Light over Potsdam, NY

The report, as filed

In the sky southeast of Potsdam appeared an orange light that would disappear and reappear (think like a steady 3 to 4 second pulse) in the sky. As it reappeared each time, it was appearing the same distance apart. The movement was not natural or aerodynamically explained (definitely not a plane or helicopter). I pulled over to get a better look and it stopped. Drove home from that point (about 4 minutes) and had 2nd witness outside meeting me. Upon looking South it started again then stopped again for about 30 seconds. No further sighting after that. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
