Bit outside my usual territory - I'm primarily an EVP and poltergeist man - but this has been nagging at me enough that I figured I'd ask here.
My cousin lives out in Chandler, Arizona and rang me Thursday completely rattled. She described three amber-ish lights in a slow triangular formation, absolutely silent, drifting roughly north before just... stopping. No noise, no navigation strobes, nothing that would suggest conventional aircraft. She had her phone out but the footage is basically useless - just dark sky with three smudges, which I know is the eternal frustration with this stuff.
What's getting me is the stopping. She said it held position for a good 90 seconds before the lights individually faded out rather than moving away. That detail feels significant.
A few questions for people more versed in UAP than me:
Is this formation consistent with previous Phoenix sightings? I know the 1997 event involved similar geometry, Could military flares account for the fading-out behaviour, or does that explanation feel lazy here?, Anyone actually there Thursday with better equipment? Even a halfway decent dashcam recording would be something
I run a Zoom H6 for my EVP sessions so I'm reasonably comfortable analysing audio anomalies, but visual evidence analysis is genuinely not my strong suit. If anyone has footage I'm happy to look at it critically rather than just getting excited.
Genuinely curious whether this matches what others saw or if my cousin just caught a drone display nobody's talking about.
