That's called fireworks

Sorry but I believe you are seeing airliners flying overhead on a clear night.
Download the FlightRadar24 app and next time you see the UFO open the app and see if it matches up to the anything above your area.

I legit just saw something too.
It looked a greenish firework shooting down from the sky. I'm about 30 minutes outside of B.R. though.
ETA: Looked like a green shooting star.
ETAA: I just saw another. It's not airliners in the sky. These are moving too fast for that. I actually do see a plane in the sky, but this is moving different than an airliner. They're shooting down from the sky like shooting stars or meteorites or something. This second one was more whitish than green like the first one was.

Southern Taurids
Active from September 7th to November 19th
The Southern Taurids are a long-lasting shower that reaches a barely noticeable maximum on October 9 or 10. The shower is active for more than two months but rarely produces more than five shower members per hour, even at maximum activity. The Taurids (both branches) are rich in fireballs and are often responsible for increased number of fireball reports from September through November.
Radiant: 02:08 +8.7° - ZHR: 5 - Velocity: 17 miles/sec (slow - 28km/sec) - Parent Object: 2P/Encke
The Southern Taurids are currently active!

Gotta be meteors.

I know the sky is lit from super bright moon tonight, but I've seen some crazy stuff tonight. About 20 stars flashing red, white and green at different depths, stationary the entire team. 10 more of those moving quickly across the sky. 4 flashing very quickly and bright white only and 2 shooting stars. FTR I am not a conspiracy theorist. Anyone else seen anything. I saw this around 9 to 9:30 pm and I'm pretty sure its still going on.
If only there was a device most people could hold in their hand, that could record strange phenomena, that could connect to the world wide web, that could share such recordings. Maybe in the future we will have such technology, but until then, I will just take your word for it...

Dude, if we could predict when and where in the sky they'd appear, we could record them. It's the whole "predicting the future" thing that doesn't exist yet.

Yeah.. I just couldn't find any articles mentioning September meteor showers until Captain Lafitte posted his link.
I did come across a few articles saying that Canadians were seeing the same thing last night. LINK
Meteor showers are badass. Unexpected meteor showers are really, really badass.
Posted on 9/7/17 at 1:34 am to PhifeDogg
so OP ran inside to post on his computer and not from a device that could literally record what he is seeing and then post it to the internet?
Posted on 9/7/17 at 1:48 am to touchdownjeebus
You're not hearing me. They only last a fraction of a second, and I only saw 2 in about 20 minutes. You've seen meteorites and shooting stars, right?? You'd have to point your phone at the sky, hope you're pointing it in the right direction, and then hope that you happen to see one before your battery dies. And even if you did happen to catch one on video, it would be shitty quality and you'd claim it was a firefly or somebody flicking a lit cigarette or some shite like that.
I'm talking about what I saw, and I'm assuming OP saw the same thing as me.

Normally you need good night vision googles to see the secret space program in action. Guess there was a malfunction in the phase cloaking device tonight.

I did record it. But pointing a camera phone into the night sky to film a small light produces crappy video. I even zoomed in, so I have dark grainy video. Awesome.

We are having a large earth facing solar flare the 6th and 7th. They stated it could cause odd "lights" in the sky.
Posted on 9/7/17 at 6:14 am to lbj1808
Yesterday was the 15th largest solar flare on record; potential to see the Northern Lights in Arky.
