Formation over Halifax (Canada), NS · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
three bright red lights in a row hovering over the city of halifax on the night of September 7th and then again on the 8th. Both between the hours of 9pm-11:30pm. Still currently watching it now at 10:28pm Sept 8th. Yesterday it was over one part of the city and this night it started a little farther to the left of where it was last night, but then slowly moved back and rotated a bit. When I took photos and videos to nignt the image showed almost a beam or something coming from the object down on to the city

I am an apprentice aircraft maintenance engineer. Tonight two red orbs flew over my home. I was going outside for a cigarette and witnessed them fly northeast over my home. I then ran inside to grab my phone but was unable to get in time to get any footage. I ran to the street in front of my home to see them far in the distance down the street, the orbs now heading south west. One orb faded while the other seemed to hover for a while, fading after around 20 seconds. I work on commercial aircraft almost every day, I saw no machine just two orbs of red light. It is a surprisingly clear night here in Halifax, so I have no reference to size or altitude. They approached very quickly and were too far to film in the 20 seconds it took to get my camera.

There was no audible sound, the sky was very clear, the object moved slower than what a plane would need to keep airborne. I do have a photo….it was taken with a Nikon D700 with a 24-120 lens - the image was at full zoom. I wish I would have gotten the when it was above. Normal air traffic flies over Halifax on a dedicated NE route. This object was flying in an unusual direction. It was heading 80 degrees east from my position.

It was just about twilight hour, however not dark enough to see any stars yet. I was walking on Bayer’s road near Joseph Howe when I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. I looked up to see a small bright red light in the sky. It was stationary and was surrounded by a larger bright blue/purplish ring. It almost appeared like a halo around the smaller light. Both light sources were constant and not blinking. It stood still and made no noise. After about a minute it started to move very slowly in an almost fluid motion that didn’t have any real pattern. It started going left then turned around and went right, then up and down and then spun around in almost a circle. At certain moments between changing directions it would stay stationary for a few seconds. As it started to go right one last time, the halo disappeared and the light turned to blue before it faded and disappeared. Then very quickly it appeared once as a bright red light with the halo bef! ore it blinked and disappeared. I stayed around for a few minutes and walked around but didn’t see it again. The entire experience lasted about 2-3 minutes. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

The 3rd object stayed NW of my location and didn't move untill the 2nd object that was shooting across looked like it changed direction to what I can only explain in the 3d sence that it started to move out, not up or down but out as if it was heading off our planet I can't explain more then that but I so have 2 pictures that really don't do any justice to my experience I hope someone else saw this incredible phenomenon
