3 Red Lights over Tinley Park, IL 8/21/04

3 red pulsating lights observed in the southeast sky over TInley Park guessing they were over 171st St and Harlem Ave.? We are at 171st and 94th Ave. From our view they appeared one above the other with a third light further south. They slowly moved to form a perfect diagonal line, then one by one they just disappeared. We watched for about 20 - 30 minutes. Then, a few minutes later we saw one red light reappear and this time it only lasted a minute or so, then disappeared. Have read other reports and see many descriptions of the lights forming a triangle. I would guess these sitings are more directly underneath the lights than we were. The whole time they pulsated - getting brighter and softer. With binoculars they looked like lights with rays coming off the top and sides but that could be due to the binoculars. Who has video of this?? Did anyone see news reports?
