Occurred : 7/11/2013 20:00 (Entered as : 07/11/13 20:00) Reported: 7/12/2013 7:40:22 AM 07:40 Posted: 7/14/2013 Location: Cedar Rapids, IA Shape: Triangle Duration: 1 minute
3 orange lights at dusk, moving in sync just over NW horizon, top two faded before bottom one. Heard a low boom, looked out the window and my wife said look at those three airplanes. we went out on the deck and agreed they were not airplanes. Three orange lights just over NW horizon, moved very slowly and perfectly in sync to the left or west. Top two lights in the triangle formation faded before the bottom one faded. Just at dusk, before stars were fully visible, very distinct, unique experience. Previously, didn't believe in things like this but I believe what we saw was real.
