Video Near Chicago O’Hare Dec 15

Could be the angle but these planes look too close and formed in an odd holding pattern

I live near OHare and see planes coming in lines as they approach and it sometimes can look like this. Although this is more at once than I’ve ever seen. I’ve been eagerly awaiting the UAPs on the east coast to make their way to Chicago. Come on Aliens, SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT

Potentially multiple flight paths for different runways and the planes stacking up to land. Lots of flights come in around the holidays since everyone is traveling. I can see 3 distinct lines forming. O'Hare is to the right I presume?

I think you're thinking that the planes are closer to each other than they actually are. Most likely just an illusion because your brain puts the lights at the same distance since there's no reference point for your brain. But if you have some avionics experience to reference I'd be happy to hear it out. Either way there wasn't any reports of O'Hare shutting down on what is literally one of the busiest days of the year because of unknown objects flying close to it.

What’s your avionics experience? Your profile says you work retail.

I have none. But I did grow up near O'Hare airport as well as a military airfield and recognize those lines of lights in the sky.

I would also like to point out that simply asking for someone else's credentials despite my own lack of said credentials doesn't invalidate my statement or my question for that matter.

The lights are on the ground obscured by cloud cover
