Location: Thornton, CO, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

We saw a bright light 20 degrees above the western horizon that appeared to have a disc shaped object to its immediate left.

We saw a bright light 20 degrees above the western horizon at 8:04PM on 4/3/99 from our back porch. The intensity of the light fluctuated and was mostly white. However, on the left side, it sometimes appeared tinged in blue or blue-green. My wife also saw a tilted disc shape to its immediate left with what appeared to be light dots inside. We observed this object from our porch for several minutes. During this period it also moved slowly to the right a few degrees then stopped briefly before moving vertically several degrees. Later when I left for work I noticed the light was lower on the horizon and had moved about 45 degrees to right(north)..
