Four nights ago we saw six flickering orange lights in groups of three that slowly moved across the sky in the Seattle area, north to south, and then, after several minutes, dimmed out, followed by flashes in the sky that can only be described as someone controlling a bright star by flicking a light switch on and immediately off.
I used a binocular to focus on one of the lights and, honestly, it could have been a hot air balloon. However, it was the dead of night and all of the lights stayed on to a certain point and then winked out at that same point, and after being on for several minutes. I don’t think that’s how Hot Air balloons work. I also don’t think they have that much fuel.
But their movement mimmicked them.
And maybe the flashes were people on the balloons usin flash cameras pointing to the ground.
i.e. maybe it was an attempt to create a UFO hoax.
Any thoughts?
Though it doesn’t explain the flashes, it looks like it was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=78&v=zqf8E2-WKoM

* I believe that people DO see UFO’s as explained by
one very smart poster in this thread , , I forgot
his name but he pointed out that the UFO’s were:
{1} spotted by humans
{2} flying

Presto! We have UFO’s
* On this definition there ARE , , IN FACT, , UFO’s
* I hope one day to be kidnapped by aliens.
* I want to go to their Home Planet.
* I want to meet their Leaders. , , LOL , , ,

* That’d be not good.
* I found your story very interesting.
* Thanks.

Years ago I saw those over Seattle on July 4th. Pretty interesting if one is thinking about UFO’s. A bit of research and the Asians (Seattle full of them as you know) use these sky lanterns quite a bit on holidays.
