Two Hovering Aircraft Spotted Around a Strange Haze

Driving East on US Hwy 40 from Reelsville to Putnamville in West Central Indiana at approximately 7:50 pm my husband and I noticed a strange pinkish colored streak vertically through the sky. We commented on how it looked like a rainbow, smoke or a cloud. The streak didn’t move like smoke, didn’t have the same form as the few other clouds in the sky, and couldn’t be a rainbow for a number of reasons. We then joked about how it could be from a UFO.

Within a few minutes of the conversation, my husband noticed two aircraft heading toward the odd streak. He asked if I thought they were fighter planes doing drills together. We watched the aircraft and noticed they could not be planes as they weren’t moving across the sky, but hovering around the streak. There were distinctly two separate craft, but we could not tell how many lights were on them, just that they had pulsing lights that seemed to have a strobe effect and the lights moved together with the same rhythm and timing.

We continued to watch the lights on the craft for approximately 9 minutes until they disappeared behind the trees in the distance. We tried to take a picture with our cell phone camera but the quality was poor and just looked like two small lights in a dark sky. The haze did not appear at all.
