A resident of Corona, Queens captured viral footage of three luminous orbs moving erratically over New York City last Sunday. Charlie Correa shared the video on Reddit, showing the objects dancing in a loose triangular formation while chasing each other across the night sky. Correa discredited theories that the objects were drones, saying they lacked the standard red and green blinking lights required for night flying. Despite living only a mile from LaGuardia Airport, he also doubted that they were conventional planes, as the Federal Aviation Administration issued no official alerts regarding the formation.
While the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) maintains there is currently no evidence of alien technology, the frequency of strange sightings over the tri-state area continues to fuel public debate. Online theories for this most recent appearance range from military drones and reflected city lights to more extraterrestrial explanations. The FAA stated that while they document Unidentified Aerial Phenomena reported by pilots, they do not comment on unofficial civilian footage.
Earlier this week, Coast to Coast AM also reported on another trio of lights filmed in Slovakia. What do you think is the source of these odd formations? Let us know on our Facebook page!
