2019-09-21 - Hau’ula, HI - Light

My wife and neighbors wife were in our driveway when I was called outside as they observed two moving stars running parallel with each other headed east. I then observed about a minute later a single star light moving north then my wife and neighbor saw two moving east again but cannot tell if these are same two lights turning around as they fly pretty straight and out of our view.

I then observed a single star light moving northward. These “ star lights “ were white in color and left no trail of any kind in its wake. It’s speed were consistent, silent with no blinking lights indicating aircraft.

I am a former FAA aircraft inspector and recently retired welding inspector with decades of observation experience. This isn’t the first time I’ve noticed things in the night sky but tonight was the longest duration and the amount of objects left me wondering. I know satellites cruise along but usually one at a time and that’s it, not seemingly making loops around th! e sky but still very cool.
