Tribute report: "3 vulgar amber lights tender thoughtfully from south to north "In the function of drifting south on Garry Oaks Corner in Citrus Heights at 8:30PM, I spotted 3 very vulgar lights in the sky speedy of me. The lights were amber/orange in color. I watched for a sec and then pulled over to get a advanced come into view. The lights were drifting from south to north and approved austerely off my disappeared side. I was parked at approximately: N38 42.558 W121 15.720."The same as I first spotted the lights, they were at an exploratory sort of 170 degrees from my situation at an boundary of nearly 25-30 degrees aristocratic the horizon. They were 3 self-ruling lights and were drifting as one, while not in a steady formation. I consequence the optical shin up of the lights to be at least -4 or brighter. Their subtle eclectic and they seemed to sporadically unexpected result sort, but maintained a interconnected south-to north route across the sky. Popular think about, they assorted positions related to moreover other. They sky was clear and I may possibly see the star limb among and deceased the lights. I consequence the plane of the objects to be among 500-1000 feet AGL. I was able to cart video of the object movement on my demonstrating call."Based on the swiftness and movement of the objects, I marina they were one group of aircraft, but they did not move close a genre helicopter or fixed-wing aircraft. Their routine was senior close an ultralight. I may possibly not see any wingtip navigation (red/green) lights. I may possibly sporadically make out one outline to one of the objects, but not soundly satisfactory to convey it."The same as the lights were point across from me (east of my situation), their boundary was nearly 40-45 degrees aristocratic the horizon. They continued on a northerly route, strictly in the posture of the urban of Rocklin. I disappeared the area what the objects were low to the horizon to the north, austerely aristocratic rooftop amount from my platform. Utterly think about time was I imagine 5-10 report."Paddock (source: mufon)
