It was someone that had flares on balloons that they released. It was all a hoax.

This time it wasn't in a V-shape :><: . It was what seemed like a couple of light orbs floating in the sky.

I think I linked the wrong article. The lights re-appered monday the 21st. There is video footage of it.

Also, the lights stay still sometimes. and Sometimes they shift to form different shapes. So I think:

-Flares don't have any way of moving into distict shapes, then stop moving.
-Plans must keep moving to stay in the air.

I don't know though, I'm not a doctor.

Also, the airforce said it had no planes in the area. Some people who saw the event said they also saw U.S. Military planes chase after the objects.

I don't know. Look it up.
I don't think it was anything obvious. But yes it was a U.F.O. (Technically :P )

UFO = unidentified flying object, meaning it could be anything

unidentified cloud, unidentified plane, unidentified weather balloons = UFOs

My girlfriend's sister ran around the house screaming "aliens" like a freaking idiot... I believe it was just a hoax like lil-inferno said.

In Phoenix, the polution has darkened the sky to an extent where practically no stars are visible. As a balloon travels in the air, the only reason you can tell that it is moving is because its size changes in comparison with the sky. At night, you cannot see where the balloon is. If there is wind (which there was that day), then the balloon can drift while still moving up. At night -- and with a flare attatched --, it appears as though the object has stopped moving.

There is the most reasonable explination I can draw at 10:00 pm.

If you knew it was a could, it wouldn't be unidentified. If you know it was a plane, it wouldn't be unidentified. If you knew it was a Weather balloon, it wouldn't be unidentified.

Apparently a kid admitted to doing it though. As a prank. Flares attached to weather balloons. Although, his story doesn't really match up with the people who saw it's story.

I.E. he said he only did it for 15 minutes, most of the people saw it for more than 30. Maybe he just wants attention, but it probably was a hoax. You guys really have no imagination :( .

Yeah... people are dumb if you haven't realized and most peoples' perception of time is skewed -- even with a clock.

I know... I was just saying if it was a plane and they didn't know what it was, it'd be an UFO. If it was a cloud and they didn't know what it was, it'd be an UFO. If it was a weather balloon and they didn't know what it was, it'd be an UFO.
