3 small crafts were flying from my right to left following railroad tracks about 400 feet up -very hard to tell how big they were my vision seen them as maybe 5 feet in diameter - black disk shaped one broke away and I could not see it then joined back up with the two that were flying in a fixed straight pattern then all three followed the railroad tracks moving at a slow pace and slowly moved all three on top of each other spaced apart silently -no sound that I could hear and I have very good hearing

Worthington, OH

I was driving east on Snouffer Rd in Worthington, OH at 7:20AM. I was at a stopped light while looking up at the sky. The sky was completely clear with no clouds and the sun was rising. There was a black plane noted to the far right, which was easily identifiable but the sky was otherwise clear with no other planes or clouds. Suddenly, out of nowhere there was a bright white, round light that appeared straight eastward. The light hovered for about 10-20 seconds when suddenly a second bright white light appeared to the upper right of the first bright white object. They both hovered there with no movement for about 30-40 seconds. I was unable to stay and continue watching as I was at a stop light and unable to hold up traffic. They were clearly not airplanes and appeared as if two of the brightest stars I’ve ever seen just randomly appeared in the day sky.
