Panicked locals in two cities north of Los Angeles, California, piled onto Amazon's Ring neighbors app to report UFOs that'zig zagged' and hovered over the weekend. Their reports of a'bright light' that looked like'a shooting star' but acted more like a'hovercraft' sparked shockwaves across social media -- alongside the emergence of eerie cell phone videos that purported to capture some of these six alleged craft. But a wide community of experts, including UFO researchers with Harvard's Galileo Project, told DailyMail.com The videos appeared to show drone swarms used in an LED light show thousands of miles away from California, based on landmarks and other visual cues, they said. And some of these UFO videos were paired with old and unrelated audio tracks passed off as the videos' own.

The Christmas Spectacular starring the Radio City Rockettes -- an annual holiday stage show presented at Radio City Music Hall in New York City -- began one year after the Music Hall's opening night in 1933, which featured the Missouri Rockets dance troupe out of St. Louis. What was originally a two-week, 30-minute performance featuring an overture, a ballet, and a handful of vignettes expanded into a 90-minute extravaganza complete with real-life animals, a 36-person cast, 1,100 costumes, and 11 digital projectors that's been viewed by more than 75 million people. And this year will mark the addition of something new to the mix: more than 100 specially designed Intel drones choreographed over the stage. Intel says it's the first time its Shooting Star Mini drones have been incorporated into a theatrical indoor performance, and it claims it'll be the world's largest interior drone show. "We are constantly exploring new venues for Intel's drone light shows. It is an honor to partner with Radio City Music Hall to integrate Intel's innovative technology into the iconic Christmas Spectacular," said Natalie Cheung, general manager of Intel's drone light shows.

Intel Corporation flies 2,018 Intel Shooting Star drones over its Folsom, California, facility, in July 2018. The drone light show set a Guinness World Records title for the most unmanned aerial vehicles airborne simultaneously. SAN FRANCISCO -- Three years ago, in a hallway at Intel, a small team of people working on drones discussed whether it would be possible to fly one hundred drones over the Robert Noyce Building, Intel's headquarters in Santa Clara, and have them form the shape of the company's logo. They didn't plan on pursuing it seriously but it became a pet project for Natalie Cheung, who wondered at the time how they could fly multiple drones with one pilot. Now, Cheung is the general manager of Drone Light Shows at Intel and has helped put on hundreds of choreographed drone shows -- and the drones can make a lot more shapes than just the Intel logo.

The drone show was postponed until July 5th, at 9pm, pending weather conditions. SAN FRANCISCO -- A drone light show could be the future Fourth of July entertainment in wildfire-prone northern California -- but not this year. Hundreds of drones, set to wow viewers with a patriotic display of flashing lights in the sky, were grounded Wednesday by windy conditions. Intel's "Shooting Star Drones," which you may have seen at the Winter Olympics, Coachella or Lady Gaga's Super Bowl halftime show in 2017, were set to perform Wednesday at Travis Air Force Base, north of San Francisco, but the show was postponed until July 5th, at 9pm, pending weather conditions. The Travis Air Force Base show plans to use 500 drones and feature a gigantic red, white and blue image of an American flag and California icons, all synchronized to music that will be broadcast for the viewers.

Ehang, the Chinese drone manufacturer, broke its own Guinness World Record by piloting 1374 drones simultaneously above the city of Xi'an. In December 1180 drones were observed over Guangzhou and 1000 drones were flown in the same city in February last year. The drone was flown 853 feet above the city wall and presented an aerial display with 3937-foot length and 328-foot depth in the sky. The citizens and viewers recorded the amazing show on their phones and were left awe-inspiring. Impressing the thousands of citizens, Ehang have knocked off Intel's 1218 drone light show.

PYEONGCHANG, South Korea-- Tech giant Intel says unexpected last-minute "logistical challenges" forced it to scrap plans to launch hundreds of small drones that were to put on a light show as part of the pageantry at the Winter Olympics opening ceremony. Intel, which received heaps of attention for using their Shooting Star drones to put on a show at the 2017 Super Bowl as part of Lady Gaga's halftime performance, had been working for several months on the Olympics performance. A company spokeswoman confirmed to USA TODAY that it had to scrap the live show, but did not respond to a request for a more detailed explanation of what caused the last-minute challenges. IOC spokesman Mark Adams also confirmed the live drone show was scrapped at the last minute, because of an "impromptu" logistical challenge. Several hours before the start of the ceremony, Intel chief strategy officer Aicha Evans told USA TODAY that they planned to launch 300 drones during the tail-end of the ceremony.

Disney has been trying to diversify its entertainment offerings for some time now. Two years back, the company applied for and was granted a patent for using drones to carry screens and pyrotechnics. Now, on Monday, Disney announced that it had been given permission from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to use these drones. Disney drones, which would be programmable and semi-autonomous, will direct the formations such as displaying pixels in a giant TV screen formation in the sky. The approval from FAA, which granted Disney a waiver from existing laws controlling drone movement, is not permanent and can be revoked at anytime. It is valid for a period of four years and the company must use authorized remote pilots and prevent the drones from flying uncontrolled over guest-occupied areas.
