Saw at least 25 large fire like glowing objects fly over camp tonight. It was creepy. What are these things?

Since appearing in red states maybe some will start getting shot down and just by the complaint that follows, may learn who flies them.
They sound like targets to me
In! Page Juan.
I'll bite I guess.
More details would be neat. Any sort of discernible formation? Speed constant? Any changes in flight path? Perceived height and size? Literally anything unusual to them to add?
My first guess would be Starlink satellite trains. Pretty cool to see at night.

Did it look like this?
That's awesome! Maybe the coolest thing I've ever seen in my life was one break up over the Pacific while sitting on a beach at night. Something from a Michael Bay movie. Large fiery streak that came in slowly and once it hit our atmosphere it exploded in a huge cyan wave and the debris looked like sparkles as they faded into nothing. It was massive and beautiful. Just one of those moments where you have a brief connection to a fleeting celestial body and it fills you with wonder while making you feel tiny.
🚨#UPDATE: Officials now report that the object seen tonight is likely the re-entry of a degraded Starlink satellite or a rocket body, not a meteor. If you witnessed it in your area, feel free to share a photo along with the time and location. pic.twitter.com/EcRajViCeY

That makes total sense. It had a large, artificial-esque look that bore a resemblance to both Skylab and Columbia moments in the past.Dan Scott said:🚨#UPDATE: Officials now report that the object seen tonight is likely the re-entry of a degraded Starlink satellite or a rocket body, not a meteor.

Well described. Had the same feeling about two years ago. Saw a meteor explode while driving north of Trinidad, CO. A streak across the sky and exploded with a flash of green light. Blinded me for maybe a second or so. The brightest light I've ever seen. And the brightest light I could ever conceive of. Lit the entire sky like a green/white flashbulb going off. Imagine living a couple hundred years ago with no concept of astronomy and seeing stuff like this.

They are here!
This was posted in a Mississippi Facebook group so take it for what it's worth.
From astronomer Dr Jonathan McDowell
What everyone is seeing is re-entry of a Chinese Commercial Imaging Satellite, GaoJing 1-02. The satellite launched back in 2016 and it was re-entering the Earth's atmosphere. Beijing-based SpaceView, reentered above New Orelans at 10:08 p.m. CST heading northbound towards Mississippi, Arkansas, Missouri, and Alabama.

so, what is up with all these drones sightings....drones as big as a car.
But, one thing is clear: there can be little debate that, among other things, the President's pressure exerted on Vice President Pence to violate his oath, and the false hope it sent to emotionally charged supporters, was wrong, troubling, and impeachable.

They were attacking the Texas State RR in Rusk last night.
Everything is going to be a drone going forward.
Helicopter at night? Drone
Neighbors recreational drone? Top secret drone
Distance headlights on a hill? Drone
Moon? Drone

All the cool stuff happens in East Texas.
And if it was a pack of low flying drones, no doubt they would be shot down in East Texas!

That's how mass hysteria works…
Nor at all these things all moved same direction some a little faster than others. Too high to shoot down so you can forget that idea.
For $50 you too can own a drone. I am surprised that that are not more drones flying overhead. Especially in uncontrolled air space.
That's where I was. They are big also like people have said.
Literally nothing cool happens in East Texas.zephyr88 said:

Unless you like meth. Then it's VERY cool.

In West Texas, not the city of West, been seeing drones and ufos (not ET spacecraft, just unidentified things flying around that are too far to know they're necessarily drones) for a few weeks now

Seeing some unconfirmed reports that it was a Chinese satellite called GaoJing-1 02.
https://bnonews.com/index.php/2024/12/chinese-satellite-burns-up-over-louisiana/
The satellite had been losing orbit with no control since last year. Astronomers knew the satellite was going to burn up in the atmosphere overnight they just weren't sure where it would come down.

My neighbor is convinced she took video of some drones over the neighborhood. They were clearly general aviation planes. Now we are confusing burnt up satellites for drones?
I'm just laughing at the idea that some one thought that was a single degraded starlink. Aside from the solar panels a Starlink satellite is about the size of your kitchen table. The originals weigh in around 500 lbs and the V2s are a bit over 700lbs.
That was a much larger orbital body.
That was a much larger orbital body.
I can't imagine anyone seeing that and not realizing it was a satellite burning up, or a meteor at the very least.

I've met a lot of anyone's.
It doesn't require much imagination to understand they are DUMB!
