NUFORC Sighting 69536

Occurred: 2009-04-04 21:00 Local
Reported: 2009-04-04 22:39 Pacific
Duration: Ten minutes
No of observers: 3

Location: Flagstaff, AZ, USA

Shape: Light

We saw an orange light moving around in the sky and going out twice, for about ten minutes.

We were in a parking lot, about to get into our car and go home, when I looked up and saw an orange light in the sky. I thought that it might be a planet, as it was too big to be a star, and it wasn't white or yellow- closer to red or orange. The sky was completely clear, and as we were looking at the light, we noticed that it was moving slightly, back and forth. Then, it went out completely for a few seconds, and flickered back to light. We drove back home, assigning the person in the backseat to "keep an eye" on the light, and watched it until it disappeared behind Mt. Eldon.
