There was two sets of lights. first set has about 50 lights traveling in a line going se. some objects had 3 lights like a cigar shape on its side. silent. they appeared to rise up from horizon in an arc one after the other as if coming from the ground. when we turned our cameras on, all the lights went out. the neighbors watching this huge display made every excuse they were planes. but we don't live in a flight path and why would a total of 70 objects all disappear at once. i might have thought that but things didn't add up. we saw them disappear. people have blinders on and it's frustrating. my brother and i saw another fleet about 2 weeks ago going over the house but in a different direction. we live in a very rural part of illinois and the rare occasion a military plane goes over we can hear it from inside. these were silent.
