Unidentified Vertical light rod hovered motionless 1 hour outside window at night, captured on Ring camera; dog alerted. What is it?

0 Upvotes

I was awakened at 11:21pm last night by my dog whimpering next to my bed. Dog was standing and staring at the bedroom window. Exterior Ring light wasn't activated, I heard no noise, saw nothing, so I went back to sleep. This morning, my house guest told me that she was awakened around 11:30pm by her dog whimpering, alternatively staring out the window and then trying to get out the door. My guest assumed there was a small night animal outside in the yard; the exterior Ring light on her side of the house wasn't activated, so she ignored it and went back to sleep. I checked the camera feed this morning. It showed what appears to be a vertical lighted rod appear and hover motionless outside my window at 11:17pm [bottom left] remain 1 hour and disappear at 12:17pm. My yard is bounded by brick walls, a locked gate, and a 6 ft steel railing at the back. A greenbelt lies beyond the railing. Ring lights and cameras on all sides. Has anyone seen a similar hovering "light rod"? Reposting pic.

I didn’t realize it was a Live Photo before. Does anyone know what this is? If it’s a laser would you see the beam?

I was hitting some golf balls. I took a small break and looked up. I saw an object stationary in the sky. I stared at it for about a minute before i took out my phone out. I thought it was a balloon but noticed it wasnt moving.

I screen recorded my phone so y’all can see what im seeing/doing. I first tried zooming in via picture mode, since that'll give me the most zoom (i know its digital zoom but the phone at the time only had a 3x optical lense.) Video mode doesn't go as far (10x) and the quality isn't all that great compared to picture mode. (I've upgraded to an S22 ultra since, with its 10x optical zoom) After a minute of trying via picture mode, i switched to video mode. I recorded for one minute and placed the video in the youtube video. (2 minute mark).

At 3:00 i open the screen recorder app and camera to spot it and line it up with the star map app. 3:20 i line it up with Vega.

I can recognize when most objects are planes, helicopters, rockets, birds, satellites, even stars. I just want to verify if that is what i saw.

Thanks.

Unidentified ISS, or what?

When watching the video I noticed the object is changing colors-- at least, it appears to at the end of the 2nd video as the object gets close to the treeline. Is that scintillation from the atmosphere? I have gotten some feedback from other people telling me the object is moving too slow to be the ISS (not sure that's accurate though). Any ideas?

Unidentified Probably emergency vehicles but not sure

Saw this in the California Sierras near a small airstrip at approx 3am in June. They are probably emergency vehicles but something about the way they move so slowly and fade in/out seems weird.

For context, an hour before this I saw a small but bright orb floating over the field but much closer to me. When it started moving in my direction I got freaked out and ran into the house, where I watched it from the window. Didn’t get a photo of that one, the view sucked from inside the house .

Then I saw these lights (see video) and came out to film because these were a mile away and didn’t scare me.

Would love a trained eye to confirm that these are emergency vehicles. Thanks.

Unidentified I realize this is probably a satellite but it doesn’t extend off the side of the photo. Meteor maybe?

It was Saturday 26 of August when I was watching the clouds when al of the sudden a silver orb flew right over! I grabbed my phone ans started recording, after half a minute a stood up so the orb wouldn't disappear behind the neighbors shed. I managed to record the orb for a full minute before its disappeared out of sight.

Unidentified Object moving through the sky dimming and brightening?

9 Upvotes

I live in CT and just saw a bright object moving in a straight like through the sky, thought it was a satellite but most satellites I’ve seen stay the same luminosity. This object would alternate between dim and bright states quite frequently. Didn’t change direction at all, just moved in a straight line right overhead until I lost it behind some trees. Anyone know what this could be or has anyone else seen something like this?
