Saw two lights performing rapid movement ascent and sharp right turn.

The following is a description of a UAP sighting I experienced on Aug. 16, 2022 at approximately 8 P. M. PST. My husband and I were returning from a vacation on the Big Island, Hawaii. Our flight took us from Kona to Cincinnati, OH by way of Denver, CO. I was seated next to the window on the port side of the airplane, so I was looking north. The sun had set, and there was very little residual color left in the sky. I am guessing we were about a hundred miles west of the California coastline, so we had flown approximately 2200 miles of our trip.

I saw a ball-shaped light larger than a star but smaller than the full moon. It was as bright as a car headlight as seen a mile away. It ascended rapidly, no pause, then made a sharp, ninety-degree turn to the right, proceeded a distance and vanished. Another object of similar description joined the first object and repeated the maneuver. This was repeated several times. The two objects did these motions together. Each maneuver lasted 1-2 sec. There was a rest time of 5-6 sec at the end of the maneuver and then it started again. These objects were too far away for me to detect any details. They were extremely bright of a whitish-yellow color. Also, the horizon was very indistinct as low clouds were concealing it; therefore, I could not tell if the objects were emerging from land or from water.

I do not think any conventional aircraft could make such maneuvers, nor do I believe these were some sort of balloon or flares. The only conclusion was that they were UAPs.

Interesting to note, but completely subjective, of course, I felt an immediate mental connection to the craft which was totally unanticipated. It was as though we were on the same “wavelength.” I felt I had to govern my mental state so as not to draw the UAPs to the airplane.
