Location: Lehi, UT
Shape: Unknown
Duration: 30 mins
Characteristics: There were lights on the object, There were aircraft in the vicinity or aircraft chasing the object
Noticed a very bright star, but it suddenly faded completely dark. Reappeared and began filming. Recorded it fading to black again.

Went outside to fix some hanging lights that were on our balcony. My husband noticed the light and said “whoah what is that?”. We both assumed it was just a bright star so didn’t pay much attention. A few minutes pass and my husband then notices it’s gone. We thought that was weird and it could’ve just been a plane. As we continued to watch the area it was in, it reappeared. I began filming and got a total of about 25 minutes filming this object. It slowly moves around but the movements aren’t entirely obvious with the naked eye. Very slow movements. Upon zooming in on the video, you can clearly see there are several lights, sometimes flashing blue and randomly red.

When it fades out to black, it’s a very slow gradual fade. You can still see it up until it is completely dark. I recorded for a bit after the fade and it did not return as it did prior to filming.

* 1 plane passed by the object (caught on video not attached to this submission)
* irregular light flashing patterns
* very slow movement, unnoticeable to the naked eye
* was floating in the area for 30+ minutes
* spotted somewhat in the area of Skinwalker Ranch, UT
