Large red orb with smaller orbs releasing, Western U.S.
At approximately 1918 hours, a large red orb was observed at a distance, from which two smaller red orbs were seen releasing and moving westward at steady horizontal speed, with lights extinguishing within about 10 seconds. A white flash of light was also observed in the western sky.
“Around 1918 we saw a large red orb at a further distance, facing North and slightly West, past the peak of . I am certain I saw two red, smaller orbs release from the larger one going west, towards . One released at a steady speed and horizontally. I also saw another small red orb go up, but it may have had a slight angle. This orb was fainter, than the horizontal one identified. They were simultaneously released, moving away from the larger orb. The larger orb did not move during this time, and all lights were gone from every orb in about 10 seconds.”
