Occurred : 11/17/2012 03:00 (Entered as : 11/17/12 3:00) Reported: 11/17/2012 3:42:21 AM 03:42 Posted: 11/19/2012 Location: Salt Lake, UT Shape: Light Duration: 90 minutes Characteristics: There were lights on the object
Bright orange lights hovering in the sky. I noticed a bright orange light in the sky. There was a slight cloud cover, but I could still see this orange light. I was not sure what it was so I watched it for a while. It appeared that another light and up to 2 more lights appeared and stayed together in the same area. They appear like a star but I have never seen stars or planets that are in this area that are orange. I work night shifts so I am awake at night. These lights are still there. I can distinctly see two of them. They are not moving. They appear to just be sitting in the same spot. I wondered if it was a reflection of some sort but I don't know of what. It almost has the color of fire in the sky. They appear to be definate points of light, like a star, but I have seen up to three of them, then it goes down to two or one. Right now I can see two. I will keep watching to see if I can figure out what this is. ((NUFORC Note: Possible sightings of stars?? PD))
