If there is anywhere to ask this question it's here.
Has anyone else been seeing fast moving, high altitude lights in the night sky lately? Compared to stars they emit a slighty more yellow light, and it is only a singular light. Last night I observed two different paths of transit. One was a South to North, and the other was roughly West to East.
These lights move significantly faster, and far higher than any conventional aircraft, either civilian or military. But, they move significantly slower than "shooting stars."
I know that there are plenty of "satellite tracker" websites that have transit coordinates, but these definitely aren't satellites. They are too bright, too low, and too fast to be mis-identified.
I'd include photos if I had them, but I neither have a good telescope or high quality camera. I'll just leave it to the community.
Seriously, go check out the night sky. Once you see these things you'll immediately understand my curiosity.
It's almost like this anomalous craft footage from Crroww777.
I live in Colorado, but I highly doubt this phenomena is localized to the Western U.S. based on how fast these lights are moving.
Just saw one again tonight, at 8:27p.m. Mountain Standard Time, South to North transit.
