I stayed up late to catch the lunar eclipse tonight, and I ended up witnessing a fleet of UFOs!
\nTime<\/strong>: 1:24 AM CST
\nLocation<\/strong>: Hermitage, TN (on the outskirts of Nashville) <\/p>\n

While watching the total lunar eclipse, I spotted about 20 objects that looked like UFOs or drones. Initially, I thought they were birds, but their movement was unlike anything I\u2019ve ever seen. I’ve spent 25 years gazing at the night sky, and I\u2019ve never encountered anything like this before. <\/p>\n

Unlike geese flying in formation, the objects were scattered, loosely grouped, and moving in the same direction. They appeared white or light grey\u2014likely illuminated by Nashville’s light pollution\u2014rather than reflecting moonlight, especially since the eclipse was nearing totality. A few minutes after totality, I noticed a group of 3 objects moving towards me that looked similar to the first fleet, perhaps 5 in total. They danced around for a bit before heading back the way the others had. <\/p>\n

Growing up near Nashville International Airport, I\u2019m very familiar with how planes appear in the sky, and I\u2019ve also seen the Starlink satellites pass by. But this was different. I considered the possibility that someone was out flying a bunch of drones for fun during the eclipse, but they didn\u2019t seem to follow any coordinated patterns. Their altitude was quite high, and their movements reminded me of a ping pong ball bobbing around in a bathtub\u2014definitely moving in a general direction, but with lots of slight up-and-down and side-to-side shifts. <\/p>\n

Apologies for the lengthy post; I\u2019ve always wanted to see UFOs, and it finally happened! I wanted to document as much detail as possible before heading to bed. Just so you know, I quit THC two months ago, don\u2019t drink, and I\u2019m not on any psychoactive substances. <\/p>\n

Edit:<\/strong> After posting, I discovered that some birds do migrate at night. I watched some YouTube videos but still believe these were not birds. If you mention they were Starlink satellites, I’ll be blocking you for not reading carefully! \ud83d\ude02 <\/p>\n

Edit 2:<\/strong> Someone shared a video of something they saw on \/r\/HighStrangeness that closely resembles what I observed! Check it out here: https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/HighStrangeness\/s\/hnVUkp5NRw<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
