Orange County, California- My Dad and I were driving home around 11:30 pm. Suddenly, he said, “Look up and tell me what you see.” As I was searching the sky, he swerved into a parking lot to get a better look and my dad looked for them again, but they were gone.

He saw about six bright, red-orange, circular lights grouped together but not in any particular pattern. They were bigger than stars. My dad is a pilot and is constantly looking up, instinctively searching for planes and observing what the weather is like, so of course, it was not unusual for him to be seeing the sky. Shortly after the sighting we went to report it and discovered the very recent other sightings of lights with the exact same description, many in Southern California. First time is chance, second is a coincidence, but over 210 sightings is a pattern. Weird.
