Blue flashes/orbs/dancing lights Series of 5 soft electric blue flashes in northern sky over 1 hr duration. I deliberately set alarm to awake in the early morning to watch the sky away from the city. Lots of pulsating ‘stars’ and odd pattern movement by orbs/lights. (Obvious human aircraft with blinking lights were out circling the skies probably researching the orbs and flashes) I heard jets too. There was similar activity in the early morning skies the day before as well, but no airplanes or jets were out. I watched the sky for hours both nights and seen dozens of zig- zagging orbs, but these flashes were new & uncommon to an avid sky watcher. Also- owls, geese, locusts & crickets didn’t portray any unusual behavior during my witnessing. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD))
