Moving lights over SpokaneThis report supplements my original report submitted 2/02/02. After submitting my report on 2/02, additional sightings of a more intensly lit object occured later in the evening. These objects appeared over the western edge of the city of Spokane. My vantage point is on a hill, aproximately 17 miles to the SE of Spokane.Last night, 02/04/02 the objects again appeared intermittently from about 7:30PM until about 11:00 PM. Usually, only one object was present at a time, but once three objects were visible - two over western Spokane, and one to the north. All were very bright, with the lights becoming very bright, then dimming etc., and each sighting lasting between 5 to 10 minutes. The predominate color of the lights was a yellowish /orange, but through my binoculars I could see flashing blue, red, and green. The objects would generally just appear, and after several minutes of being stationary, begin drifting to the North. At one point. a larger aircraft coming from the SE flew under one of the objects in sort of a zig-zag pattern, but then flew in a direction away from the civilian and military airfields. At the time the three objects were visible, the two objects which were close together moved in sort of a semi-circle pattern and exchanged general locations. At times the objects would move behind trees in my field of view, and then out again, so I know they are not stars or planets. They must be an aircraft of some type, and I hope to hect they are ours.I telephoned a friend who lives in Spokane. This person traveled a few blocks out to a point which has a clear view to the South, over downtown Spokane, and also to the West. My friend later described 2 brief glimpses of what was described as "a huge horizontal box that looked like a flourescent light " stationary in the sky, in the approximate areas of the civilian and military airports. My friend drove out to the airport area, but it was too foggy to see anything. I asked if it could be a helicoptor, but my friend said that a local medical holicopter was operating in the downtown area, and that could be heard clearly, but there was no sound in the direction of the large flourescent light.I have been an aircraft enthusiast all my life, and I have never observed anything like these lights. There has been no mention of any of this in the local newspaper or television.
