Light over Tucson, AZ

The report, as filed

I was looking outside my balcony to the north foothills in Tucson, Az. A several mile length across the range of the mountains I saw at first soft focus white lights, almost like fireflies. About 10 of them, then perhaps 20-30 more flashing on and off intermittently. Then the white lights appeared to blink on and off in a kind of photon white blue, very bright. Back and forth randomly blinking on and off or just holding position these lights sprinkled on and off. Then some white lights appeared to streak across the air in front of the mountain range back and forth very fast. Some of the lights appeared to leave momentary trails of white behind as they zoomed across the sky. Then some of the blue lights, about 3 or 4 of them to the left blinked on a bright vibrant transparent light above them and looked like a dome shape. On and off very quickly ... then the blue lights appeared to have a brilliant red light right next to or within it. The lights danced across the foothills up down all around in various areas. Then some of the red lights had beams of red light flash on and off here and there. To my visible eye, these beams were only a couple of inches long beaming down, but could have been yards or more. I have never seen anything like this in my lifetime. The strangest thing is that to my eyes these flashes of light would have all appeared separate. But this morning I awoke and had the strongest impression and feeling that this was ONE invisible craft like a long almond shape, where all this was taking place. All these lights stayed within this one area, flashing on and off. If it was a craft it had to be miles long.
