2014-11-01 - Bloomingdale, IL - Light

Three lights, 2 bright then grew dim. All disappeared.

I was walking outside to my car and noticed a large bright light in the sky to the East. I saw a dim light to the right of it at a good distance and a dim light to the left and up higher at a distance. It appeared to be an obtuse triangle perhaps. I thought it was an unusual star formation perhaps.

The light to the right of the bright light grew brighter and larger. I continued to watch it for 20 seconds or so as it grew larger. When it reached the brightness and scale of the star to the left I thought it unusual. After about 15 seconds the two lights began to grow dim.

After growing dim over about 15 seconds, all three of the lights were gone.

I thought it could be a few aircraft, but being in the aviation field, the day, the time of year and the time of observation, I firmly believe it could not be any sort of aircraft going to O'Hare International Airport. Traffic going to O'Hare is very little on a Saturday at 7PM this time of year. It was unlike anything that I have ever personally seen.
