Three rotating lights over Gillette, Wyoming, and Colstrip, Montana (2019-2026)
Sommer Chase of Gillette, Wyoming, has filmed three lights rotating in a triangular pattern on evening walks since June 2026. Her husband Cody, a coal miner, first saw similar lights in 2019 on night shift at the Westmoreland mine in Colstrip, Montana, and she saw them there in 2022. They say the lights do not move like satellites or hum like drones. MUFON Wyoming's state director reviewed the footage and has no explanation.

Plausibility weighs how well an account fits where secrecy hides the documents by design, so missing records never count against it. Strength measures what is documented. Assessed 2026-11-06.
