| Strange lights near Gila Bend, AZ. 07 October 2006 On October 6, 2009 18 miles west of Gila Bend, AZ on I-8 looking south we saw strange lights, 2 and 3 at a time, they appeared to burn out then relight but were not dropping or moving like flares. Seemed to be almost stationary .the lights would go out and relight miles to the east or west. A few times we saw strings of five or more way off in the distance. This went on for about an hour around 20:00 pst. Was wondering if maybe border patrol has some kind of illumination suspended by balloon? These lights did not to appear to come from the ground, rather they just appeared. Sometimes they seemed to dim before disappearing, other times they just blinked out instantly. The re-appearance was always sudden with no trails leading up to them, and always in the same area. There was no discernable sound from these lights, At one point, two fighter jets appeared in the area. These jets were accompanied by sound and were obviously moving. Upon the appearance of the jets, the mysterious lights disappeared. They did not reappear until the jets had left the area at which time the lights reappeared in the same area. There were times when only one light was visible and another light seemed to project out of the initial light. We did take pictures but they are not good. |
