Bright orb expelling red lights over western U.S. valley
A federal law enforcement agent observed a bright circular orb-like light that expelled three or four red lights in formation over a valley in October 2023. The process repeated approximately five times over 4 hours, with red lights remaining stationary above the southern horizon.
“At approximately 1900 hours, I obse1ved a bright circulai· orb-like light approximately 35-45 degrees above the n01thern/no1theastern horizon. Originally, the light was not dissimilar to that of a luminescent planet obse1ved in the night sky but grew slowly brighter. The bright orb-like light had a smaller red orb-like light within it. As the bright orb-like light grew lai·ger, it expelled three or four red lights from it. The red lights accelerated instantly and maneuvered with perfect, smooth coordination into a horizontal fonnation.”
