No of observers: 4

Location: Lewisville, TX, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

My friends and I saw up to 40 lights in the North Texas sky.

On 11/27/2004 around 16:30 I was arriving home from Christmast shopping with friends. I live on the third floor of an apartment building in Lewisville Texas (North Dallas). When I reached the top of the stairs something caught my eye in the sky. I turned and saw about 8-10 objects in the Northern horizon moving up and to the east. Just to the Northwest of these lights was a low hanging strange like smoke that moved in the same direction of the lights. I watched lights for about 30 seconds, thinking they where balloons. Then I went into my house. Immediately upon entering my house I received a telephone call from a friend of mine that lives on the second floor of my building, come outside on the patio immediately. By this time, her son was on the patio as well as my neighbor that lives directly below me. We began to watch these 10-12 of these objects in the sky. My friends looked at them with binoculars and we quickly decided that they where not balloons but some type of light. They seemed to launch from somewhere on the horizon and move up and to the right. We watched this set of lights until they we could no longer see them anymore. This went on for about an hour. I would say we saw a total of 4 sets of these lights. We where so amazed with the lights and the strange looking fog on the horizon that we failed to take any pictures. Living near DFW airport we are use to seeing lots of airplanes. We did not see airplanes last night, we even joked because we saw airplanes flying in different points in the sky. At one point 2 of the lights almost played with each other by jerking back and forth, like they where playing tug of war.
