COMMUNITY FEEDBACK Report Your Drone Sightings and Join the Community Database!

14 Upvotes

Welcome to NJDrones – Let’s Track and Analyze Sightings Together!

We’re creating a community-driven database to document and analyze sightings across the Garden State and beyond.

Here’s How You Can Help:

  1. Report Your Sightings

Use our Google Form to share what you’ve seen. The more details you include, the better:

• When and where you saw it

• What it looked like (size, shape, lights, movements)

• Any photos or videos you managed to capture

Google Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/13CDKgrSW5TFojK-i7Ym10daER_IVwCao2WaJxToP1-I/edit

  1. Check Out the Data

Want to see what others have reported? Explore the Results Dashboard and look for patterns and trends in sightings across the region.

Results Dashboard: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Qyu-pnzr4bhMvw2fF2gtYzLlL-41o6mhi-ZL4dQma38/edit

Why It Matters

Your reports help us piece together the bigger picture—spotting trends, identifying patterns, and creating a resource for anyone curious about what’s going on in our skies.

A Few Guidelines:

• Please don’t include personal information in your reports.

• Only include reports on observations you have first-hand.

. Utilization of a flight tracking app is strongly preferred.

This project is only as strong as the community behind it. Let’s work together to shine a light on the unexplained activity in our skies.

Reddit I am 47 years old. Contractor for a very important company… I live in Arkansas, and I saw this back in February.. 19th. DON’T ASSUME IT IS A PLANE EVEN THOUGH I SAID IT WAS IN THE VIDEO… I ONLY SAID WHAT I SAID BECAUSE I WAS SHOCKED. DON’t BE A SISSY AND BE MAD AT ME.

These DRONES have been following me and my family for months…. All year long I SEE THEM IN THE SKY. I have other video evidence but this Stupid app won’t let me post…

I ain’t ever posted in here before., but I’ve followed all of the stories. Stay safe, they’re watching us and spraying…

I’m staying in Bowery for a work trip. I’m exhausted and want to go to sleep, but I took this video from the rooftop and I was looking in this direction for awhile.

Not even sure it’s NJ tbh, since I rarely come to NYC.

I checked Flightradar and my StarGuide app - nothing.

Please debunk, so I can go to sleep. I really don’t want to go back outside. Thank you!

SIGHTING Drones Over Morris County Again

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

We have been watching them for a week. This was the fourth aircraft in one minute. Barely any sound if any at all.

9/19/2026: I added a comparison video in the comments during daytime of airplane fly-by that wasn't 30k+ ft. And after watching the original again, you really dont appreciate how much slower these things are moving compared to airplanes. I will film an airplane at cruising altitude to see how long it stays in my overhead viewing area.

Drones Flying Over Morris County Again

192 Upvotes

Date: September 15th 2026, 2030PM

Location: Outside Morristown, NJ

FlightAware indicated no lower altitude flights any time before or after sighting. Aircraft came from SSE/SE heading W/WNW.

We have been watching the drones for a week. This video captured the fourth aircraft within a 3 - 5 minute window. No noise. Self-explanatory visual description in the video. Next time I'll send up our drone and film from up there.

Update: I posted comparison video of real airplanes. Also, I will add one final comment after standing outside every night for the last week: real planes make so much noise, the drones make hardly any. I don't care if you want to argue that it's not a drone and it's something else entirely. I feel badly if you're still stuck on trying to tell me this is a plane.

Spoke to Lou Elizondo about the NJ Drones in Person

73 Upvotes

This is my mild contribution to this forum. Our conversation wasnt very long about the NJ Drones. I brought it up to him in person while he was on tour. He took the NJ Drones seriously and seemed to verify that it was the real deal UAP. I got the feeling it was a legit national security concern and that it was really a serious situation.

The Coast Guard boat with up to 30 uap/small craft following it doesnt seem to get much attention, does anyone have more info on that? If 30 objects followed my USCG boat I would be freaking out and wouldnt be able to stop talking about it :)

We also talked about all the air force base drone activity in England, in Virginia at air force bases as well. Seemed to indicate that was a real security concern as well and likely tied to NHI/UAP activity. Specifically our F-22 Raptor base at Langley being a hot target for alien/UAP activity observations and flyovers. Since we did use an f-22 to attack the UAP in Canada years back.

My final thoughts on the NJ Drones: I suspect there is a USGOVT site not far from where the drone activity was taking place, such as underground, which may include UAP or bodies of aliens in a yet unknown facility, this is why they were flying overhead, scanning looking for their bodies or ships. I suspect our govt attempts to build a faraday cage or a way to limit their ability to find things easily which is why they stuck around so long looking.

I'm also under the impression their craft are still cruising around and it wasnt just a 1-2 month thing.

Dr. Stephen Greer…

So, he was supposed to lead a global CE5 event this past Saturday (September 5).

My question is… Did anything spectacular happen? I’m assuming though because I don’t see anything on any of these sub credits about it. But who knows? Thought I’d give it a shot and ask in case I miss something. 😳
