Duration: 60 seconds
No of observers: 3

Location: Albany, NY, USA

Shape: Triangle

5 to 6 orange glowing lights upstate NY disappeared/ triangle.

2330 hours upstate ny leaving a friend's house looked up saw 5 to 6 yellow low level (maybe a mile and a half up)its hard to tell distance but much closer then the moon.

I called to my friend and said look at that and he stated that they where just floating balloons with candles attached,it was at this point I began to think he might be right until all but three lights disappeared and the last 3 where in perfect triangle formation.I stated to my friend that the triangle looks weird and no sooner did i say it one of the lights passed between the other to lights at twice the speed the leading light then disappeared and the last to lights disappeared at or about the same location .when I say triangle formation my guess is that the lights where about 50 yards from each other,I have never seen anything like it before.
