Orange orbs in the sky, rotating around each other in Hugo, Minnesota.

Specific location from which the event was observed: Latitude 45.152246 Longitude -92.930474 While driving north on the ~13600 block of Isleton Avenue, I noticed 3 bright orange/yellow orbs suspended along the northern treeline.

As I and the motorist behind me both pulled over to witness the event, another 4 orbs appeared, and the orbs began to move around each other in the form of a spiral, or double helix. One orb remained stationary during this time.

We observed the event for about 5 minutes after pulling over. All of the orbs faded away into the night sky, while the stationary object stayed for another 5 minutes.

This stationary object then vanished from sight quite rapidly.

I filmed the event via cellphone from my car during the initial 30 seconds of the sighting, then for another minute while I watched with the other motorist.

I have the two short videos in .mp4 format if you would like them.

NUFORC Note:

We spoke with the witness, and he seemed to us to be sincere and sober-minded. We will request a copy of the video. PD
