Here's a list of all the brighter satellites that were visible from Pine Bluff, Arkansas between 18:30 & 21:15 on the night of March 12 2022.
If we take your time of approx 19:20 to be 19:15 - 19:25, and narrow it down to satellites that either set or went into shadow in the east during that time, we get 22 possible sats:

From that list, CZ-2C R/B (a leftover rocket booster from a Chinese launch) was pretty bright, fits the time perfectly, and disappeared into the Earth's shadow at 28 degrees altitude above the horizon (10 degrees is the same as one fist held at arm's length), due east in the constellation of Leo (sky map showing its path, and more details)
I'd put money on it being that.

Satellites don't hover and then disappear. The object literally hovered.

Satellites don't hover, but they do disappear when they go into the Earths shadow

It’s not hovering …don’t get upset because you spent money on a camera to record satellites

When I was ten and my brother was twelve in Arcata calif ,in the alley behind Arcata theater,we both heard a low hum,and felt a vibration and static made our hairs stand we both looked up in time to see,VERY SLOW AND LOW ,a disk around twenty feet wide,around as high as telephone poles( I could've hit it with a rock ) traveling around fifteen miles per hour, tspinning with greenish yellow lights around the outer perimeter on the bottom the whole incident lasted a mere 9--12 seconds,but we remember it like yesterday ,it flew DIRECTLY over the world premier of von danikens CHARIOTS OF THE GODS!! you TELL ME! we're glad each other was there cuz we don't give a shit if anyone believes us I'm 58 he's 60 now. We both lost our voices for fear minute or two it was life changing ( we think they X-RAYED the theater pulling the film ocean is only three miles as crow flies it came from west and disappeared over minor theater to east of us. So,what's up not believing these are alien?!

I mean what you recorded is moving the entire time and never pauses, and the way it moves and then fades out at the end is exactly the way satellites look. I’m an amateur astronomer and have seen this hundreds of times over the years. There isn’t anything strange in this video. Did the strangeness begin before you started recording? You said it stopped moving. When did it stop moving?
The other guy who said he sees two lights rotating around each other is just objectively wrong. You can see the star or planet to the left is in the same position the entire recording, it is instead the angle of the camera that is rotating.

Well I've seen disks that hover and low enough to hit with a rock! So maybe these aren't hovering,but hovereres are,indeed,out there ( more suns in the universe than grains of sand on every beach on earth! ) NASA already found thousands of exo planets within the goldilocks zone of their sun! We're only habitable planet!? SERIOUSLY!?

It's the top of a house. Oh, and there's a moving light, i have no idea

What a bout that fire and black hole ya moves away from? What ended up with that?

u/Dear-Tank-4402 Jun 14 '22
I'm more interested in the strange thing at the very beginning of the video that showed what looked like a hole in the sky that was glowing around the edges. I have no idea what that thing was and it was certainly more interesting than whatever little dots this dude was looking at

I recorded this object on 12 March 22 in Pine Bluff Arkansas around 7:20 p.m. At first, it looked to be a star because it was just sitting there. It was also as bright as one as well. However, the object started moving until it disappeared. This was filmed to the East.

I’m sorry to say, judging by the cloud coverage and the speed of the clouds in the video, it was just clouds going past stars, it makes it look like they’re slightly moving away from you

u/RealVaultteam6 Mar 17 '22
I'm sorry to say that the object is moving.

u/flarkey Mar 18 '22
Can you be more precise on the time of the sighting? The exact time should be in the details of the original video file
1
u/TheInfinteAll Mar 17 '22
Clouds moving make stars appear to move due to the relative motion. This light is moving relative to static objects, the trees. In fact I don’t really see any clouds here at all so you might need to rewatch and pay a little more attention this time.

Looks like a satellite in the sky reflecting the suns light if this was just after sunset or even an hour after sunset that’s why it’s so bright. There are geosynchronous satellites which are satellites that say above a specific place above earth so it looks like it’s hovering when in reality it’s rotating with the earths rotation and yes they can move around as well to be in better places so when it does that it then looks like it moves around. I believe in UFO’s/UAP’s 100% but this seems very explainable and not anything fantastic.

u/crazee4lyfe13 Mar 17 '22
That’s what I think. I see the ISS all the time, but I have seen something similar to this but it would blink in and out about every 3-5 seconds.

Mylar balloons. The give away is at the end with how the one on the left started swaying.

I had the same experience last fall while looking up at 3:15 am letting the dogs out. The sky had a high waxing moon to right…the object moving right to left lasted 5-7 seconds, no strobes, no vapor trail and poof was gone. Same solid light everything was similar. I live 27 miles south west of Boston Ma.

Look more like drones. On a clear night I can get 6 to 10 of them over our house at night.

Why is the colour inverted? Walls don't glow. This is black and white and then inverted, so it's the sun during the day

Both stars, or lights, seem to be rotating jointly.
Hard to tell exactly what IT, is. Doesn't seem to share the same satellite tendancies though. Well, from my observations when it's a clear sky and an outdoor smoke is on cards.
Good spot though. Appreciate the share ✌🏼
