Occurred : 10/21/2004 19:30 (Entered as : 10/21/1904 19:30) Reported: 10/26/2004 7:58:50 AM 07:58 Posted: 10/27/2004 Location: Portland, OR Shape: Light Duration: 2 minutes Characteristics: There were aircraft in the vicinity or aircraft chasing the object
Two stationary bright spots, fading simultaniously for no apparent reason becoming very diim spots of light. In the east northeast sky, above tree line I noticed two stars in a location I had never seen them before. They were bright and just a few degrees apart, stationary. I saw a plane fly over their location. As I looked at them, they simultaniously faded from view. I suspected that a dark thin cloud had gone in front of them, even though I could see a few spotty small clouds in the vicinity that were visiable, this one was not. So I went in, got my binoculars, viewed the area to see to very dim lights/stars in the location that I saw the two lights/stars. They were still there, but no cloud was in sight. I've gon back out several nights after, and I believe I can still see the two, but I'm not sure. Very strange. I look at stars often, these have not been there before.
