Initial data
An eyewitness took this video on camera — Phoenix, 10/25/23.
I've been living in this house for 20 years. We spend countless nights looking at the stars in the backyard. I am very familiar with the appearance and flight patterns of airplanes, helicopters, SpaceX, etc. I've seen and controlled drones, and it's a completely different feeling.
Whatever it was, it took me about 43 minutes in real time to fly over my house at 1:33 a.m., and it was close enough that I could see the light reflecting off my garden furniture.
It happened 5 nights in a row (20.10-25.10) at about the same time, but I only managed to download two videos, and it was the best of the two. I put the camera in a better place and it hasn't been seen since.
I've had experience in the past, but this was the first report I made to MUFON. Their decision was "insufficient data".

Caught this video on my ring camera - Phoenix 10/25/23
Video
I’ve lived in this home for 20 years. We spend countless nights star gazing in the back yard. Very familiar with the look and flight patterns of planes, helicopters, spaceX etc. I have seen and operated drones and this feels different. Whatever this is, it took approximately 43 minutes in real time to fly over my house at 1:33am, and was close enough that you can see light reflecting across my patio furniture. This happened 5 nights in a row (10/20-10/25) around the same time but I was only able to download two videos and this was the best of the two. I put the camera in a better location and it hasn’t showed up since. I have had experiences in the past but this was the first report I have made to MUFON. Their determination was “insufficient data.”
Hypotheses
The heavenly bodies
The brightest heavenly bodies in the sky are Venus, Jupiter, and sometimes Mars and, of course, the Moon.
Venus is the bright yellow of the evening or morning star, shining in the sky on the background of evening or dawn. Maximum brightness of Venus can reach up to 4.3 m, and she is the third brightness of the sun in earth's sky after the sun and the moon. It so well reflects the light of the Sun that it is relatively easy to see and day, especially if you know the location. It manifests itself in the form of tiny blinking white dots.
Investigation
The comments suggest that since the flight took 43 minutes, it could have been the Moon.
This is quite a likely option, based on time. The light bulbs around the object are most likely the same glare as the reflections from the garland located next to the window where the object appeared.
