As reported

Cylinder over Ambridge, PA

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

It was just a line that was very high up it moved north to south over the sky. It wasn't a shooting star with a fast flash point and trail. It moved I don't want to say slowly but at an even pace. There were no lights or sound. It stayed the same color the whole time moved in a straight line. It wasn't a satellite, I know what those look like. There were numerous satellites in the sky around that time but this was a straight line not a dot like the satellites. [NUFORC annotation: Starlink - Possible]

Ambridge, PA

I was with my friend in the backyard looking at the sky one of our favorite things to do. We saw what looked like a plane towing another plane but was connected. We thought maybe it was a blimp but I dont know why there would be a blimp near where I live and it would have been on the news. It was very big and kinda low to the ground and made no sound. There were lights on the front and back. The shape was a chevron but connected.
