Location: Cornelius, NC, USA
Location details: Home behind house looking at moon using telescope with iPhone attached

Shape: Unknown

I was testing out the new telescope we got for Christmas, using the attach your phone feature. Upon review of the video we saw a ufo

My family was testing out our new telescope and had attached my iPhone to the lens to see how videos through this relatively inexpensive telescope would turn out. As I was recording one part of the video, I would tap the screen to focus on the moon. As it was focusing on the moon, which we only noticed upon review of the video, an object appears to materialize out of thin air and travel quickly across the screen. Since my focal point was the moon, the object had to be near the moon and moving very fast and likely very large, for me to be able to pick it up. Upon zooming in, it almost looks like a bullet hole when you see those slow motion videos shooting through something. I checked the box below to be contacted, but just wanted to say if you have questions or if you can explain what it is, I’d love to hear it, but you don’t have to contact me if you don’t need to. Just wouldn’t want to waste anyone’s time as it’s not a lot of evidence but we have always thought it was compelling… thanks!
