At around 3:00, I saw the ISS move across the sky, so I am confident it was not merely any satellite. Many different low brightness blinking UFOS, sometimes emitting pulses of spread light. Movement was erratic, non-linear acceleration in many of them. Could easily move from their current position to an entirely different position akin to shining a laser pointer and moving it across the sky, their velocity had no inertia insofar as I could tell. There was more than a dozen of these sighted phenomena, and each of them moved in erratic manners. Occasionally split off into more vehicles, though this type of event occurred less frequently. Extremely dim light emission, unable to be received on Android A6 smartphone camera.

I'm assuming this is explainable, but am still curious enough to report this sighting. Sunset today was at 16:55.

I was staring out my front window to the north, and a light appeared in the sky, brighter than any star I've seen, and it was flashing blue and green and red, rapidly changing colours. I thought it might be a planet, or a satellite maybe, but it was moving in weird patterns. It would move to the left, and then to the right, and then up. It continued this pattern for a couple of minutes. I'd like to note that this is nothing new. I have seen this light in the sky before, and have watched it a couple of times for hours. It's what it did next that alarmed me. The light got really bright, and then something shot off it to the west very quickly and out of sight. Then a couple of seconds later, another light shot off of it straight up. The original light then blinked out, and reappeared about two seconds later across the sky, before slowly moving to the north and out of sight. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and she sounded to us to be quite serious minded. We suspect that the report is an accurate rendition of what she had seen. PD

At 9:40pm, on December 31, 2015, four of us were sitting at the dinner table playing a board game. My husband was looking out the window and he said, "What is that?" He pointed out what he was looking at and said two of these identical objects had flown over already. The lights were inside (sic. outside?) the house, and he was sitting closest to the window, so the objects were visible beyond the reflections in the glass at night. We headed out the patio door to get a better look and in the distance we saw more of these objects. As they came into view each looked identical. There were a total of four objects that were observed outside, with a fairly large space in between. All objects were flying in single file. During this time I grabbed my cell phone off the table we were sitting at and started recording. The objects made no sound as approaching or departing our field of view. Each object emitted a white flickering light. As the last of the objects was coming into view, we all ran inside through to the front of the house to see what they were doing on the other side; all the while recording. The objects appeared to fan out in the distance and disappear from view. We approximate that the altitude of the objects is around 500 feet up and they may have been automobile sized objects, but was hard to discern as only light from the object was observed. There were no vehicle traffic sounds drowning out any sound that may have been coming from the objects. There was a dog barking in the distance and when at the front of the house there is the sound of an inflatable Christmas display on the porch. A copy of the video recorded will be mailed to your office. We have written the source of the report, requesting a copy of the video she alludes to in the report. PD
