Mysterious Glowing Orbs Seen Hovering in Minnesota Skies
Recent reports of drones hovering over New York and New Jersey have been followed by sightings of mysterious glowing orbs in the skies above Minnesota. Video footage uploaded by Fox News shows two orbs floating in the sky, eventually moving around before disappearing.
Eyewitness Deborah Wagner from Northfield, Minnesota, described the orbs as “glowing with lights blinking against the night sky.” Her daughter, Chrissy Graddy, has also seen the lights and recorded footage of the orbs on her cell phone.
Graddy’s video shows the orbs hovering with lights blinking, and her children can be heard saying “It’s really low. I’m gonna follow it! There’s another one up there!” The orbs would move away when they spotted people trying to follow them, according to Graddy.
The sightings have led to speculation online and in the media, with theories ranging from the orbs being some kind of weather phenomenon to more nefarious theories, including that they originated from Iran. The Pentagon has denied this.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued a statement saying that it received reports of drone activity near Morris County, New Jersey, and has published two Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) prohibiting drone flights over Picatinny Arsenal Military Base and Trump National Golf Club Bedminster.
The FBI’s Newark Field Office is leading the investigation into the sightings, and has released a statement saying that it is “doing all we can to figure out what’s going on.” The agency is asking residents to report any sightings and to share any videos or photos they may have by calling the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324) or submitting them online at [email protected].
New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has commented on the situation, saying that while authorities have not identified any immediate threats, they are treating the sightings with seriousness. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s office and the NOAA have also been contacted for comment.
The sightings have left many wondering what the mysterious orbs are and where they came from. As the investigation continues, residents are being asked to remain vigilant and report any further sightings.
