Strobing lights in sky seen near Liberty, Indiana

Report from MUFON: Date of event: April 29, 2011

“While returning home from Oxford, OH to Liberty, IN on Bath Rd. in Franklin City., IN, I was looking off to the right towards Liberty. I had been watching contrails from aircraft in a clear blue sky, which we had not seen in nearly a month.

The terrain is farmland with a few copses of trees and one can see the cell tower in Liberty, on US 27. While looking out towards that area, suddenly there were several teardrop flashes just above the trees in a straight-line trajectory moving from west to east, towards Oxford.

There were approximately five of them and to describe it, they moved so fast it was almost incomprehensible. Just as I remarked to my husband, they were gone. It was NOT the cell tower, but looked like the strobes at an airport.

There is an airport belonging to Miami University, however, it was to the left and about 5 miles behind us. Further, they do not have those types of strobes. These were silver-blue teardrop shapes. It was really hard to describe, though. No, I did not think it was a tower.

I am on that road virtually every day and know every nook and cranny of it. It looked like the strobes on a runway and very much like an LED light.

To describe what I felt? Freaked out. Gave me a creepy feeling. It or they seemed to have just disappeared behind us into the sky.

It was still light out, too.”
