We saw two bright lights traveling SE of Alturas. Both bright orange-yellow lights, bigger than a plane, almost as big as a the moon, keeping together. We followed it, moving very slowling SE. They were not shooting stars, planes or landing lights. Bottom light went out first, then a few minutes later the top one went out.

Two bright lights, almost as big as the moon. Moving very slowly, close together. THey were not planes or landing lights, we are certain. They were orange-yellow in color, very bright. Sky was clear. No clouds or planes around. Moon was cresent shape opposite the UFOs. I was not able to take any pictures.

My husband saw it first and he got me to go look at it. We tried to chase it, but it dissappeared.
