Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Each of the lights were round in shape, and from where we could see them, were about as large as the largest star or planet in the sky. Each was an orange-red color, and quite bright. They were all on the same "flight path" - one after another but we could tell they weren't part of the same "craft", they were individual "crafts". There were quite a few of them - maybe 20 or more - but by the time I saw them 5 could still be seen and there were no more coming from the north.

Size of Object(s)

Relative size - each light was about two or three handwidths away from the next light, and each light was about the width of one of my fingers, maybe 1/2 an inch. They seemed far away, and we could only see the lights, not the objects so I have no idea what the actual size was.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Our home, where we saw these from, is in an urban area, although we are on an acre. We are close to two highways and the Phoenix airport is 20 minutes to the north and west of us. These lights were not flying in the regular, or alternate, flight paths of planes and there are no special features around - just subdivisions.

Full Description & Details

At around 9:30 to 10:00 pm march 24, 2012, my husband had been outside to check on our septic tank which has been giving us problems. He happened to look in the sky as we have been watching the two planets lately and saw a number of orange lights "flying" - coming from the north and heading south-east. We have lived in the same location 17 years and know the flight paths of the planes - this was not one of them. He thought it was odd since their color was also not like an airplanes lights, and they were'nt really close to one another, but he could tell they were all similar, one after another. He watched for a while (possibly a few minutes) and then came into the house to get me. When I had located my shoes, and came outside, looking north I immediately saw one of the orange-red lights, but he directed me to look east, where there were 4 more moving south. They were individual lights - not all part of one object, and they seemed far away to me, although my husband thought they were like the height of what a helicopter would be. They weren't traveling extremely fast, as I watched for a few minutes and the last one (which was the first one I had noticed to the north) could still be seen. They also were not directly overhead, as we had to look east to see them. My husband expected more to come from the north, since he had already seen so many, one after another, but there were no more - he didn't keep count of how many he saw. I myself saw 5 in total, and thought they were almost a pink color, although mu husband decribed them as orange - and they were not flashing on and off and there were no other colors of light. Perhaps they were some military aircraft or something, but it was out of the ordinary and we didn't hear any sound from an aircraft.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

It was not natural like a star or planet - they were definately air "craft" of some sort, moving across the sky not overly fast, but at a good speed.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Since UFO stands for Unidentified Flying Object, of course I am aware there are many of these. If the question is if I think these, or any other UFO, is alien (from another planet) in it's origins, no - i never have, and I still don't. I do believe that many of the undentified things and happenings in this world could be spiritual beings, or "principalities" manifesting themselves, that the Bible talks about. We normally only see the physical things - but there are other "dimensions" to life.
