I like how aliens might be real but no one cares anymore

THIS! Finally found exactly what I had seen here in Clarksville TN in January. I've been trying so hard to find something for reference when telling people. I never expected to find exactly how they looked and did formation. This has been so hard to explain!

This is global phenomenon. We need to figure out what these things are.

I just saw these kind of lights in Columbus, OH tonight (July 4, 2020). I have seen them 2 other times over the past few years as well. They do not move, look, or act like anything I have ever seen in the sky.

Apparently in every “caught “ footage they seem to always be in 5 !

A few minutes ago today (July 8, 2020) at around midnight I witnessed a similar phenomenon occur from Nassau Bay, TX, a suburb of Houston. In the northern sky, one bright light, white in coloration, would flash, extinguish, and flash again in a different place, for a minute or two. It moved in an irregular fashion, generally trending East but occasionally doubling back or straying from its path. It maneuvered too quickly to be an airplane, and its light was too bright to be an airplane strobe. I have no explanation for this occurrence, but I feel it may be related to the lights in this video, having been spotted from the same city and near the same time.

really hoping they’re real and ima jump on one of these space ships and hopefully finally get to leave earth.

Sad thing is we won't ever know the truth because it's always a secret

I seen those same lights 10 years ago in Afghanistan

Aliens: omg we're next. I'm nervous.
Other alien: let's show them we know how to party *turns on the wrong lights*

I'm a trucker living in Arizona and I those all the time

I've seen this in massachusetts a few years ago, they are really really weird.

[Rebeltopia]

So... I just came on to YouTube to see if there was anything that I could compare to what me and my kid's just saw on our drive home!
This is EXACTLY WHAT WE SAW!!!

We are in the Metro Detroit Area in Michigan!
Crazy!
At this point though, all that is missing from 2020 is the aliens

I have seen this twice. The first time was when I was like 8 or 9 taking a ride with my mom along the 610 loop near downtown heading up towards Oak Forest, she would tell me all about it and I too remembered it vividly, and the second time was a few months ago at a park with a friend at around 11PM. Both at night. If you just stop to look at the night sky, you can see stuff that you never thought was there. I've seen plenty of wild stuff just by looking up. But seeing this is the most vivid I have remembered it.

[treekzo]

I came straight here because my grandma seen this and now im scared because i thought this was fake...

[happydappyman]

I've seen this a few years back as well. When I saw, it was probably 5 or so lights and they were circling each other high in the sky. Looked almost exactly like this video.

[winterclevenger]

I just saw something like this in the sky of Ontario Canada just now!

[decepticonpunk]

Two days back i saw these lights, 3 of them appearing one by one in aline and eventually all disappeared at once.

[globalone]

I just saw them last night, the only difference is that they are perfectly aligned, after about 30 second they disappeared.
