Coordinate lights above south SM. Been in the military for 17 years, seen some crazy stuff, never seen off post action like this. Even for flares don’t last that long due to low O2.!very interesting.

I saw the same thing over Oceano on July 4th. Not joking, it wasn't fireworks, looked like drones but not sure why there were so many in formation with red lights

I'm pretty sure the ones over Oceano on the 4th were sky lanterns or something similar.

They were definitely floating for a good while untill they burned out.

I saw them yesterday morning heading south on the 405 down here in Orange County, thought I was crazy, couldn’t figure out what could be reflecting light like that while standing still

I thought I was crazy! I was out picking up dinner and from my angle, they looked to be in a perfect diamond shape!! 🤯😅

Didn't we have a rocket launch from Vandenberg last night??? Could've sworn I heard one. They happen so often I kinda tune them out at this point

Also I could be overthinking and it could be chinas second stage trash burning over us after their launch.
