No of observers: 0

Location: Lexington, OH, USA
Location details: Mansfield, Ohio

Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object

Took photos. Lights on it. stayed in one spot 20 min then moved slightly then gone. They also appear to have a red light.

I thought it was low flying aircraft at first so watched. They did not move. They both appear identical, white light on them with a red in more the middle. They appear to be about 500' high. I could not tell for sure or if my eyes were just playing tricks on me, but thought they moved slightly a few times, but staying in the same area. I called a funeral home near it to see if they were flying balloons as they had before at the advice of a neighbor. I told her I doubted this could possibly be it, as it was large like a plane. When I went to look again after about 30 minutes, they had moved away quite a lot. There is no sound of an aircraft. I took photos but it is impossible to tell what I am seeing as 1 is blurry. There appears to be a haze around the object in the photo.

NUFORC Note:

Photo consistent with positions of Venus and Jupiter.
