Location: North Topsail Beach, NC, USA
Location details: On the beach eastern sky

Shape: Cylinder
Characteristics: Lights on object

Large and easily seen in vertical position covered on white lights like dots

The vertical object was plainly visible yet my phone was unable to pick it up. It was difficult to judge the distance, it appeared to be moving down and away from me, I say away because it became smaller and smaller. It was so shocking to see because it was so visible and bright, no clouds or anything obscuring my line of sight. My first thought was it is moving down towards the ocean but then realized as it got smaller that it was moving east, away from me. The light had a white look and were in an organized dotted pattern. My first thought was of an LED type glow.
