Full Description of Event/Sighting: I live on the top floor/penthouse of a 15 story high rise in Burlington, Ontario and was letting my dog outside (on the rooftop) at approximately 8:55 p.m. before leaving for work.
I observed 4 large round objects which were glowing orange in colour with no flashing lights or sound headed northwest in a loose formation.
The objects were at approx 5-7000 feet and the sky was very clear with many stars visible and aircraft seen in the distance approaching Pearson Toronto airport.

The objects moved slowly together for a few minutes before one by one they would break off from the group and change direction upward towards space accelerating quickly till they disappeared.
The objects were very large and very bright and I could not compare them to anything I have seen in the sky before.

An aircraft flew directly below them on approach to Hamilton's International Airport seconds after their departure. I called my sister and a homecare nurse who was attending to my father at the time and they also witnessed the event.
I also asked my sister to get her I-Phone out and she was able to briefly film the event. I will try to download her video to my PC in the coming days. The sighting had to have been seen by others in my community.

Hi, My cousin got married at Geraldo's at LaSalle Park in Burlington Ontario - at approximately 9pm time they released Chinese Lanterns which were very exciting to see.
ReplyDeleteThey light the bottoms on fire and then hold them until they fill with hot air - they were about 3 feet tall and it took a while for the party to fill their lanterns as it was a colder night. 3 were released at almost the same time - they twirled together as they got higher in the sky. We were all quite surprised at how high they got and they move in interesting patterns and then one flamed out and dove off to one side.
It could have looked like something darting away. We have video of it but it is so hard to see after they are released as the camera had a hard time focusing on the little lights as they assented.
After the three that twirled together 2 more were released so they were down below the others. When they flamed out we could watch the lanterns fall slowly - they are made of cardboard and are biodegradable so they do not harm nature. I would definitely do this sort of thing for a party but understand how as they get higher in the sky, people who don't know an event is happening would be surprised to see orbs of light in the sky with no sound.
