Occurred: 2011-06-13 22:21 Local
Reported: 2011-06-14 17:40 Pacific
Duration: 6 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Leavenworth, WA, USA

Shape: Triangle


Bright triangular shape changing direction and moving irregularly.

Arrived from a South-Westerly direction, headed South-East. It was a steady, bright yellowish light, moving swiftly, leaving no contrail. The level did not coincide with that of airplanes or satellites, in that it appeared closer. In addition, the mass appeared larger and brighter. It was originally headed slightly to our left, in a gentle arc. After four minutes, it changed direction, heading directly away. There was a slight zigzagging as it receded. Triangular shape based on our observance point depending on its varied trajectory. Two fragile, yet steady points of light emitting from upper planes of triangle when viewed from below (prior to direction change) Left sight at 10:27 pm, still heading South East at our best estimation.
