2 bright orange lights over Santa Rosa Ca.

June 23, 2012 My husband and I were walking our dogs tonight in Santa Rosa California, as we do every night at a school 5 miles west of town. At around 11:15 I was looking at the sky and noticed an unusually bright orange light approaching us from the south. I called to my husband to look and said “That’s not a plane is it?” It kept getting higher and closer and then changed direction and quickly started going to the east where it then disappeared.

A few minutes later we both saw another very large, bright orange light low coming up from the horizon in the west. It seemed to come towards us (we were east of it) and then rapidly ascended to the east at the same location where we saw the other one and disappeared also. They both seemed to have some sort of pulsing movement in the light.

There was no sound at all. When we saw the 2nd one I had an urge to hide as I thought it was coming toward us but it went up instead.

2 nights ago at the same place, probably more around 11:00pm, we also saw what we thought was a satellite moving rapidly across the sky from south to north (we are familiar with satellites and the space station moving across the sky as well as what planes and helicopters look like) as we were watching, It gave a big bright flash of white light and was gone! I don’t know what the heck is going on in the sky here right now but I’m keeping my eyes open and my wits about me!
