http://www.examiner.com/homeland-security-in-los-angeles/strange-sighting-over-yucca-valley-puzzles-locals Unusual circular lights hovered over the city of Yucca Valley, California, for 10 minutes on July 21, 2011, from 10:33 PM until 10:43 PM.

In a dark desert sky, the glowing orbs remained at approximately the same altitude the entire time they were visible. It appeared as though they were slightly moving to align with each other.

These unidentified reddish-orange orbs conjured up images of the 1997 "Phoenix Lights" sighting, featured by the History Channel, although they appeared in a different configuration.

The glowing lights with a reddish outline appeared oval in shape at one point, just before they finally lined up. The remaining circle brightly glowed in the sky and then disappeared into the darkness of the night.
