NUFORC Sighting 118502

Occurred: 2015-04-12 20:00 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2015-04-18 20:50 Pacific
Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Helena, MT, USA

Shape: Orb


4 or 5 Amber orbs, 20 seconds apart approach Helena MT from the south then turn east over the capitol building.

My son came in and said there was a amber orb in the sky. We went to the porch facing east. He pointed toward the Capitol building and said it was right there but we saw nothing.

Then out of the south, another orb moving north towards us. Over the capitol it changed direction and headed east. No sound, just a sphere of amber-orange light.

About 20 seconds later another orb flying along the same flight path as the first ones. We saw 4 in about 2 minutes.

There was a thin low cloud bank to the east and as they past behind it you could still see the light but faded. It was otherwise a clear sky, well lit, with no wind.

I can estimate their speed at 200 to 400 MPH. I can estimate their altitude at around 2500 FT. They appeared to be climbing.

All 4 or 5 seemed to follow each other's flight path and speed. Flying N-NE in a straight line over the south hills, then turning east as they were about over the capitol building.
