2 stationary flashing side by side very bright white lights

While eating dinner with guests about 7:00 pm on October 20, 2017, I happened to look out our sliding glass door which faces west and noticed two stationary side by side very bright flashing white lights just above the tree line slightly northwest of the house. They were quite close together and were brighter than the planet Venus would be. The object(s) were stationary and did not wobble like a drone would.

I called the 3 other people in attendance and they all saw it. The sun had set and it was dark out. I went for some binoculars but by the time I returned, the lights had moved northish and out of view. No noise was heard.

From our house, the object(s) appeared to be over the western part of Aviation Road in Queensbury, NY.

A week later (10-27-2017), I was sharing this event with a friend and coincidently both he and his wife may have seen the same object while they were driving in their car about 7:15 pm. He reported it also as 2 stationary side by side very bright white lights but they were not flashing. Shortly thereafter, one light disappeared. They also said it was low in the sky. He’s not 100% sure what day it was but feels like it was the same Friday evening as was the one we saw. Also, no noise was heard.

His sighting was about 5 miles northeast of our sighting and located in the Sunnyside Road area of Queensbury, NY.

All parties involved are familiar with aircraft lighting and this object was definitely not lit up in a normal pattern.

2 red flying circles fade away and reappear

my sister and i were walking and saw these 2 flying dots/circles. they were red and moved in unison but appeared to be about 100 yards apart. the circles were slightly diagonal of each other. the first one then vanished without a warning. the last one almost followed us home but then slowly faded away. next minute the circles where on the complete opposite side of the sky. these objects were moving extremely fast and were about 200 feet up but created no noise ever.

Bright, Orange Oval-Shaped Object, Moving Northeast in Upstate New York

At 10PM, I was using my telescope to look at a bright star.

I was about to go inside when, I noticed a bright orange oval shaped object moving a little faster than most planes, across the sky.

I was able to follow the object with my telescope. With a focal length of 1000mm, the object was still orange, oval-like and shimmering.

This lasted about 3 - 4 minutes.

There were no flashing lights or a trail behind the object.

I was watching the meteor shower with my parents when all of a sudden I saw, what I thought were stars, spin around each other probably three times. Then they moved in opposite directions and stayed there for the rest of the evening. I thought that I had hallucinated, but the next evening they weren't there.

Has any one else seen anything similar?

Shape: Fireball


Giganticly huge glowing object. Very high in the sky, moving at high speed. Observed in night sky.

Decided to take a late night trip trip to the local WalMart for some last minute holiday shopping. We were driving East on Potter Road when we (my 19 year old daughter and I) noticed somethng bright orangish-red high in the sky above us moving South.

It had an irregular shape at first which made it diffiult to conclude what it was. It reminded me of a windsock. Wide on one end and a tail like wavy thing on the other end. It seemed to glow from within and it was huge and high. Much too large and high to be a wind sock.

We took a right onto Aviation Road (traveling East)and saw it again briefly. But it's shape had changed. We lost it and saw it again just past the I-87 overpass.

What we saw was remarkable. This HUGE ROUND GLOWING thing that seemed to be moving away at a remarkable speed. It looked like something was partially covering it, maybe clouds. But the thing was so enormous my daughter remarked it looked like a planet exploding. We were completely freaked out and in awe. We knew this wasn't natural. We attempted to follow it, but it was moving away at such a high speed and it just suddenly disappeared.

his was the most remarkable thing I have ever experienced!!!! HUGE object, very HIGH in the SKY, moving at HIGH SPEED. Glowing from inside like a fireball reddish-orange in color.

Called the Sheriff's Department to see if anyone else reported anything (nope).

Strange purple light seen in night sky moving erratically

This event happened at least three years ago on the 4th of July in an empty baseball/soccer field between 10pm and midnight. I was about 19 at the time, and the other witness with me was about 24. I distinctly remember it being the 4th of July because we had heard firecrackers and fireworks going off all night however I noted to myself that we saw no lights from the fireworks at all and only heard the noises very far off. The night was perfectly clear and the baseball field had no lights so the night sky and stars were very bright and easy to see, there was no moon that I can recall.

We were lying on our backs watching the stars, comets, satellites and planes for about an hour and during that hour a small pinprick of purple light became visible almost directly above us. It was bright enough to easily track and very obviously purple colored. At first it was the size of a star and almost unnoticeable among all the stars in the sky, however it grew slightly bigger after a few minutes (probably as large or larger as the north star on a good night, with a slight purple glow around it making it just that much larger than the stars, however not quite as bright) and flew around in a somewhat erratic manner. It only moved a matter of inches across the sky from my perspective though obviously it must have traveled much further since it was so far away- though I have no idea if it was within the atmosphere or much further out. It was traveling very fast considering we had been watching satellites go by that night and they are extremely sluggish compared to this lig! ht. The pattern of its movement were strange and all I can really remember from that night is that it seemed to zig and zag around at random the entire time we saw it, sometimes stopping to hang for a few minutes before moving again, it’s size and color/brightness waxing and waning slightly without pattern. It only moved within a small quadrant of the sky, almost like it was circling something. A reference for its speed I had in my mind at that time was that if a plane was at that height and moving across the sky at a steady speed, the purple light would be moving double that speed- not exactly zipping around but still much faster than a plane. Because we were on our backs and it was almost directly over us it looked like it must have been out among the stars, however at a different angle it might have been within the atmosphere and much closer than what we thought. After staring at it for about 15 minutes it simply flew/faded away (with a little bit of a tail like a tiny c! omet) and nothing else happened in the sky that night.
