White Lights Moving Strangely in the Sky

We were flying from Las Vegas to Toronto on WS 1119. While we were flying south of Minneapolis, our pilots noticed strange lights flying around directly ahead of us.

I, as a flight attendant, went up to the flight deck to check it out.

While I was in the flight deck, we all witnessed this strange phenomenon. There were objects in the sky that would shine brightly and fade out only to then reappear in a different spot in the sky. The colour they would shine was dim white to very, very bright white. At times, they would disappear completely and come back in a different spot.

There were up to four objects. They were flying around: up, down, around one another.. They formed a triangle at one point. They chased each other at times.

We used a star ahead of us as a marker where the activity was. The star, obviously didn’t move, but the objects were moving and flying around.

We thought it could be satellites but there was no predictable pattern to their movement.

We estimated that they were flying much higher than us and definitely at a much higher altitude than a commercial aircraft could fly. We were basically flying at top altitude of Boeing’s 737-800.

Other pilots in the area also noticed the lights as we communicated with them on a radio frequency.

I, myself, was in the flight deck for about twenty minutes and they were very active during this time. My colleague also went to view this phenomenon and he witnessed the activity as well.

People who witnessed this: WS 1119 x two pilots, WS 1119 x two flight attendants, and other airline pilots in the area.

As it was dark, we could not take a video. Instead we took photos one after the other. When scrolling through the photos in sequence, you can see the movement of these bright lights.

Th captain used his DSLR camera to take photos, which he scrolled through, and we filmed on iPhone.
