The flashing white and red lights were seen travelling in a line formation as they travelled west across the US towards Nevada.

Residents from Columbia, South Carolina, to Missouri, Illinois and Denver, Colorado reported seeing the lights pass overhead and was even picked up by national news channel CBS and Denver station 9News.

Some witnesses described the line of lights in the sky as "creepy", saying they were silent as they passed over between 8pm and 9pm local time on Saturday. 

One witness filming the event said: "A bunch of weird lights over Denver. There was like an asteroid... it was almost like a fireball that came down and now, all of a sudden, they look like a bunch of helicopters.

"There is some crazy stuff going on right now."
