Approximately 2140 my husband and I were in spa on deck when I looked up and saw what I thought was a plane. My husband said it was moving too fast to be a plane. We saw 30 of these moving objects in formation of equal distance appearing from the same area in the sky, one after another in a row, steady and looked like evenly spaced. It was a clear night, we could see plenty of stars and also a couple of planes. We could not see them off in the distance as the moon was bright. May 3, 2020 with full moon in a few days. We heard a rumble like planes in the distance but we are also near the Pacific Ocean so it was not clear if the rumble was from the air travel. We looked to see if they were repeating a formation like some type of training but could not see that. They seemed to come out of nowhere in the same area and go off into the South. Coming from the North to South in the Western sky above my home.

On Saturday evening at around 10:15 pm I stepped out on my deck as usual to look up at the stars and noticed approx 8 or so lights traveling in a V flight formation from east to west over the pacific ocean. The lights were not bright but very distinct and at the rate of speed they where moving, it seemed it was only a couple of seconds as they traveled the visible night sky from east to west before I lost track of them over the pacific. In that V Pattern and at that rate of speed each individual light was pulsing within that V as they travelled. After that evening I discovered there were other reports in my area within that time frame describing similar viewings. Something's going down man! A true mind blower!

Watched a triangle form and then lights sped away in the opposite direction from each other. Then lights came very quickly following each other and they flashed very brightly and then would disappear. More and more came. Couldn't be planes or satellites. Then the lights would pulsate and disappear and reappear and pulsate again.
