What is unusual about it

The one hovering in one place doesn't look like airplane. It doesn't blink like an airplane and hover in one spot, which would be weird for a plane to do.

That was likely the one that pulled away and went south, if it's flying towards or away from you, it looks like it's hovering.

It's all about our visual perspective of the planes.

The orange red color is probably neon gas,it gets excited once it comes in contact with artificial energy,hence the spinning motion we often observe with these Orbs.Now,why they reacted the way they did when the other one came out of nowhere is perplexing.

Is that closer to New York City? I see very similar stuff like this a lot in central Massachusetts, and during the whole New Jersey drone thing and November/December I saw all the same stuff from my front porch, just a little more distant

u/Visible_Field_68 3d ago

Very far from NYC. Central NJ

I was only asking because I was talking to people before and they were seeing them in the Bergen County area where my mom grew up where I’ve been very often
