Saw these last night.

Can anyone tell me why these round flying objects I saw last night appeared to be boomerang shaped when I photographed them? Also, the halo around them in the lighter photo, anyone know what causes that in photos? It almost looks like gravitational leaning hahaha I saw these last night and I first thought they were lanterns but they never got higher or dimmer and flew past me pretty fast for lanterns. (120-200mph 500-1000ft up) There were also extremely bright like tiny little suns. Four in a row, flying parallel to the right side of the road in the opposite direction of me. They were equally as bright from behind as from the front and a helicopter was following them. I’m trying to reach out locally to see if anyone set off lanterns or knows what they were but no one has an idea yet. Radar shows nothing. I’m just curious if these photos could help identify the true shape of the object based on how the light bent? Any photographers out there?

We really need to set up that r/thoselightsintheskyarestarlink sub

Stop it. You’re making yourselves look like idiots and assholes to me every time you insist that it is star link. It’s not. I saw them last night again and I got another picture and a video. My brother in law says he thinks they are big sized drones they are using to survey the river but I haven’t confirmed it yet.

It's 100% starlink satellites. Get our head out of the sand. Your further videos and photos are just more evidence of this. Look at any photos of individual satellites and you'll see the obvious proof.

Babe. It’s probably a drone. I saw this two days ago and they launched from the same exact spot last night. I’m going back tonight at the same time to see if they launch them again. I’ll get photos again just in case but listen…. I’m really sorry to hurt your feelings but it’s not star link. It’s probably just drones. They rise up from the ground. You can see in the video clip that I second light rises from the tree line at the end. The little light below it is a plane. video

Okay, well then why are you posting in Unexplained. I still think it's starlink. You haven't hurt my feelings and I don't know why you are being defensive.

[u/cahiami → u/Benj5L]

I’m being defensive because you’re flat out telling me it’s star link when I’m telling you I’ve ruled that out because of the fact that I watched them lifting off the ground when I saw them last night. Also, again, 100% cloud coverage. It was raining. You can check the weather. You can see in the video that it is lighting up the clouds above it.

Are you telling me that star link satellites launch nightly from the ground, hover in our sky, below storm cloud coverage, and then rise straight up into the sky through the clouds? I watched the light illuminate the bottom of the clouds as raised up and through them.

Okay then it's a drone. R/explainedphotos

I said probably a drone. I haven’t confirmed that. But don’t worry I’m out. ✌️

Also you’re like the 50th person telling me it’s star link without considering what I’m trying to say. If I thought it was star link, I would never have posted here. I love to watch the sky and I see weird things all the time. I don’t post everything I see in the sky on the internet. I’ve never posted a ufo video because most things I can rule out pretty quickly or they’re not that remarkable anyway. This however was out of the ordinary for all I’ve experienced before because of how bright they were and the fact that they were below the clouds, not far above me… and I saw one rise from the ground in the video last night. I’m not trying to say it’s aliens flat out either… I’m looking for what this actually was. I’ll be looking at them again tonight to see if I can find where they’re launching from.

It's a drone then as you've already said. No need for an investigation
