4-5 orbs of light seen and filmed moving and brightening in sky
At 8:50ish I noticed some orbs of light on the horizon that appeared to move in a strange manner. I watched for a moment, and realized they were not blinking, and thus had no navigation lights. At that point I began to film in my iPhone. The orbs can be seen mainly in the right center of the screen. They move relatively slowly, but seem to increase in brightness, before going completely dark. I noticed them moving from below the horizon, straight up into the sky, as well as horizontally. I could only keep track of a specific orb until it went dark and then I could not see it anymore, this is why my count may be incorrect. I have watched satellites and planes from this second story window and they always had consistent flight paths and/or navigation lights. Not the most provocative story, but they were there for approximately a half hour, and I showed the video to family and friends and no one has a decent explanation, other than a private drone flight(s).
NUFORC Note:
Possibly satellite flares
