Falling object and two possible aircraft While driving west on Lynn Rd I noticed what I originally thought was a meteor. It appeared to be something falling with a tail lit up behind it. I also noticed 2 small objects to the right of the falling object.

I thought they were small planes watching from a safe distance what was happening. They were just lights or light reflecting from the sun off of them. Instantly one of the small lights disappeared, and then the other did as well.

The falling object made a steep change towards the opposite direction and continued to fall. I watched as I turned north on Leesville Rd until the trees obstructed my view. I took a picture on my phone of the falling object from my car.

The object appears just above the lower trees on the left. You have to zoom in to see it. It looks like a fuzzy streak and that distance.

It was flying low and moving fast without a sound It was close to 5:00a.m. and I went to the store just about 5 miles from where I live south on US70, I got to the store at 5:00a.

m., I got what I needed then I walked back to my car got in and started to drive, I was going North to get back home on US70 the time was now 5:15a.m.

and something told me to glance over my left shoulder, I looked and thêre it was l, a bright light flying fast and flying low, my first thought was this is flying too low to be a plane but I said nevermind and kept driving, I finally get to a point where I could turn left off of US70 so I did, soon as I turned the light turned to the left with me. I told myself ok I didn't just see that I must be tired and seeing things so I kept driving, on my left hand side is Clayton high school but now the light is on my right hand side and seems to be getting loét, I make it to a stop sign on main street and I make a right turn, the light turns to the right with me, At this point I'm starting to think I'm going crazy cause I know nothing of this world can do that so I tell myself jokingly I'm going to stop and if this light stops I'm getting out of hêre so I stop, The light went about 2 or 3 feet then stopped in mid Air, once I saw that I freaked out, it didn't move until I made a U-turn and started following me again, I made my way back to US70 going south and it followed me all the way back to the store I originally went to, I parked and got out and thêre it was hovering above the store but now it was higher up in the air, it was making slow movements inch by inch in all directions, People that came in and out of store I pointed it out to thêm and they all said they didn't know what it was especially cause they even pointed out the stars that were in the sky and we all agreed what we were looking at definitely wasn't a star, I took out my phone and started to film then I got back in my car and stayed in my car until 6:30a.m.

The light was still above the store, I told mýelf I'm going to drive to another store 5 miles from this one going North, I started driving and the light took off following me again slightly ahead of me until I reach the store, I got out to film it but thí time it wasn't showing on my screen, I could see it with my eyes but it wasn't showing on my screen, it's 7:00am I get back on the car and start to drive home. The light followed me until I almost got home then it vanished, My video is short but the few people I sent it to that are like me and done believe in this kind of stuff all said they can't explain what they are looking at.

Large green lit rectangular flying object that appeared to have windows very unison. It slightly wormed in and out of the clouds. This object had no sound and if I had to guess, I would place it at 10,000 feet.

It looked more of a see through rectangular object with windows rather than a solid mass and it was green in color (the color of a star pointer green). It came in from the Nortwest and was flying due east. It seemed to glide with ease and no engine.

Extremely bright flash occuring overhead every thirteen seconds. My brother and I witnessed a small but extremely bright flash of light occuring overhead every thirteen seconds around 9:22 pm on August 13, 2023. The flash had no visible cause and occurred at different locations in the sky moving slowly south.

It did not appear to be moving in a straight line and no vehicle of any kind was visable. At the same time, we were able to see airplanes with flashing lights moving across the night sky. We could not follow whatever it was, but had to simply wait for it to flash to know it's location.

It did not appear to be a satellite, plane, or military flare. It was a clear night with stars visible and a really bright moon.

3 Disc shaped craft moving 10 times the speed of the plane i was watching already I went outside to get some air, I looked up directly over my head and was watching a plane fly over and all of a sudden these 3 Disc shaped craft came flying up on the plane and seemed like they were chasing it, but when they got close, 2 of them kept going and one hung back and seemed to kind of circle the plane one time and then took off and caught back up with the other 2! They seemed like they were racing each other, they would drift towards each other and then separate! This all happened in less than 5 sec! I could easily identify the plane ! It had blinking lights on tale and wings, the other 3 did not to seem to have any lights at all, but were putting off some kind of glowing light! Could have been slightly still lit by the sun Maybe not real sure! I just know 100% what I saw, and they were not planes! Moving faster than anything I've ever seen, I have watched satellites fly over and I pretty much know there speed, these things were not satellites, I could tell they were or had been messing around with that plane! I really wish I could talk to the Pilots of that plane! They were so close to the plane, the Pilots had to have seen them go Screaming by! And I know these were not jets! Jets can't move the way these things were moving! That one that slowed down almost came to a complete stop and then changed directions several times circling that plane!.

Bright orange red light, appeared to be half moon, but was in west sky, just over a treeline Let the dog out approximately at midnight. The "moon" was so bright it appeared to be a harvest moon, but the color was so bright and reddish in color. There was no sound.

Moon appeared to be stationary above the lake. The shape was not fully rounded - more half to crescent, yet 3-D. Watched it for about a minuted, then took a picture to share with my family.

Picture was taken from inside a screened in porch due to elevation when attempted to take picture outside that area. Returned inside, thinking it was just a pretty moon. Asked my adult son to look at the "moon" that it was really bright.

When he went out, he could not see anything. I returned outside and could no longer see anything. I looked up moon rise and set times and it did not appear to correlate with this sighting.

Driving I 77 north for 2 nights, saw two lights like satellites but they moved around each other and stayed in one area. They also would dim out regularly, and reappear like a dimmable bulb, but they would be in a different pattern, sometime close together, sometime a few degrees apart. First on Tuesday and then tonight.

Same stretch of road, 2 or 3 am. I had to exit off I 77 and take my semi to the shop around the Jonesville/Boonville area. And on my way home I stopped at a couple places that face north on highway 67 east, to see if I could get a video, but no luck.

I will report again when I run this route again.

Multiple orbs of light that seem to move in the same direction and then disappear in the same spot. All witnesses observed multiple orbs of light that seemed to move in the same direction and disappear and then reappear in the original spot they first appeared. During this the some orbs would get brighter and dimmer.

At times it appeared that orbs of light would spawn from other orbs. This incident was observed by myself and 4 other police officers and 1 citizen.

Saw bright shapes while hiking with the family…two stayed together and moved at a normal speed southwest and one moved northeast. Three orb to diamond shaped objects that did not appear to be airplanes moving at a slow speed occasionally at rest…one object moved northeast and the other two moved southwest at one point almost touching. They seemed to go at a speed similar to airplanes but didn’t quite match the shape, one object appeared to blink slightly…not saying they were anything unusual just not entirely sure what they were.

9 Fireballs/Lights Seen to the Northeast of Wilmington NC Just before 2am on 8/6/2023 I spotted 9 objects in the sky to the Northeast of Wilmington NC. I first spotted two objects, one trailing the other from West to East. The speed of the objects made me think they may have been some types of Satellites as their speed matched other known Satellites and the ISS track speeds.

The appearance seemed to suggest one of two things, either sunlight reflection off of a Satellite solar panel or the emission of thruster gases. The objects were moving too slow to be Meteors. Upon checking my security camera playback, I noticed that there were multiple objects traveling in the same general direction (West to East) that I had not seen before or after the two objects I saw with my own eyes.

Some of those objects were traveling across the path of the previous objects (going South to North). They were in the same general location in the sky looking Northeast from my location. I have previously seen multiple similar events over the last year and made an attempt to validate these objects with known Satellites but no data matched the events.

The brief flash of light on these objects had a fade-in/out effect and an average duration of 5 to 7 seconds. They never maneuvered, moved only in a straight line. I have also seen these object events towards the North-West direction and some have recorded seeing these types of events off the coast (over the ocean) in broad daylight over the last several months.

The objects emitted no sounds or sonic booms. Am unable to upload the event video due to the file size. Here is a link to my video: https://www.

White light between 1000 and 5000 feet above moved from a westerly to easterly direction. I began to see the object/light from about a mile away. It had the brightness of a 100-watt light bulb at 300 feet away.

It passed overhead at a steady speed, in a straight line. No blinking, no sound. A single white light.

I watched it until it went out of sight, maybe 2 miles east of my home. I was on the back deck tossing the ball to one of my dogs when the event occurred. There were a few light wispy clouds overhead.

Several planes went by while I sat for 30 minutes, and they all went out of sight at moments because they were above the few clouds.

Sphere in the sky not as high as maybe 15,000 - 10,000 feet, then unknown A clear day facing North East standing outside my car at the park grabbing my camera to go walking like always I look up and there's something that's bright white and from a distance I was gonna say a star but it was still daylight it kind of looked more oval shaped so I knew it wasn't a plane or satellite because it just hovered in the same spot, adjusted my camera to zoom in snapped a photo told my buddy to get out the car and he couldn't see it with his own eyes (he might have bad eye sight we don't know), I watched it with my eyes for a second trying to point it to him, but then I tried to fire off a second and third shot or get video, but then from visible eyesight you no longer could see it so I just snapped the sky in relation to where I was to paint a better picture of the location and height in these photos of the sky after, you can see in the top right still something is there where the craft was. Photos taken on a cannon powershot sx410 is, settings used ISO 1600, 16:9, auto focus was on, if it stayed longer definitely would have changed settings for more shots.

Red light that appeared high in the sky, grew in size and then split into 15-20 individual red lights, then vanished. I saw a very strange thing on the night of 24 Jul 2023 at 2130. I was laying in bed and just happened to open my eyes and saw a red "star" in the sky that was very bright.

I instantly thought it was Mars and just looked at it for a second or two before I realized that it was moving towards the South. As I watched it move, it grew in size to about the size of the Moon and I decided to wake up my wife. I asked her what it was and she immediately said, "that is the Moon.

" I pointed out that the Moon was higher up and while I showing her the Moon, the object split into a bunch of red "stars" and grew to about the size of the Sun when it is on the horizon. There were probably 15 or 20 stars all arranged in a circle. They then expanded outward slightly and intensified their illumination and then vanished.

The lights seemed to be at an altitude of about 10,000 feet. The whole event lasted about 30 seconds, so I didn't have time to get a camera or go outside. It was the craziest thing that my wife and I have ever seen.

Somebody said it could have been StarLink, but these were red lights and not in a straight line. They made a semetrical circle with all of the lights evenly spaced. A coworker told me that there was a Facebook post asking if anyone saw the red lights the night before, but he didn't read it and couldn't give me the details.

I don't have Facebook, but I know a lot of people do. Any insight would be awesome. Thank you.

Light that at first appeared as a satellite that instantly made a 120-deg turn & accelerated away Witness observed a light that at first looked to be a normal satellite transiting the sky, about 45 degrees above the horizon while looking out to sea. It appeared to be moving in a south / southeast direction. After observing this dim star-like light for about 15 seconds, it executed an immediate ~ 120-degree turn to the left (from the witness’ perspective) and instantly accelerated to a velocity that was about 10x its original speed.

The light sped away and disappeared within about a second after making the turn.
