Five shifting fire ball objects heading west from New Jersey
I was heading home from NYC at approximately 5:30pm on the bus, heading south on the I-95 on a clear evening. At around Newark, exit 13A, which is also the location of Newark International Airport, I saw five fire balls with a tail heading west towards Pennsylvania. At first I thought it was meteors. I continued to look. Then these apparent objects shifted its position in a way that would rule out meteors. These objects flew much higher than any plane I ever saw. As they passed over the airport, airplanes were either taking off or landing. As my bus continued south, I could see these objects shifting side to side but heading west. The person sitting next to me, a total stranger also saw these lights and could not explain what they could be.
