Location: Norman, OK, USA

Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Emitted beams

An oval light appeared over the moon, shined a beam of light over Lake Thunderbird, and then streaked off.

I was at Lake Thunderbird on the outskirts of Norman recording some sound for a video piece I was working on. At around 11:30 pm I saw a light that was nearly in the direct center of the moon from where I was looking at it. The light was oval shaped and every so often a smaller flash of light would blink around it. After only a second or two a beam extended down from the oval shape and shined on the water below. It rested for maybe another second and then streaked off too fast for the eye to follow. I remember feeling nauseated by the fact that I was there alone. I got in my car and left immediately.
