Looking up I saw a really bright orb (brighter than stars)moving slow and steady across the skyline about airline altitude but noticed no noise , no flashing lights like a airplane would have at nite , so I called her out and we both just looked at it while scanning the sky we could see to the north airplanes with lights flashing on their usual routes,we could see this thing gliding across the sky in a route that planes don’t fly near our house was as quick as u turn your head it was gone just kinda went a little dimmer light and object got long thin and vanished within seconds!!

Saw very bright lights coming toward us, looked different then planes or helicopters, which we see all the time, completely silent, had triangle shape, mostly noticeable because lights were on the 3 corners. When it got relatively close to us, the lights seem to pull together and it then disappeared right in front of us.

I was heading west on I 80 passing the exit for Bloomsburg. It was overcast and misty. During the sunrise the clouds had a bluish pink hue. Above the highway stretching across the valley, about 80 to 100 glowing yellow/orange balls lit up, and disappeared. I coukd tell they were in the clouds as the glowing orbs cast a glow around them through the clouds. No paticular formation. Random pattern. All lit up at once.

We all looked up at the 'star' and it turned out to be this big, long string of lights that was moving very rapidly. We watched it as I drove for about 3 minutes and then all 5 of us suddenly lost sight of it. The craft was very long and looked like a string of Christmas lights, moving perfectly straight through the sky.

Circle or saucer, 200-300 ft up in the air, stationary hovering no movement. 3 large royal blue lights curved to fit the saucer. Bigger than a helicopter smaller than an airplane. Spotted at approximately 9:30 pm in Bloomsburg, PA, over gas station by the Columbia County Jail. The encounter was less than a minute but once we circled back around to find the hovering un-identified object it was gone. It was higher than a drone could go but was brighter than the stars. It looked like glowing led lights 300 ft up in the air. Very large!
