Last night 29th March 2020 between 20:45 and 21:00 a string of lights equally spaced apart approximately 25-30 travelling on a northeasterly direction one, in particular, one moving extremely faster than the others who were in formation, all heading in the same direction. Our attention was first drawn to one object that was extremely bright lower altitude heading in an easterly direction. The movement of the bright dots was purposeful and in formation with equal spacing and finally a set of three shaped in a triangle. The sky was clear.

Over the course of at least 20 minutes my family and I saw at least 25 satellite-looking objects fly across the Ursa Major constellation. Initially we presumed they were typical satellites given their speed and size though considering the number of them as well as their linear path and equidistant spacing we believe they couldn’t have been average satellites. We stood outside of our home with all indoor and outdoor lights turned off for the duration of the sighting, counting a minimum of 25 of them. We also saw multiple planes flying and in comparison we determined there was no possible way they were planes of any kind.

Avondale, AZ
On back dock noticed multiple white lights appearing one at a time from North to South at approximately 10 second intervals with no sound. Each white light would brighten whiter then fade and completely disappear. My cousin and I watched this progression for at least 30 minuts.

10 lights moving across the sky flashing red green and blue. Light remained blue most the time. Appeared to move faster than a airplane. Moving SE and then disappeared.

Johnson City, TN
Noticed very small, but very distinct red light about 10° below (towards horizon) Arcturus. It made erratic movements before suddenly disappearing. About 15 seconds later, object of same size and shape appeared about 2° below Arcturus, and proceeded to move counterclockwise along a semicircular path until it disappeared.

Billings, MT
Not far behind the first light was a second light that was about 50 miles behind in the same pattern. Then others started to follow. One behind the other. I would say well over thirty. Just south of the paterned lights. The same looking lights appeared, and moved in a very unconventional way. Making circles, moving at high rates of speed, and stopping on a dime!

My boyfriend and i came outside. He said to look at the stars. I thought he was talking about the moon and the bright star beside it. It was beautiful.and he said no it's 4 stars lined up perfectly spaced out. Perpendicular to the ground.and one by one moved up and disappeared .

Garden Valley, ID
First seen a light moving but to fast to be a airplane and to slow to be a shooting star later seen a trail of about 20 following behind them in a vertical line each about 2 feet apart later seen another line of almost star like objects going the same direction after that the more attention I paid the more I seen but moving individually in different directions also there was one that flashed colors but stayed in the same spot that would move in zig zags really fast then go back to the same spot

Can anybody explain what I have just seen. at least 22 White Lights (Aeroplanes?) flying from south to North on the same flight route ( with a couple of exceptions that flew paralle to another) equally space apart. it was not normal

Rock Island, IL
You can still see him now they're still coming if you look up at the Moon until the right it looks like Venus it's the brightest light in the sky the right underneath that these lights are manifesting one after another and they're flying to the right up into outer space and it's been going on for about an hour now. They're flying slow now but they were going faster and zigzagging I saw one stop and switch directions.

Sydney (Australia · Australia
On the morning of the 28/03/2020 I was sitting across road from my place in Epping NSW when I looked up and spotted what I thought was a satellite, after three seconds in or so I looked again and there was another one and another one etc,I counted a total of 46 lights of satellite size in single file with a spacing from Earth what looked about two inches apart,as I got on the bus the lights continued to the north east of Sydney Australia for as far as I could see, we are not alone

Heading East multiple lights one after another they were going in the same direction. They had no colored lights no sound one did shoot a bright light straight out from underneath for just a few seconds. We couldn’t make out the shapes just the lights.

Billings, MT
Many of us are standing outside and at least 100+ lights have been moving West to East all throughout above Billings. Very high up in the sky and moving very fast. Some in formations, some only in a line. Too far up to video. Some have stopped and then started moving the opposite direction East to West.

Placerville, CA
I saw 40 mini bright lights, one after the other coming from west to east,and some of them were flying in pears.It look like they were docking with something. they would get to a certain point and just disappear.They were coming from the direction of Sacramento towards Placerville California. I've seen them before two at a time, But not like this.

My friend and I were sitting outside. My friend noticed a light moving across the sky and pointed it out to me. I thought it was a satellite. But withing a few seconds there was another one and then another one and so on. They all seemed to be flying in the same line. It looked as though they were flying in different lines. But very close together and very close in line as well. So much that you would certainly assume it was a group. The ones we saw first the light seemed constant. The ones to toward the end seemed to be changing. Almost blinking but it wasnt. I immediately down went online to a flight tracking site to see the air traffic above my location and the closest plane was more than 40 miles away in a different direction. And given the terrain where I live. It doesn't allow you to see that far across the horizon. When I got no where with that I then went to a site showing satellite activity above location. Again there wasn't anything above us. After thinking about it more whatever it was or is. Was at an extremely high altitude. Much higher than what passenger planes would fly at. I honestly have no explanation for it.

Island Pond, VT
Saw 15-20 or more small mildly bright objects all heading southeast from the northeast. All appeared to be the same distance apart. Sighting lasted for approximately 10-15 minutes.

I WAS GATHERING FIREWOOD AND LOOKED UP AT FIRST THOUGHT IT WAS A SHOOTING STAR. ONE LIGHT BECAME 3 LIGHTS IN A TRIANGLE FORMATION AND SHOT FROM SOUTH TO NORTH ACROSS THE SKY.

Pueblo West, CO
A line formation in Pueblo West of single 25 to 30 lights flying at an elevation estimated 80000 to 100000 feet culminated with two sets of two lights at even higher elevations of 120000 to 150000 feet. lights were turned off entering Pueblo city.

Lagrange, GA
Brother entered my room claiming to see a UFO through our tree line. Followed him outside to look and saw light high enough to not be an insect but low enough that it couldn’t be a plane. Swayed/hovered left and right just enough that we had to adjust our sight but didn’t change location. To the right. About 500 yards another did the same thing at approximate level. Went inside while it was still there.

Burley, ID
Multiple people called me to step outside to look at these flying lights headed to the East. They were in row of two and sometime in triangle group. They were quite but moved moderately through the sky.

Oromocto (Canada), NB · Canada
Just saw a succession of about 20 individual lights, appearing northward, equidistant from each other crossing the center portion of the handle of the big dipper disappearing eastward as seen from New Brunswick Canada... ISS was scheduled for 20:30 Atlantic time so not that...can we get a confirmation of what is was? With COVID-19 I fear that an invasion is not too far fetched.

Boise, ID
3 of us went outside for a smoke and I looked up and saw 2 lights that looked like stars flying side by side south to north over the veterans area of Boise. Never seeing planes flying that close and together, especially at night. Then before the first 2 were out of sight, a string of 3 that looked like Orions belt followed. Once those first 5 were out of sight, more pairs and single lights were all going the same way. South to north. All but 2. 2 were going east to west. They never changed speed or altitude. Appearing as stars. Counted 21 before going inside to go to bed. No physical changes with any of us or pur area. Just lights all marching together the same direction towards Bogus Basin
