NUFORC Sighting 126952

Reported: 2016-04-21 11:03 Pacific
Duration: 3 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Florence, CO, USA

Shape: Disk
Characteristics: Lights on object

Gray, disk shaped with red and white flickering lights around the edge. 4 Orange lights on the bottom.

Not positive about the time, but usually close my curtains around 8-9pm. I usually look for the moon before closing my curtains.

That night, I happened to see a disk shaped, gray object flying maybe 200' off the ground, heading in a NNE direction. It had red and white twinkling lights around the outer edge. It had 4 orange lights on the bottom. One kept going out and flickering, like it was not working properly. The speed was similar to a small plane.

When it was near the Supermax prison the lights from the prison were bright enough that I could see 3 rounded projections on top of the craft. I ran to get my camera, but when I got back to the door about 10 seconds later, I couldn't see it anywhere. The guards at the prison should have been able to see it.

I'm a little confused as to why they didn't report this.
