One time my wife and I were staring up in the sky and saw this HUGE light. We were freaking out, thought it was some military craft test. Like nothing we had seen before.

The clouds parted and it was the moon lol

no shame. it has happened to all of us. one night you will look in the sky, see a light and be like "WTF IS THAT?" and it will be something obvious that was just obscured or something like the moon

i bet it even seemed to move a little strangely and stuff. wild how such a vast space can fuck with your perception, huh?

once we were looking at the night sky. suddenly just before midnight multiple deep purple coloured bright light sources appeared circling in chaotic zigzag moves above some point far away. it only lasted a few seconds but then we realized it was only light from the moon, the rising sun and some clouds that must have tricked us somehow, so we were just amused called it a day and quickly went inside to make brunch cause we were all hungry like we just came home from an exhaustive daytrip or such but news later confirmed that all we must have seen was just a weather balloon.

now really i had seen a huge bright light in the sky that lit up the valley as if it was day once in switzerland. turned out to be a military thing they used during some night time exercise. it was like a parachute signal rocket but white and burning really long like longer than 15minutes i think and that light also didnt move much.

Lmao, my wife and i were once having a chat outside, when we both saw a giant green meteor race past the sky. My first reaction was a peasant brained "well, that's it. It's the end.". Her reaction was to look at me like i had two heads and call me a dumbass.
