The report, as filed
It was a little after one in the morning 9/19/15. I went to take the dog out and I look up and looks like bunches of stars more then I ever seen in the sky. Then I seen some move slowly and take off really fast but not go far. So I called my wife from in the house and she looks at them and some would move or looked like they was swaying or spinning but there was no noise and we watched for over a hour getting attacked by mosquitos just wanted to watch bc it was so amazing and its like they knew we was watching them

We had bad storms yesterday afternoon/evening. I walked outside to head out to the grocery store and called my husband out to look at the rainbow that came out. As we’re looking at the rainbow we saw a glowing white streak going across the sky. At first we thought it was a plane but it was going way too fast to be a regular airplane. So I took a photo with my phone. I couldn’t get my video on quick enough but the photo I have is a live photo from my iPhone. When I zoom in and play it, it’s definitely not an airplane. It’s a bright white cylinder shape and if you look carefully, it looks almost like a gyroscope. Lasted about 30 seconds and just disappeared.

The sighting began with a lit cloud that eventually expanded into a large ring in the sky. From the ring came an object that resembled a star. As the object flew across the sky, it appeared to emit clouds on a regular basis before disappearing behind trees.

I went out to have a smoke at around 4:30 AM. I do this often, and am always looking up for shooting stars, satellites, etc. I saw a slightly yellowish/white light in the Western sky flash dimly then go out. I kept watching the same area of the sky, and several seconds later, the light appeared again, but about 5 times as bright, and the light stayed on for at least 3 seconds, and had moved some distance toward the east. It then flashed dimly several seconds later, then again dimly, then very brightly and for a longer duration. There was no rhythm to this flashing at all, it was very random, and definitely was not a plane. I’ve seen many satellites, and this was very different. For one, it was much slower, and secondly, on a strange west to east path, thirdly, satellites don’t flash. The strangest thing though, I went out the very next night, and saw the exact same object, same trajectory, only slightly further south in the sky. I don’t know what it was, but it was definitely unidentified by this long time sky watcher.

While driving south on I-85, I saw a bright light fall from the sky to my left (south). It was the about the same brightness as a helicopter running light. It went down behind the tree and I really expected to see an explosion and fire, but nothing. Maybe this was a meteor?

I was outside talking to my wife when I noticed a very bright light in the sky to the West. I pointed it out to my wife and she noticed immediately it was not moving. It Sat in the same spot for 15 minutes. I went to get our binoculars and could see it was changing from white, blue, green, orange, red. We called the neighbors and they came out to see it also.
