at about 6:00pm eastern, I was in Upstate Correctional Facility in North country Ny. I was in solitary confinement with a bunky when our rec pens attached to our cells popped for rec. it was already dark at this time as in the winter it always gets dark early up here. Me and about 80-100 other inmates saw a craft in the sky that quickly became the topic of discussion. At first we all waved it off to be new tech drones or something. Mind you we are in North Country where NY connects to Canada, I can see Montreal from my cell. So maybe border control drones. Is was weirdly circular like the average ufo ? depiction. We all noticed that lights kept flashing in a circular quick motion around the rim and with every motion the light became a different color. Then as I suspected it to be a ufo another one appeared! Doing the same exact thing but higher and to the right! Then after about 5 mins another appeared! Then the highest one which was the second to appear literally just took off faster then my eyes can register. Then we all got rowdy and conspiracy theories started flowing with our human already rapidly thinking brains as we are incarcerated men. The other two UFOs literally stayed there for the remainder of our rec period. When we locked back in they appeared to have left about 15 mins later but I did not see the other two leave. I also noticed later that night the C.O was recounting the sighting to the nightshift C.O. That came in. Very strange twilight zone feel to the whole memory. View Report

This was a very hot day very hot ! In the day it was probably 99• degrees & at night it was 88 when we saw it but we weren’t the only ones it’s queens everyone was out it’s summer. I just stopped and knew I had a pair of old theatre binoculars in the car so I grab them and start viewing this thing close up. It was alone in a pod as soon as it knew it was spotted he slowly started to go higher and away from us I started to track it in the car , it played with me (humored) me for a little longer he basically had me follow it onto northern Blvd going east then he just accelerated fast into the sky and vanished!! What I just reported was the absolute truth and I believe what my wife and I seen was the best eye witness of a UFO ever!!! Honestly because it was 30 feet from us just there in the tree line just watching us. What I strongly believe is that this alien who seemed to be a teenager because it’s actions it almost seemed that it was dared to come as close to us as possible. View Report

Close Encounter with Bright UFO
August 13, 2015 - Napoli, New York

3 of us were sitting on the open deck of my friends cabin around midnight . Suddenly Danny said what is that and pointed south. (This cabin is sourronded by tall trees) I turned my head to the left and the woods were lit up from above with extremely bright pure white light from a slow moving object that was just huge in size. This object moved right above us and completely lit up the entire area.. the shadows from the trees Were moving all around us as the object moved slowly overhead and north. There was complete silence the entire time and no wind or tree rustling was happening at all. The light appeared to be about 100 feet above the tree tops. It is so vivid to this day to see the dancing leaf shadows all around us. The light slowly moved north and disappeared.. roughly 2 minutes later 2 very low flying and slow moving jets flew right over us heading north. All 3 of us were basically in shock and didn't speak much. I don't know if we lost time or what happened. To this day we don't know the date or even year this occurred. It was summer and roughly 6,7,8 years ago. View Report

Dark, Rotating UFO
November 2, 2012 - Howard beach, New York

In 2012 I had a second job as a Doorman in Roma View a catering place in Howard Beach NY. One day that I will remember for the rest of my life. I took a brake and walk to the ocean canal just 20 feet from the catering door, while I was smoking a cigarette I notice at the end of the canal where is a CVS what I thought it was a party silver balloon that a kid probably lost. I kept smoking and I begin to notice it did not went up, it was just floating probably only 20 feet in the air, but it started moving horizontally through the canal at my direction, I still that moment I thought that still was a balloon, but then it came in front of me 10 feet and it was not a balloon. It was probably 2 meters diameter and completely round, the circumference was dark and all in the interior surface was rotating in a like silver sprinkles, I froze because it was so close but I was not afraid, it lasted 5 seconds it was just only 10 feet from me, tried to grab my phone but in that second it went up the sky at an incredible speed not as any thing or plane that is from this Earth. When it was gone, I started crying because all my Religious believes were gone, I knew I was a lucky one, a chosen or something like that, I told my son who worked there and coworkers and they told me a night before many people saw lights in the sky. This is so true and am willing to take any lie detector test or hypnosis because I swear is true! Something inside me changed after this encounter! It was not big a 2 meter diameter and I believe was some kind of drone because I felt it was looking at me! View Report

Me and my brother-in-law Matthew were setting up my telescope on Manhattan Street overlooking general electric in Schenectady New York. That evening it was very clear outside lots of stars, easy for us to use my planet finding app on my phone to look at Jupiter through my telescope. As I was adjusting the laser finder on the top of my telescope both me and my brother-in-law looked up over GE and then we seen a UFO it came streaking over GE like a meteorite at first I thought that's what it was, it was moving very fast like a meteorite wood AKA a shooting star, but then as it was moving from west to east and a very rapid rate of speed it then shot straight up in a right angle turn with not even slowing down at all must have been going Mach 10 Mach 15. We both then asked each other oh my god did you see that? And we were both floored by the whole thing. I have no way to explain it in any way by using modern human technology as my guide and explaining this. There is nothing that I know of that would be able to withstand those g-forces or to be able to travel that speed without slowing down making turns that ignore gravity's effects completely.

This sighting occurred some time in very late July or some time in August 2007. My sister was sitting on the porch of our house in Marcy, NY. She was facing south. We were talking about the 7th Harry Potter book. As I was talking, I stepped down off the porch and turned around back toward the house. As I turned to face north, I saw a dark red sphere up in the air approximately 150 feet away from me, behind the northeastern corner of the house. As soon as I saw it, I stopped talking mid-sentence. It was approximately 40 feet off the ground, just above the treetops, and was initially stationary. A second or so after I noticed it, the sphere moved silently to the east at approximately 15-20 mph. The object moved slowly and deliberately, holding its altitude and maintaining its vector as if with precision, and apparently moving of its own accord. It did not appear to be blown around randomly, as if by the wind. After several seconds the object became obscured behind the trees and then completely out of sight. After a moment of silence, I said to my sister "I just saw a UFO." I was never scared, but it was strange to see such an object in the air. I wish I had gotten in the car and tried to follow it, but I think I was in disbelief and didn't know how to react. Never saw anything like it again. View Report
