Duration: 3 mins
No of observers: 0

Location: Croydon (UK/England), , United Kingdom

Shape: Other
Characteristics: Lights on object

Moving lights across the sky, pair and triangular.

In the early hours of New Years Day 1/1/09 (2.10 am) I looked out of my window. I saw two lights in the sky-very high up and moving along together at the same speed. They appeared as glowing orbs red/orange and as they moved over the house I saw one shoot up higher followed by the second when it reached the same point then they disappeared from sight.

As I looked back to where I had first seen them three more lights were moving across the sky in the same direction. Again the lights kept the same distance apart moving at the same speed. They were the same colour and similar size. When the three lights reached the same point as the two lights they disappeared. I went to the front of the house to see if they had passed over but they were nowhere to be seen. It must have taken about 2 minutes plus from the first sighting.

The strange thing about the orbs was that they maintained the same size, brightness and distance as they moved across the sky.

I have never seen this kind of thing before. I do live about 500 feet above sea level and the sky is often clear with many stars visible on a clear night.

I have photos.
