Something is off with the data.
Chino, CA
Report 4 of 11 "Orange and red sphere over Northern Virginia [...]"
Report 7 of 11 "This was a red light which was moving quite fast over Aberdeen, Scotland. [...]"
Report 8 of 11 "Orange Sphere over Northwest Florida [...]"
It is not an isolated problem for Chino, CA. Most(?) locations that have more than one report will include a report for an event that is nowhere near the selected location.

I was going to mention a similar thing. There are some UP tracks in Southern California that haven't existed in over 30 years now, if not more.

It originally didn't load for me on Firefox. I turned my ad blocker off though and it loaded.

The first think I noticed was this "OHM Worldwide Rendering Testbed" about 30 miles east of Seattle. https://openhistoricalmap.org/#map=12/47.7505/-121.7306&laye...

There was a kid I knew in school who I would consider a very good tetris player. One time someone else was lamenting that they always get bad pieces and he said, "The Tetris gods will never give you a piece you can't play, you just don't know how to play it." Which has resonated with me for an oddly long time in my life.

The op of this thread replied to my comment with a military.com article, and in that article there is a link to an article on thedrive, https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/42392/damaged-b-2-spir...
"According to sources, the B-2 experienced a hydraulic failure in flight and had its port main landing gear collapse during landing, sending it off the runway with its wing dug into the ground. We cannot confirm that this was the case at this time, but the satellite image above does concur with the gear collapse/wing down aspect of the incident. While it is possible the aircraft was rolled off the runway after the fact, this is unlikely, especially considering its wing-down disposition. The damage to the aircraft also remains unknown. "

Ah very interesting! I saw the skid marks on the runway north of the plane and was wondering if it was an emergency landing situation considering that it was just on the side of the runway. Pretty cool to read the article and get the other half of the story.

On Google Earth you can use the timeline feature to actually see when the imagery was captured (or at least uploaded?). The plane sitting near the hangers was from a capture in May 2016. Google Earth currently shows several newer captures, including one from September 2021. The current one from September 2021 is actually far more interesting in my opinion. In it, you can see a B2 sitting in a field about a quarter up the runway (38°43'27.63"N 93°32'54.86"W) with stuff scattered all around it and trucks sitting on the runway. https://i.imgur.com/lh1hkWN.png
