NUFORC Sighting 147223

Occurred: 2019-06-24 20:00 Local
Reported: 2019-07-02 18:48 Pacific
Duration: 10-20 minutes

Location: Flagstaff, AZ, USA

Shape: Light

There was a bright light in the night sky that would appear, disappear and then reappear in a random pattern.

Standing on line to look through the main telescope at the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, several of us in the crowd observed a bright light in the night sky. It would shine for a few seconds, disappear then reappear a few seconds later in a different but nearby spot. The pattern seamed random and most people thought it was an conventional aircraft. I have spent decades around aviation, from propeller to jet to rockets and space shuttles. I know of no aircraft or natural phenomenon that could maneuver, disappear and reappear like this object. I observed the event 10-20 minutes.
