No of observers: 2

Location: Great Falls, MT, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Animals reacted

A Very bright light was seen meandering and moving towards Belt, spotted near Malmstrom AFB, accompanied by smaller lights

Our dog became very excited and seemed desperate to go outside so we decided to take him out. He was pulling the leash and seemed to be trying to track something down with intensity. We went around a corner, and a huge bright light became visible in the sky. Once we were paying attention to it he seemed to calm down.

This light was far bigger than any star in the sky, and moved smoothly and seemed to meander around as it moved towards the direction of Belt, the movement reminded me more of a life form than an aircraft. It was so bright it was difficult to distinguish a shape, but it may have been diamond shaped or triangular. It eventually disappeared behind some trees and we were unable to find it again as we walked around.

We also noticed a few other lights moving in a similar fashion, but they were much further up and were much smaller from our observation point. There were also 2 shooting stars while we observed.

We are located very close to Malmstrom AFB. I watched one of the smaller ones from our back yard for another 2 minutes after we returned, and it eventually just disappeared.

The entire experience was maybe as long as 30 minutes over all but we only saw the very bright light for around 3-5 minutes.
