United States

The headquarters research organization MUFON yesterday received a report from a resident of the village of Villa Park, Illinois. In his letter, the American claimed to have witnessed two memorable events. He saw flying to the international space station, and an unidentified flying object in one day.

According to an eyewitness, the day his friend told him that at half past five in the evening you can watch the flight of ISS in the vicinity of their village. In the evening of the same day the young man had dinner at a Chinese restaurant and at the appointed time, went outside to watch the ISS flying in your binoculars. American described the spectacle with admiration. He noted that long standing, he went back to the restaurant to pick up your order.

But after the man went outside and went home he again looked up at the sky. And what was his surprise when in the place where he watched the flight of the ISS, he found a UFO. The young man described the UFO as very similar to the international space station, only it was moving much slower. The witness has not invented anything better than to capture this incident on his iPhone. And continued to watch the object until it disappeared.

Satellite

Ordinary satellites, which often look like single, not very bright luminous dots moving smoothly in the night sky, are quite often mistaken for UFOs. After the Starlink satellites (near-Earth satellite systems developed by SpaceX, in order to create a cheap and high-performance satellite Internet communication channel and technical transmitters for receiving and transmitting signals from earth and orbit) were launched, it became possible to observe groups of satellites (up to 60 pieces) flying one after another.
