No of observers: 1

Location: Medford, OR, USA

Shape: Cone
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Color, Aircraft nearby

A cone shaped object with a long strip of lights that changed color, seen over Medford.

I was driving down a rural road in Medford, Oregon when I noticed 2 lights in the sky ahead of me. It is a very clear night.

I pulled over to see what they were. One was obviously a plane with a blinking light on it. The other one however was a what seemed to be a sort of cone shaped thing with one white light on the bottom and a strip of lights on the top part of it that would change colors from red, blue, green, and yellow.

The plane flew near it and then the object changed direction and flew over me (west to east) until it was out of sight.

The plane then flew in the opposite direction and then away from me (north).

The strange object seemed to be much bigger than the plane.
