Occurred : 1/2/2014 17:30 (Entered as : 01/02/14 17:30) Reported: 1/2/2014 6:22:24 PM 18:22 Posted: 1/10/2014 Location: Austin, TX Shape: Circle Duration: 30 minutes Characteristics: There were aircraft in the vicinity or aircraft chasing the object
Light on top left of moon, followed by white lights and jets As I was driving up to my sister's house, I noticed the young moon was visible on the rest of the surface, so when my girlfriend and I arrived, we went to go look from the yard. Suddenly we were amazed to find a flashing light to the upper left of the moon. I am not talking about Venus to the lower right. We stared at this light flash red, white, then seem to flare a beam off either at or directly away from the moon, occasionally going out for a second at a time. After about 10 minutes of this we noticed a few jets flying excessively fast, and extremely loud. These were not commercial, and had strange/irrelevant flashing patterns. We watched them cross our visible sky within a minute and one in particular changed directions 3 times . Due north, due east, then due west. Right after this we saw several strange objects, planes or otherwise, all heading due north. We started looking to the south and saw two, non-blinking perfectly white circles. Going in straight lines, then vanishing. One went north east, and the first went north north-east.

Light on top left of moon, followed by white lights and jets

As I was driving up to my sister's house, I noticed the young moon was visible on the rest of the surface, so when my girlfriend and I arrived, we went to go look from the yard. Suddenly we were amazed to find a flashing light to the upper left of the moon. I am not talking about Venus to the lower right. We stared at this light flash red, white, then seem to flare a beam off either at or directly away from the moon, occasionally going out for a second at a time.

After about 10 minutes of this we noticed a few jets flying excessively fast, and extremely loud.

These were not commercial, and had strange/irrelevant flashing patterns. We watched them cross our visible sky within a minute and one in particular changed directions 3 times .

Due north, due east, then due west.

Right after this we saw several strange objects, planes or otherwise, all heading due north.

We started looking to the south and saw two, non-blinking perfectly white circles. Going in straight lines, then vanishing. One went north east, and the first went north north-east.
