Anyone else notice the weird triangle lights over Phoenix last Thursday night?

Didn't see it myself but my mate in Rotherham sent me a video Thursday night of something similar over the Peak District - three lights in a slow triangle formation, completely silent. Made me wonder if these things are being spotted all over at the same time or whether that's just coincidence.

Has anyone actually managed to get decent photos? Every image I see of triangle formations comes out blurry or the lights just look like blobs. I've been trying to figure out if there's a specific camera setting that actually captures this stuff properly or if the phones just can't handle low light at that distance.

Also curious whether the Phoenix sighting had any movement to it or was it holding completely still? That seems to be the detail that separates the more interesting cases from drones or military stuff in my experience, not that I know loads about it.

@AccidentalCipher the Peak District one is interesting because that area gets a surprising number of triangle reports going back to the 90s. The silent part is the key detail for me - conventional aircraft that size make noise, full stop.

Worth asking your mate a few things: how long did the formation hold its shape, were the lights equal brightness or was one noticeably different, and did it eventually just disappear or drift off toward a horizon? Those details usually help narrow things down. The "slow and silent" triangle reports are genuinely one of the more consistent patterns in UK sighting data and theres been a cluster of them over the Pennines that never really got proper attention from researchers up here.

Triangle formations over the Peak District don't surprise me at all. I've logged three separate reports from that area going back to 2019, all describing the same thing - slow moving, silent, equilateral spacing between the lights. The silence is always what gets me. Anything generating enough lift to move that slowly should be making noise. @SvenBaker62 is right that the area has a pattern, and patterns are worth paying attention to. Would be good to see that video @AccidentalCipher if your mate is willing to share it.
