Occurred : 12/21/2006 20:18 (Entered as : 12/21/2006 20:18) Reported: 12/21/2006 8:16:46 PM 20:16 Posted: 2/1/2007 Location: Maricopa, AZ Shape: Light Duration: 10 minutes
Stationary Orange Lights Saw two bright lights - pulsing orangish/red. They were stationary in the sky, no smoke trails. Then a third light appeard about 5 minutes later, making a traingular pattern. Shortly after that, a fourth light appeared equidistant from the first two lights. Then the third light split into two more lights, making a total of 5 lights. The two lights that split came back to one, and the fourth light disappeared. The three remaining lights all remained stationary and ever initially seeing the lights at 8:18pm, they disappeared at 8:28pm. The lights were very similar to what I observed on 12/6, except instead of being southwest of Maricopa, AZ, the lights were over the Gila River Indian Reservation, inbetween the Estrella mountains and Tablerock Mesa.
