Occurred : 4/11/2021 22:01 (Entered as : 04/11/21 22:01) Reported: 4/11/2021 10:19:56 PM 22:19 Posted: 4/23/2021 Location: Monticello, UT Shape: Formation Duration: 5 seconds Characteristics: There were lights on the object, There was an aura or haze around the object
Odd shimmering lights over Midwest Hi, I'm an amateur astrologist. On 04/11/2021 @ 2201 hrs, I was deciding on setting up equipment. Directly over head I notice a shimmering circle of stars. Looking very much like a heat mirage, only in the clear dark sky. Surrounding the shimmering were 8 'lights'? in a semi circle, moving uniformly together. White in color moving much quicker than night lights move. (2-3x more quickly). The lights traveled in a southern to northern direction. I have many apps to help with night sightings. All aircraft Flightradar24), satellites (Heavens Above) and many star charts. All the above showed no active. Total time was about 5 seconds and gone. Clearoutside.com reported my site with 10 miles visibility, new moon and Class 2 Bortle (0.18 mcd/m2) Of course, I was alone, but contacted you via phone. Steve
