Reported: 2008-08-26 21:17 Pacific
Duration: 10 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Eureka, NV, USA

Shape: Light

Flashing red lights performing in an unusual manner.

Flashing red lights like airplane lights. Two lights appeared in north north west about a hand width apart at arms lenght. They traveled about 10 degrees across sky until they met, then disappeared. Two more flashing red lights then appeared travelling east about a hand width apart.

They then met after moving about 10 degrees, then disappeared.

Then two more flashing red lights similarly to the west of where the last two disappeared. They too moved about 10 degrees, met and disappeared.

Could be airplanes, but an awful lot of them in a normally quiet area and acting very strange. They appeared to be 20 to 50 miles away and somewhat lower than airliners fly.

I am a 69 year old retired builder-mechanic.
