My husband & I saw an unusual light formation as we drove over the BF Bridge. We could not stop, I took video from the passenger seat
As we drove east over the Ben Franklin bridge on Sunday, 9/25 at 7:50 pm, I looked to my right (south) and saw a group of 3 lights in a triangle formation hovering and slowly moving north. Each of the 3 lights had an orangish tint and I thought they had a shape that was similar to that of a shuttlecock (from Badminton). My husband also saw the lights and we were both unsure of what they were. I was then looking for my phone to take some pics/video without making a big to-do since our 10 year old was in the back. Once I found my phone, we were nearing the end of the bridge. At this point, they looked more in-line than in a triangle due to the different vantage point. I then noticed there were more than 3 lights. There was 5 or 6 and they were all traveling at the same steady rate, from south to north. Then we just kept going and were perplexed by the whole thing. I realize that Space X launched on Saturday and people were able to see that in this area, but this was different. That appeared to be one larger light that was emitting light and moving across the sky. This was more of a hovering/slow moving formation.
The videos are not great. I included a few still frames from the videos. The shorter video was shot (7:50 PM on 9/25) first with the car window open. I thought I might loose my phone out the window. I believe the longer video (7:51pm) has the car window closed and you can therefore see green reflective lights zoom by -- these are reflections of the lights from the bridge.
I wish I had my phone more accessible earlier to get footage of the orange hovering lights as we were going over the first half of the bridge.
