Full Description & Details

We were all sitting out side and my brother noticed that in the sky there were 3 red lights. Upon first look we all thought they were just lights on top of an antenna tower. When we looked again we noticed that there were 3 red lights in a Triangle Formation. Then about 5 minutes after that they began to move, slowly, to form a diagonal line in the sky (bottom left, right middle, upper right). The lights stayed in that diagonal formation for about 5 minutes then the one in the middle started to move slowly towards the one on the upper right and they began to blink at each other. Shot fast blinks. Then slowly the upper right light blinked a few time and vanished. The one in the middle that was moving stopped and then began blinking with the bottom left light. The bottom left light then disappeared. Now there is only the one in the middle remaining. The lone red light begins to blink a little slower then disappears. That all took about a span of 15 - 20 minutes. While that was happening a few people called up friend around the area and asked them to look in the sky where they were. Everyone in the Orland area who was contacted saw the same.

After about 30 minutes of the lights being gone, another light appeared again. Every quipped that "The Aliens are back" and our attention was focused on the sky again. This light appeared where I would say the last light to disappear was last seen. The light continued to blink slowly with no movement and then in about 5 minutes disappeared again.

Other Comments

I know the difference between how satellites move in the night sky and what airplanes or helicopter lights look like. I don’t believe what we all saw were anything like that. Above all I would just like this story to be out there, this way I can find out what I actually saw. (If I'm told it's a weather balloon then why WOULDN'T I Believe it??? :) =0)
