Lights look to be flashing in straight line evenly spaced going northeast

December 21, 2019 · 6:30 PM · FORMATION

Tonight, at approximately 1830 on December 21, 2019, we were walking across a parking lot at the Grand Canyon Inn in the town of Valle, north of Williams, Arizona. We looked up and saw what we thought was a satellite moving from west to east. Then we noticed another one behind it which we thought was odd. We kept watching and counted 14+ of these same objects, each with a steady non-flashing whitish light, evenly spaced and flying in a line behind each other. On the form above, I called it a formation since the dots of light were all flying in a line. LWe have no idea what to think of them. Any ideas?

Gloucester City, NJ

I’m posting this because NOBODY on the internet, YouTube or even Snapchat stories in my area are NOT posting about what we saw and it’s driving my nuts. So I’m in the barbershop last night getting a cut. Halfway into it some barbers outside on their smoke break burst in the door yelling “Yo come out and look at the sky bro!!” So I’m in the chair with the smock on and I look in the sky and right over philly (philly is five miles from me just over the bridge) were these red lights floating out of the city. THEY WERE NOT DRONES. DRONES DONT FLY AS HIGH AS THESE WERE GOING. These bright red lights floated one by one into the highest point in the sky PASS THE CLOUDS. One by one they floated out of philly until there was about 25-30 of them hanging in the sky. THEN THESE LIGHTS FORMED A TRIANGLE AND DISAPPEARED!!!!! NOT A DRONE. People in other establishments in the area were outside recording on their phones and pedestrians stopped to stare and even cars on the r! oad stopped to stare..... YET NO ONE IS CONCERNED ABOUT THIS BUT ME. LIKE EVERYONE HAS PLAYED BLIND TO IT, MAN THAT WAS SCARY AND I CANT LET THAT GO. SOMEONE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME YOU LIVE IN THE AREA AND SAW WHAT WE SAW.

Milo, IA

My wife and I were driving home from dinner last night and saw orange lights in the sky. There were three lights in a triangular formation flying NNE at typical small aircraft speed. The formation did not change as the lights moved across the sky. Once the three were out of sight or turned east and lights were not visible, three more flew along the same flight path one at a time and disappeared at roughly the same point. There was no noticeable sound associated with the fly over.

Chattaroy, WV

8 lights arranging in a circular shape with one circle in the center. The 8 lights appeared to move inward and outward of the center light the same way that it would look to see a humans lungs expanding. Some of the lights would disappear as I watched. The lowest number of lights I seen including the center light, which remained constant, were 5. If looking at the face of the clock it would have been at 2:00 positioning from Orion‘s belt. I went in my home and after 10 minutes went back out to find it. It was farther away and now at what seemed like a 3:00 position. I’m not sure exactly what i had seen but I can honestly say that in all my nights looking at the sky I’ve never seen anything like this.

Comanche, TX

I was going to church Wednesday evening 12/18/2019 and it was 6:57 p.m. I hit a stop sign where i was going to turn a left. When i looked to the left i looked up to the sky and seen yellow lights, about five of them connected to each other. They were so close to each other they looked like 5 little bulbs of christmas lights. I looked back down because there was a tree beside them, so in my mind i thought they were actually christmas lights, but when i looked up again i realized they weren’t because that tree wasn’t decorated. Plus that tree was very tall and its not the kind of tree people hang lights on. The lights were at the very top beside the tree. I turned left and looked up again to keep track of them but they disappeared. All this happened in a span of a minute. I told my girlfriend about them but we never saw them again. There was also a few planes in the sky, kind of close to the object/objects( i don’t know if it was one object with five lights) b! ut not to close. My girlfriend did tell me that she had seen on facebook that someone had also posted seeing ufo’s the day before in around this area I believe.

DIA, CO

Saw lights in cicle formation over DIA airport, some dashing across the sky really fast. Some in pairs. But all coming to and from a central light circle formation.

Loganville, GA

AboThe craft looked like 3 different color lights arranged in a triangle pattern with 1 light on each corner. Saw about 15 of them flying over a feild. Moved like drones but no drone operators were visable. One came right over us and hovered very close (50 or so feet above). Another was seen having it's light become very bright for a moment and then returning to normal. None of them made any noise.

phoenix, AZ

I saw the first light as it came into view in the N.N.E sky . It was a light ,I thought it may have been the ISS. I have witnessed this before , Usually I would watch the light pass over until it vanished in the SSE sky , then go inside to the computer to check my sighting . This morning however the lights kept on coming . They were spaced apart and formed a line . I thought maybe satellites or possible commercial flight path but they kept on coming . I then thought military but they kept on coming . There were two instances when there were two lights moving parallel with each other . they all were moving in a perfect line perfectly spaced . I counted at least 30 .

Wellington, CO

Saw what I thought was a satellite entering from North West and headed South East then turned south. Then another and ended up being 30 in a line spaced evenly except one very close to the one in front of it and then at the 20 count one came in from the North and joined.

Monterey, TN

At approximately 5:30 am on 12/11/19 I saw 9 “lights” travelling from NW to SE. The lights were of equal distance from each other and travelling at equal speeds. 8 lights in a row with the 9th light slightly offset between the 7th and 8th light. See dots below. . . . . . . . .

White Oak, MD

Was driving down south on a 3-lane highway around 5 in the afternoon when I noticed 5 dark triangular shapes in the sky moving slowly in a V formation plus 2 separate triangles directly in front of the 5. The other 2 were side by side. All were headed west. I instinctively slowed down and I noticed another car to my left did the same thing. The other driver was also looking at the triangles in the sky. After about 3 minutes, the triangles stopped moving and then seemed to disappear one by one, until they were all gone. I turned to look at the other driver and we looked at each other and we both made the same puzzled gesture. The objects did not look like any aircraft that I've seen before. They did not emit any lights.

Hudson, CO

While opening my gate this morning I happened to look up and see what looked like a perfect row of stars. Except this was spread out perfectly and moving from NW to SE in what seemed to be an endless line. I stared for approximately 1 minute thinking I wasn't fully awake. Finally, I ran in and woke my wife to verify what I was really seeing. She couldn't believe it either but it was happening. Counted 21 by at that time and I told her I watched for about a minute before even running to get her. I estimated about 20 before she was able to get out to see.

Lincoln City, OR

Approximately 5:30 in the eastern sky, I noticed what appeared to be 4 bright stars in a line move in downward motion from near the handle of the Big Dipper. As I watched them descend into horizon, several more appeared and continue to follow the same trajectory as the first 4. It was like they just appeared out of nowhere. I counted about 14, but there may have been more. I am guessing it was a satellite release, but do they release that many? How often do these satellite releases happen?

WASHINGTON, PA

While standing on my deck this evening I noticed what looked to be a flock of 4 glowing birds. I quickly realized they weren't birds as they were too easily visible at this time of night. They appeared almost out of nowhere, were moving low-ish in the sky, fast and silent. Each of the craft looked independent of the others but moved at pace as if connected. They looked like birds that were well lit from below, but didn't move like birds and being dark; not enough light to light them up. They were a light reddish color and moved in a general north to south direction. They disappeared over my neighbors roof and I lost sight. I walked over to look south and didn't see them anymore. They may have banked east, or disappeared, at that point. At first, I thought it could be a meteor shower, but nothing looked aflame and it came in flat, not at a downward angle. They also surprised me being silent and appearing out of nowhere.

Hi a trail of Ufo's seen under the moon in a strait line formation as far as the eye could see, it started at 9.50 pm and finished at 10.15 pm over South Australia night sky, lasted for approx. 20 minutes one after another, all looked like a train of pearls covering the sky in a row all the same space apart, all yellow lights, not in our air space, They were as high as satellites, What we're they? was it space X.

Saw in a very long line going east, about 25 objects. They were traveling at almost the same pace. They appear to be lit up.

Westerville, OH

Approximately 5:50 a.m. I saw a string of lights moving in a straight line to the northeast over Westerville, Ohio, not far from Johnstown. My first sighting was a pair of lights in close formation moving at a pace consistent with a high-flying aircraft. The lights were white and steady. A third light appeared approximately 5-10 degrees behind the initial pair, moving at the same rate and in the same direction. For the next ten minutes, lights appeared in the same spot in the sky, at a point midway between the Big Dipper and the pole star. Most of the lights were in the same straight line, evenly spaced, but occasionally another pair would appear instead of a single light. This continued for a total of 5 to 10 minutes, ending shortly before 6 a.m. I didn't count the lights, but there were at least 20 and perhaps as many as 30. At the same time I saw other aircraft in the sky, in different locations, all blinking lights, from which I heard engine sound, but t! he string of lights moving to the northeast were silent.
