| An optical illusion, not a UFO My wife and I looked at Mars saw small red and white lights flashing on and off quickly. The lights were very close to Mars (within its "halo") and below Mars, from the 4:00 position to the 7:00 position. I called our son, who lives 6 miles away, and he saw Mars but did not see the lights. I suspect that the lights were some sort of an optical illusion. The sky was clear, and the ground temperature was 54 degrees Farenheit. There was a full moon to the upper right of Mars, and the night sky was very bright. ((NUFORC Note: We do not know what the witness was observing, but if they had been stars, the son also should have been able to see them from his vantage point. PD)) |
