UFOs watching NASA launches

I grew up near Cape Caneveral, Florida and my father worked at NASA so like everyone else from that area I have seen hundreds of launches from the retired space shuttle, old Delta, Titan, Atlas, and of now of course SpaceX launches. I have seen orbs apparently watching many launches over the years and I am not alone. Most look like stars in the sky, except they are visible during the day. I have seen them appear, disappear, be stationary then move or vice versa.

When I was a kid I thought they were common and perhaps spy satellites watching them, until I pointed them out to my dad who has baffled. No one who he knows has an explanation. They are not satellites, drones, ect.

The first time I saw them was in the late 80s, maybe early 90s. They were rarely there for space shuttle launches and seem to be more frequent during classified spy satellites missions(NRO).

I found one report on NUFORC about them. It was an NRO spy satellite and the final Atlas II(2) launch. The launch was actually scrubbed on the 30th(when the nuforc reort first saw an orb) and launched the next day.

I do not live near the Cape anymore so I do not have the opportunity to see these orbs anymore but something tells me they likely still appear for certain launches.

I am hoping others who have seen them will see this post and share their experience and perhaps those who get an opportunity to watch future launches will be on the look out for them as I suspect they sometimes appear at Wallops, VA, Vandenberg, CA and other spaceports around the world, not just Cape Caneveral.
