I was outside and looked up and saw a triangular shape flying few seconds later it disappeared with a flash of light. I was outside and I looked up and saw a triangular shape flying not very high above me. Maybe approximately 60 feet above the tallest trees in the distance.
Initially I thought it was a drone but it was too big but also too small to be a plane. Maybe the size of a small 4 door car. It didn't make any sounds like a plane or helicopter would.
It was quiet. There was a light at each corner, a green, silver, and red. The green was pointed at the "top" and then in clockwise was silver on the bottom right and red at the bottom left corner.
It was flying northeast and I watched it for approximately 15 seconds and it disappeared. I then turned towards my left and looked up and a silver flash caught my eye. It seemed to be going up.
It literally only last a second maybe less and was gone in the blink of an eye. It too looked triangular but because of the angle it seemed to be going, I only could see the base of it. So like a triangle with the top missing.
It flashed a really bight Silver and then was gone. I went and got my husband and then we both stood outside for quite a while afterwards but saw nothing else. I then got online to try and see if anyone else may have saw or reported what I did and came across this reporting site.
I was hesitant to report but at the urging of my husband I did. I've only ever seen one other weird object in the sky many years ago when I was younger but nothing ever like this. It was so clear and looked nothing like anything I've ever seen before.

Shape shifting white star like orb appears and splits into 2 orbs. I was driving down the road when I seen a bright orb like light moving through the night sky. I stopped the truck.
I picked something out to make sure wasn’t a star. And it continued to move. I got out my truck and started to take a video.
It then stopped. And it was still moving up and down and right to left all while it would disappear and then reappear. There was no houses or anybody around and I started feel like I was being watched.
I stepped away from the truck and over by a tree to block myself from its view to just make sure this isn’t really happening and prove to myself it wasn’t watching me. A short moment and it made its way around the tree and we was looking at each other again. It was hard to judge the distance.
I started to film it. It would disappear and reappear. And 3 times It would split into 2 orbs before quickly going back to one.
I have the video and pictures. I got into my truck and drove to a more comfortable spot just in case anything bad was to happen. Right before the light started to break the horizon, it went directly east in the sky before completely disappearing.
•Weirdest thing of all while watching this phenomenon while standing outside of my vehicle, my windshield wipers came on for a split 3 seconds. My truck was off. I was already on edge trying to understand.
They came on and it was so loud it about gave me attack. It’s a new truck and never done anything like that. When I got into my truck and hit the start button, my radio was set on Christian station.
It’s not even saved in my truck.

I saw a long row of lights with a slight haze around them that appeared to have no wings or tail and flying in a non-typical fashion. In early evening of Friday, Dec 3, 2021, around 6:25pm I was walking around the block on my usual two-mile walk. I reside in the Ashmoor subdivision located in the western portion in the city of Mobile, Al.
The neighborhood I was in when I spotted the object in the sky is Westchester, which is adjacent to my neighborhood. It was already fully dark outside. I had just left Ashmoor subdivision and entered the Westchester subdivision.
My route takes me to Westchester Ln S in the direction of Grelot Rd. When I turned left onto Westchester Ln S off of Westchester Run, I immediately noticed a long glowing object to my West not far above the tree line that made me first think of a comet. As I continued to walk and focus on the object, I realized it was not as far away as I had first thought and was slowly moving to the northeast.
My thoughts then shifted to this being a blimp. I then noticed that this object was flying in a very peculiar way. I could see what were small individual lights in perfect formation forming what would be a long straight row of lights in a possible rectangle or disk shape with no apparent wings or tail.
The strange thing was the way the object was maintaining its altitude, however, in the direction it was flying, the front of the row of lights were much lower than lights in what would be the rear of the object. I then ruled this out as a blimp because there were no lights on top, front or rear of the object. It also appeared much too narrow to be a blimp.
The object was also too long to be a helicopter. My last thought was ok, this has to be an airplane, however, there were no lights where there would normally be if the object had wings or a tail; there was only one long straight row of lights. I quickly called home and had my wife and son go outside and look to their north.
I stayed on the phone and asked them if they saw the object. They were only about 1 to 2 blocks away from my location. They both said they saw the object and I asked my son to also take a photo and a video if he had time.
My son snapped the picture that you will see attached to the form. The photo I took did not come out clearly. After I snapped my photo and my son confirmed he had taken one, I was going to take a video and I also asked him to video the object but in the few seconds we had been occupied snapping our photos, the object was gone.
At the rate of speed it had been moving in the total time I had viewed it, over about 30 seconds I’m guessing, it still should have been visible before it flew over the tree line. It must have accelerated in the few seconds we were looking down to swipe from photo to video on our phones and when I looked up it was no longer anywhere to be seen. The object can be found on the attached photo to the lower right of the bright planet or star in the center of the sky.
The object is also almost straight above the bright streetlight you can see in front of the house straight ahead. The object was moving to the right as you look at the photo. As you can see the front of the object was pitched way down in comparison to the rear.
The object remained pitched forward like this the whole time I viewed it, about 30 seconds, and it did not appear to be decreasing its altitude.
