West Covina, CA

Several white and red lights surrounded the moon at about 4:45 PM over Wesco vina California the red lights dim down and the white lights creative formation around the moon. First in triangular shape then joining in couples of 2 inch triangular shape triangular shape then moved in uniform together away from one and a cigar shaped ship moved across the face of the earth. The withe lites following at a high rated speed and disappearing while moving the direction of west in the sky. I then went and turned on the news station on the television and waited to hear if there was any sightings or news about what I had just seen at the same time there was seismic activity earthquake in Temecula. I captured several photos of the formation and one video

Blaine Lake (Canada), SK · Canada

At 6:55 AM I was locking my driveway gate when a moving “star” caught my attention. I looked up expecting to see a shooting star, when in fact it was many star looking lights moving at the same pace in a straight line Eastward, all evenly spaced apart and appearing lower than the stars. At the Westward end of the line were more lights merging in line with the existing formation, like cars on a freeway (this was directly above me, no highway interference). The formation moved with absolutely no sound at all. It continued moving across the sky until I could no longer see it on the horizon. The sun rose approximately an hour later.

North Andover, MA

I was sitting on top of my friends truck with about 20 kids. We just got ice cream and we’re enjoying the stars. Suddenly I noticed 5 stars in a pentagon formation moving together in perfect alignment. Never broke formation. Never stopped. Looked like stars but they moved very fast and it was clear they were smaller and inside the earths atmosphere. I yelled to my friends and they saw it as well.

Centennial, CO

We were sitting in our hot tub on the evening of 1/19/2020. It was just past 9:00 PM MST (we know this because we had just finished watching TV) Our tub is on the north side of the house and we have an unobstructed view directly overhead and to the east. The sky was completely clear with no moon or clouds. My wife suddenly exclaimed "What is that!" and pointed E-N/E. She continued to point at it and said: "It went behind the trees." I didn't see it, but she described it as "v" formation of light objects. We continued discussing the event postulating what it might be. Then, 15 minutes later (I checked my watch afterward to verify), I saw something directly overhead and pointed it out to her. She remarked that it was the exact same thing she saw earlier. We watched it fly rapidly from overhead to the E-N/E where it vanished behind the trees. What I was a formation of 25-30 light gray objects in a nearly perfect, but 'flattened', 'v' shape. They were not illuminated but were distinct in the night sky. Each object looked roughly square in shape and they were spaced very closely together with even distance. The formation was completely silent as it went overhead. The formation passed overhead and over the horizon in approximately 5 seconds. The width in the sky was approximately the same as my hand extended at full reach. (I would be happy to submit daylight photos of the location if it would be helpful) I ran inside to get my camera and we spent the next 20 minutes waiting for another pass but never saw anything else. During that period we observed several standard airplanes flying their usual routes. An airplane (at altitude) was the same size or smaller than each of the objects in the formation and traveled much slower. We could clearly hear the airplane's engines.

Alburgh, VT

I saw a string of double lights more than 50 moving upward through the sky. They all moved in uniform and at the same speed and there was no noise associated with this event. As they went up they curved and then they started to disappear as they got further up in altitude. I tried to take pix with my cell phone but my pix turned out black.

Big Horn Mountains, WY

A line of slow moving lighted objects flew in a straight line over the big horn mountains towards a red star. Once to that point they all seems to combine together into one or flew into a carrier and disappeared.

Newton, KS

Went out to get fire wood,and i always look up just to see the stars.Several stars were moving quickly over my head,i stopped,put the wood down,and continued watching at that time the count was-15-Moving very stead fast and in line perfectly!I then ran in the house,told my wife,grabbed my camera,ran back out turning my camera on,and continued watching at least another 10-or so moving in the same exact fashion in line,perfectly spaced apart-Coming from the south west,moving in line,towards the North East.This happened within 60-seconds or so,no flashing lights,no sound,looking just like a star in the sky-Whew!!!-Tuesday-6:35-pm-6:45-pm-1/15/20-

Dunkerton, IA

There was a straight formation of at least 20 aircraft Very high in the atmosphere All disappearing at the same point. There were several airplanes in the area as well that we're much slower and at a lower altitude The sky was crystal clear.

Rector, AR

Observed at least 25 or more dimly lit craft at a great range out. Multiple people were around and observed this. The craft were evenly spaced out in a line stretching nearly from horizon to horizon. They were perfectly spaced out and traveling at the same great speeds in formation. The flight came out of the South West and was headed north east. I am curious if this was the Starlink Satellites or not?

Porterville, CA

I was looking at the stars with my telescope when all of a sudden these stars start moving, I though my eyes were just playing tricks on me so I called my sister out to come and look. And she saw them to, these “stars” were in a perfectly straight line and there would be about five of them and then there would be a tiny gap as well just like this ( . . . . . . . . . . ) and I have no idea what it is, and I have also seen things like this in my town to.

Maxwell, CA

My wife and I were standing outside, smoking. I looked out to the Western night sky of California and noticed two rather dim lights, one following the other going Northeast. At first I thought one was a satellite but then when I saw the second one I thought maybe they were planes flying behind each other as I've seen many other times. Suddenly I noticed three more far behind it and you can see the distance between them, they seemed as though they were in Earth as I can see the distance between them and their formation. The first two lights suddenly would disappear after a certain distance, then the next three lights in the fleet wood fly on their path and disappear where the other two had also disappeared. Then two more fleets of these three lights what fly along their path and disappear where they all would eventually disappear. They seemed very distant and they did not have blinking lights as planes and helicopters do. I could also not hear any sound of an! engine, and they were also very dim. My wife and I were very confused by this as it seemed very unusual and no reason to believe they were planes or helicopters I stay completely disappeared after a certain point in their path not to mention this was a fleet of about 8 to 10 of these lights. We live and the northern Central Valley of California and spotted it is towards the west of California possibly out towards the coast.

Aurora, CO

Objects looking like stars were flying in a straight line in the distance. They all traveled the same speed with the same distance to each other and getting a little brighter at first when they getting closer, disappearing above one by one by one.

Grand Junction, CO

Wife and I were outside stargazing for a short bit before the cold snuck in. It's a clear a night and we live on one of the highest points of the town. Stars were bright, you could see aircraft, and satellites. The wife looking Southwest, spotted a line formation of single lights that followed each other in equal distances. They did not break their trail. This all lasted maybe 15 seconds before they all vanished at one particular point in the sky, one after the other in perfect timing. The only thing I can think of what they could be would be drones, but for the purpose and time of the event, I'm not sure why they would be in our town. Or how they'd vanish, all at one specific spot in "space". The wife claims the "Line" of lights eccentrically trailed a larger circular mass, although nothing was spotted hosting the lights in a concrete position. Upon my own perception, they seemed to follow a single linear path. To my other; they trailed circular, but on a large circumference moving forward in a single linear path before disappearing at a certain point. Any leads would be great...

Many Farms, AZ

Returning home we witnessed numerous lights/orbs in the sky sailing/flying from the southwest direction towards the northeast direction. Numerous meaning that there were too many to give an exact count but there was well over forty of them. They looked as they were Xmas lights strung in the sky being pulled across the heavens in which no noise was heard nor emitted, neither were FAA strobe lights visible. From what could be seen was an endless line that faded out to the NE sky. Video via a handheld NV camera was taken but as they were directly above us, I could not keep the camera steady(the convoy of lights were directly above us and with the excitement it was hard to keep still) but in the video they are white orb type anomalies that just keep sailing thru the sky. No clouds were in the vicinity nor were any other commercial craft visible as it usually would be.

Saint Augustine, FL

While walking outside to my barn I looked up into a clear starry sky trying to see satellites as we normally do on a clear evening, there is little light pollution where we live. I saw two satellites immediately but they were in a straight line formation. On a South-Southwest to North-Northeast trajectory passing at about 75 to 80 degrees overhead. Soon after there were two more in a straight formation. I ran back inside and grabbed my cell phone to video them. When I came back out the first two satellites were cover by clouds and the second two were still visible. Then the fifth and sixth appeared on the same line but spaced further back, then number seven which was trailing slightly. I have never saw a formation like this and tried to debunk it thinking it was the SpaceX train passing over but from all the research I can find they are not readily visible from my location. They were very bright and high as a airliner flew below them. travelling in a strai! ght line. I do not believe they were alien but unexplained, for now, yes. I would like to think someone has seen the same thing as they were very bright. Brighter than any satellites I have observed. Military aircraft do occasionally fly in the area but they are usually helicopters doing night training from NAS Jacksonville. I videoed the satellites but of course it is pitch black.... not sure how to edit it to see if I can get them visible. please email back to verify if it was spacex or other Satellites that travel in a straight line formation and appear very bright in the night sky.

String of 20 lights in formation in groups of 3 moving west to east at high speed high in sky. Thought I was seeing international space satellite, but lights just kept appearing disappearing in cloudy night.
