Full Report Text:
6 white/red objects moving west to east over Renton, WA Approximately 19:17 hours, over Renton, Washington, there were 6 objects flying from the west to east, in pairs of 2. No sound was heard, no flashing lights, just white/red beams. They appeared to be sub-sonic.
As approaching closer they were also climbing in altitude until each set of 2 disappeared into the clouds. Some video was taken via a tablet, though clarity isn’t the best. Shape of objects was not clearly seen, looking like round objects in the sky.
((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD)).

Full Report Text:
Two lights moving either E or N. Bright, then slowly dimmed same time and rate. Moved like in orbit, one after the other same speed.
My dad and I camped out in our backyard to star watch. We saw 2 lights. He says they were going North, and I say East.
We both agree they were two lights, at arms length about a tennis ball apart. They were bright at first, then faded a bit simultaniously. They seemed to move like they were in orbit.
My dad wishes me to include that if it was just one, perhaps it was a satalite, but because the consistent moving bodies dimmed (but not disapeared) at the exact same rate, that it seems it is something unique. The objects were traveling on the same path, not side by side.
Full Report Text:
Bright red lit aircraft turns green. Tonight, I witnessed object flying at low speed with multiple extremely luminous red lights from North to south. It raised up then down in a low amplitude arc then stopped abruptly.
It hovered for approximately 30 seconds, then all the lights turned green. Approximately 30 seconds after that a small (air craft looking) light green strobe started. The craft then raised and lowered a short distance before returning to its original position.
The craft then lowered below my sight line. No sound. I live in an area with a lot of air traffic, and this was unlike anything seen before.
It may be possible that it was a drone, however from the size, distance, and speed, I find it unlikely.
