Strange Lights Over Central Kansas

A few nights ago, my friend and I were by the interstate, having some fun chatting with truckers on a CB/ham radio. While he was adjusting the antenna on his truck, I got out to join him. As I was admiring the sky and the stars, I was trying to spot a castle on a nearby hill when I noticed what looked like a star suddenly vanish.
Curious, I kept watching, and that’s when more white dots started to appear. They weren’t flashing and didn’t show up on any flight radar. As we continued to observe, I saw a plane fly past these dots, and then one of the lights shot up toward the plane before dropping back down several times. At one point, three of the lights formed a vertical line and then moved about a mile away. Soon after, it seemed like there were about 20 lights visible, but they gradually disappeared until only three remained. These last three formed a triangle, with the point facing upwards, and began to rotate slowly.
What was particularly strange was that they made no noise and exhibited none of the flight characteristics typical of aircraft or drones that I’ve seen before. It was truly surreal! My friend and I decided to drive a couple of miles closer to get a better look, but by the time we arrived, they were gone.
Has anyone else ever witnessed something like this?
That sounds like an incredibly intriguing experience! It’s not every day someone witnesses something so unusual in the sky. The way you described the lights behaving—forming shapes and moving in patterns—definitely raises questions.
Many people have reported seeing similar phenomena, often leading to speculation about UFOs or other unexplained aerial activity. The fact that they weren’t visible on flight radars and made no noise is particularly strange.
It’s also worth considering that such sightings can sometimes be attributed to atmospheric conditions, astronomical events, or even military exercises in the area. Have you looked into any reports from others in the area that night? Sometimes, if it was a widespread sighting, local news or social media can provide additional context or insights from others who witnessed the same thing.
Regardless, it sounds like an unforgettable night! If you do hear more from other witnesses or find out what might have caused those lights, I’d love to hear about it!
