Duration: 3-4 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Durham, NC, USA

Shape: Light


3 bright lights over Durham

I had just stepped out of my car in the parking lot of a restaurant. I glanced up into a very clear sky and was immediately stopped in my tracks by the sight of 2 "stars" approx. 3 finger widths apart, just below Cassiopiea. Being an avid sky watcher, I KNEW that those 2 stars did not belong there. I turned and walked about 5 steps back to my car, so as to brace myself against a stationary object to try and see if they moved. In the 2-3 seconds it took to walk that far, when I turned back to look at them, they had dimmed considerably, and were slowly moving, this time the 2 had become 3 points of light and were slowly moving together. They appeared to be extremely high up. No sound. I am positive they were not balloons, chinese lanterns, airplanes, satellites. No idea what they were. It was just amazing, seeing this show in the sky and knowing it was something unusual and out of the ordinary.
