Fast moving dunno-what launching through the night

I have a good one here, but can’t upload yet. I’ll post the video as soon as I can. A bright light comes into view through the trees on the left, reappears just past the trees in the center, moving fast from left to right. Then it suddenly turns and launches directly upward out of frame.

Edit: added video

You made it to Trust Level 1, so you should be able to upload now if the video isn’t too large. :+1:

I wonder if it could be fireworks? I think my neighbor was lighting off some a couple of weeks ago. No sound because my cameras are inside looking out.

I suspect it’s another one of these:

Thanks for sharing the video! :+1:

Looks like a bottle rocket the way it doesn’t launch straight.

I thought about that but there was no sound. I was out working on my car in the open garage. I didn’t see it when it happened but I would definitely have heard a firework. That and it looks like it’s out over our field. There’s nothing but farm and woods in the direction it came from.

Here is another strange video I saved. I believe this is a flying bug in my garage with Night Vision on. Your video has me stumped. Thanks for posting.

It’s a Lightning Bug/Firefly.
