11/17/09 18:07 West Lebanon NH amber globes coming on and fading at the same rate in sequence in a straight line with no sound

I am a Kitchen Designer. Leaving work, walking across the parking lot, I looked up at the sky as usual. I saw an amber colored, round light. I heard no sound. First I thought it was a far off plane coming in for a landing. (Lebanon Airport is on a hill right behind my job site) then this light faded as another came on. This was in a straight line, so I thought the plane was banking and I was seeing the other wing. Then another light came on at the same rate as the second one faded, still in this straight line, at about a 35 degree angle to horizon from right to left. still no sound. I realized this was not a plane. They were not flares being dropped. Flares don't remain stationary.

Since it was dark, and the lights of the parking lot were on, I couldn't see a craft. The lights repeated this pattern at least 6 times. I am not sure how far away these lights were from my position, but they were low in the sky.

I stopped a coworker to show him just before the display ended. He was as baffled as I was. We could hear a plane take off from the airport. It flew over us at this time. There was still no sound coming from the direction of the lights.

I got into my car and drove out of the parking lot and onto the highway as fast as I legally could. I wanted to get away from the parking lot lights. Looking in the direction the lights were, I saw nothing unusual, just stars, the sky was clear.
