Location: Salida, CO, USA

Shape: Light

Bright light with no sound passed above us

We were laying around a camp fire just northwest of salida when my buddy pointed something up at the sky.When I looked up I saw a bright light which looked like venus during sunset, or sunrise moving across the sky. My first thought is to look for the typical signs of an airplane. Flashing lights, and the typical sounds you hear when a plane is flying overhead. Well none of these were there and as this light passed over us there were three other lights behined this that were i guess you could call it sparkling. Again there was no noise. All of a sudden these lights were gone as soon a they appeared. About a minute later an actual airplane flew over with all signs of an airplain. Strobe lights and the sounds of the engiune. Pretty much confirming what we saw before that was not normal.
