No of observers: 2

Location: Tallahassee, FL, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aircraft nearby

2 nights of bright as the moon object and 5 aircraft in night sky after seeing it.

On the night of June 29, 2015, I saw a very bright light next to a western star. This light did not appear to move. I was driving and turned away from it heading to a local pub. The bouncer said he saw the same thing in he western sky at 21:45. I saw it at 22:00.

Tonight on June 30, 2015, I was driving again and saw the same light. Except this time I was able to watch it for a good 15 minutes while I was stopped and at traffic lights. This light was still next to a small star in the sky but the this time I saw this light fade in and out. When the light went out it was just a faint gray dot in the sky. The light would come back on gradually to get brighter and brighter.

I made it to my destination and told everybody what I had just seen for the last two nights. They (my family) wanted to go outside to see "it". The only thing we got to see is a bunch of aircrafts flying in formation. Three in formation 1 flying off in opposite direction with fast blinking lights at odd speeds. And one very normal plane going to the airport off from the others. For a total of 5 planes at the same time around the time of 22:10.

NUFORC Note:

We strongly suspect that the two bright objects in the northwestern sky were Venus and Jupiter. PD
