*Update* 2 UFOs Spotted Fri 9/16/22 @8:30PM Over Wrightsville Beach, NC

*UPDATED REPORT*
I live in Wilmington, NC. I'm a Music Producer and my wife works as a teacher. Friday night, my wife and I drove out to Wrightsville Beach for some romantic stargazing. But, at 8:30 PM, we were surprised to spot 2 UFOs. The first craft emitted a bright white light, was too wide to be a star, and was like a mechanical wagon wheel in appearance. In the video it appears to have a forcefield around it. It flew left, then right, but mainly hovered in place about a mile in the air over the Atlantic Ocean.
The second craft was a red sphere about 300 feet in the air, which morphed shape, and changed flashing colors between red, white, yellow, and green. After a few minutes, the second craft zoomed past us to our left, heading westward down the coast at about 3,000 mph. We ascertained this speed and measurements based off of the position of the crafts, in relation to the stationary stars, per the number of seconds it took for it to vanish over the horizon.
We called the US FAA, that Friday night and left a message. Monday afternoon 9/19/22, James at the airtraffic control tower called us back. When we asked him if there were any commercial or government aircraft flying over Wrightsville Beach that night around 8:30 PM, he said there were not any commercial or government flights scheduled for that Beach area. When we asked him what he thought it was, he replied he didn't know, because drones cannot reach speeds of 3,000 mph. We zoom edited the original photos & videos together into an attached YouTube video.
