The report, as filed

I witnessed a UFO two days in a row, one being on the night of 9/23/2020 and the following night of 9/24/2020. The first night I was walking out of the woods after a day of hunting and met up with my father. By this time it was around 7:30pm EST. We both witnessed a VERY bright light moving in the sky. At first I thought it was a satellite but it was much too low, big, and bright to be. It was lower than a plane would be and we watched as it smoothly flew across the sky with 0 noise at all. It didn’t disappear until it got beyond the tree line. The following night we were both in the same spot around the same time at night and it was pitch black. As my father and I were talking I looked up and saw yet again a VERY BIG and BRIGHT light right above my head. It hovered there for a second or two and then the light got dim all the way down to the size of a star and started moving like a satellite would. But it was at a complete stop before it started moving. I al! so saw a ufo last year and have a video of it flying through the sky.

I set up my Iphone 13 on that night to see if I could capture any meteors from the Lydird meteor shower happening around Then. As you can see in the vid the object starts out from the bottom right hand corner and goes from right to left. The thing that intrigued me is that the video was on slomo so If I had looked up I doubt that I would have even seen it. It was moving very fast in slomo. If I thought it was a meteor, or satellite, plane whatever I wouldn't bother. But when I zoomed in it looked like the letter M and was white with dark lines on it and the vid shows it appears to change directions. I doubt it's ET from the mother ship. It probably is a plane or something we do live in the flight path for Westover Air Force base and Bradley Airport. But it was going in the wrong direction and must have been moving really fast, if the slomo was fast itself.
