These are landing lights. Landing lights can be seen >100 miles away, therefore they often appear stationary due to the distance & the fact that the airplane is flying towards the observer when a landing light is seen. ORD & EWR have some of the busiest airspaces on Earth https://www.flightradar24.com/data/airports/EWR https://www.flightradar24.com/data/airports/ord https://skybrary.aero/articles/external-lights

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1868915324722335973
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
