NUFORC Sighting 76095

Occurred: 2010-07-03 20:50 Local
Reported: 2010-07-03 23:53 Pacific
Duration: 3 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Mesa, AZ, USA

Shape: Oval
Characteristics: Lights on object

Oval object in the sky splits into three sections of light and start to rotate clockwise while moving to the west in Mesa, AZ.

I was facing south when I saw an oval light object in the sky. The object was not moving too fast that I could not make out what it was. After about thirty seconds the oval light split into what appeared to be three sections and was rotating in a clockwise direction. There was also a smaller red dot light above it.

The object was moving slightly north and coming from the south. It then began to move to the west and slightly to the south again. After about three minutes total it was too far for us to see anymore because there were trees in the way.

I compared the object to air planes and helicopters around the area after the sighting and it was larger and not comparable to the lights of our aircraft. If you can look at a full moon and picture a sliver of the middle and slightly smaller, that would be about the size of this object.
