We have 2 ring cameras and the one at the back barely gives us warning , suddenly we had a movement, when we checked it 3 lights on the same line came from sky to ground then moved up back, we thought that they were bugs or something then we realized that we could see their lights on the ground and on trees. We might be wrong but what if we are right, if there is any movement on FAA radar that may help you, otherwise sorry for taking your time when you are watching the video

My wife and I were sitting in a parking lot discussing what were going to eat for dinner as the Ihop we were at just closed their doors. My attention was drawn to the sky as I saw a bright white light. I initially thought it was a "shooting star" until this half-diamond looking object ejected a fuschia, blue, and white stream of light. This object accelerated and disappeared in a matter of seconds leaving me screaming and my wife asking what was wrong.
