1999-09-25 - Las Vegas, NV - Disk

(Peter: we discussed this over the phone with you last Saturday). My husband and I were outside in our spa in South Las Vegas. At 11:08 we saw an orange illuminated round object approaching from the South. It flew directly above us and headed North/east.About one minute later we saw another coming from the same area as the first, again flew above us and off to the north. About two minutes passed, then the third appeared, this time from the south/slightly west. About 15 seconds later the 4th appeared, then another 15 seconds elapsed and the 5th appeared. The 4th & 5th came from the same direction as the first. There was a full moon that evening and clear visibility. In comparision to planes which we could see flying off to the east, the speed of these craft was 4X the speed of the planes. No more than one object was visible at the same time. It took each object 5 seconds to cross our line of vision. All objects left in the same north/east direction. I have contacted the local newspaper and found that a man called to report orange objects int he sky that Saturday, however the newspaper did not take a report or get a name/number. A woman called a local television station and reported seeing one round object at 3:30am on Sunday the 26th, again a name/number was not obtained.I went on a "well listened to" local radio station and discussed my sighting and asked to have others who also saw this call, there were no calls. I have also reported this to NIDS.
