NUFORC Sighting 158100

Occurred: 2020-08-01 01:10 Local
Reported: 2020-07-31 23:21 Pacific
Duration: 3 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Big Falls, MN, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

I was sitting on my back porch smoking, when I thought I saw a shooting star above the tree line. I looked up to watch it, and saw that it wasn't a shooting star, it was 3 individual lights in a triangular formation, moving in sync.

The lights continued in a straight line for a few seconds, paused momentarily, the shot upwards and disappeared.

I couldn't see much detail of the craft itself, but it looked metallic, as there were areas near the lights where it was illuminated enough to see a little bit of the curves of the craft.

I live in the country, so no light pollution, no airplanes (this obviously wasn't an airplane anyway), it is a relatively clear night, and it was well above the tree line, so I had a very clear view.
