My mother and I were driving northbound on I-95 in the Clinton area. It was extremely dark outside despite the full moon. There were also tons of cars in the highway, so I'm sure my mother and I are not the only ones who've seen this.
Out of nowhere to my left appeared these tiny orange lights, at least 15 of them. First they were in a few S formations then a large triangle then just a blob I guess you could say. I couldn't take a picture because I was driving 70 mph and my mother isn't extremely tech savvy.
It seemed that they were just hovering, as i said i was driving 70mph and no matter how far i drove they were still above me. Within 4 minutes, I had suddenly passed them and they vanished. I had the most eerie feeling and have checked the papers today and there's no mention of any explanation.
I may not know what they were but i know that it was not a bunch of planes, shooting stars or meteors. I can't stop thinking about those lights!!.

I knew it was something strange and I went to go get my camera. I was at my storage unit and looked at the horizon for no reason when I noticed a blinking white light. The light was different and it did not compare to anything I have seen at this location.
I am very familiar with the air traffic at this location because I have been coming here for years and have seen all types of air traffic at all times of day and night in all types of weather. I sensed something about this light and decided to get my camera.It acted too different so I knew it was interesting shortly after seeing it.
I use a Flip Digital camera and was not sure if it would even pick it up. I filmed it and I became more interested and decided to get my binoculars so as to see if this was something I could identify. I put my camera down and viewed it.
When I finally found it in my viewfinder it rose at a somewhat 45 degree angle and either imitated a planes lights or placed itself behind a plane, it seemed to me it had done something deceptive. I watched what now looked like a standard flashing plane (jet)lighting pattern and it continued on a lateral course until I became bored and stopped watching.

I am starting to see the lights in the sky again. It was a gold color but up very high like in space. No strobes, red, green lights.
A plane was not very far behind it. May have been chasing. I am sure pilot would have seen it at least on radar.
Yes could have been a satellite but I do not think so. I am going to start to have the camera and camcorder near by. I could not get it fast enough.
I have had it ready but my wife took it back upstairs to store. Really screwed me up. I will try to have a picture next time.
They come and then they stop. once I see one I will start seeing them a lot. Then they go away again for a while.
Thanks.

Standing on my back deck at approximately midnight having a cigarette before going to bed a green sphere appeared at tree top level On the approximate date this object appeared above the driveway next to my home . This object wasn't there moments before. It was at treetop level.
The object glowed with a light green color. It was about 10 foot in diameter and Only 40 feet away, it made almost no sound. a slight humm was all I could hear.
It was extremely stable, not moving or swaying. My first thought was that of shock or amazement. That lasted a few moments, I found it hard to believe what I was seeing.
I wanted to call for my wife or grab a camera while at the same time I thought if I yelled or left it would disappear so I stayed where I was. It was as if we ( if someone or something were in the craft) were watching and observing each other. The craft stayed perfectly still all the time.
Not outside propulsion source was visible, only the slight humming sound. After about 10 or 15 minutes ( I lost track of time) The humm elevated and the craft sped off. It was gone in the blink of an eye with a speed that was indescribable.
With Google earth you can see the back deck if it hasn't been changed and the driveway I'm referencing for proximity. The strange thing is, about two weeks later I had a Stroke. Not a serious stroke.
However one that effected my equilibrium. I, to this day wonder if that may have been a side effect. Until now only Three people have been told of my experience.
I was always reluctant to speak of it because of what I have heard how others were looked at and treated for bringing their experience to light.
