Duration: 45 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Palm Desert, CA, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

Numerous lighted triangular craft observed simultaneously in different quadrants of sky over Palm Desert, CA.

Observed numerous triangular shaped craft while driving. As many as three flying in formation and several singly, simultaneously in widely different quadrants of the sky. Craft featured bright white lights outlining the shape which sometimes alternated to red/white in a strobing fashion. Altitude and size difficult to gauge, but closest craft that flew nearly vertical over car was low, possibly 1,500' AGL. Speed was very slow, but at times seemed to accelerate rapidly. At least one craft observed appeared to be hovering for several minutes toward the west in the direction of Palm Springs. At times, the white lights would flash two times with great intensity, then dim down. The Palmn Springs Film Festival is underway, so the thought occurred to me that it was some sort of promotional stunt for a film?!? All in all the objects were strange at best.
