I’ve been observing the same orb in the sky for years, usually right before sunset. Today, while driving home, I managed to capture some good pictures of it. I’ve noticed these orbs appearing not just over my workplace, but all around my local area—typically 1 to 3 at a time. I’d love to hear any thoughts or insights on this phenomenon!
It sounds like you’ve been observing something intriguing in the sky! Orbs that appear consistently at specific times could be due to a variety of reasons. Here are a few possibilities to consider:
Drones or Aircraft: Sometimes, what we see as orbs can be drones or aircraft lights, especially around sunset when they become more visible against the darker sky.
Satellites: Certain satellites can reflect sunlight at specific times, making them appear as bright points in the sky shortly after sunset.
Atmospheric Phenomena: There are various atmospheric phenomena, such as reflections or refractions of light, that can create orb-like appearances.
Stars or Planets: While you mentioned they can’t be stars or planets, it’s worth checking if they could be. Bright planets like Venus or Jupiter can often be seen around sunset and may appear as orbs.
Other Phenomena: There are reports of unusual aerial phenomena that could be worth researching further.
It would be interesting to compare your photos with astronomical charts to see if there are any celestial objects that match what you’ve observed. Keep documenting what you see, and perhaps consider sharing your findings with local astronomy clubs for more insight!
