PHOENIX -- On March 13, 1997, a mysterious formation of lights was spotted above the Valley and across much of the state.

People who saw the formation said it was miles long and wide. Weeks later, Dr. Lynne Kitei said the military passed off the event as flares from a military training exercise. Kitei didn't buy the explanation then or now.

"You can only think that they were pushed to come up with something," the Valley physician said.

Kitei said to this day there is no clear-cut answer to what she and thousands of others witnessed.

"A formation of lights attached to something or an actual craft."

Kitei runs a website dedicated to the lights mystery, has written extensively on the subject and produced a documentary, "Phoenix Lights: We Are Not Alone," which will be shown Sunday at 1 p.m. at the Scottsdale Harkins Shea at 75th Street and Shea Boulevard.

    A few years ago they busted the guy releasing lamps hung from ballons connected by string. Nobody wanted to connect the dots.

    Arrive on earth to show us their superior technology - Some incandescent running lights and the ability to hover in place...? I don't think so. Better evidence would have been an unnaturally fast moving vessel, or a highly choreographed formation. The better question is, with such high technology - why wouldn't the visitors have used some kind of cloak? Or at least turned off their lights. Bogus.

    When you consider...
    ... the vast distance of space and the amount of time it would take for a ship to get here (thousands upon thousands of years), then the question of whether we are alone in the universe or not is irrelevant. The distance is too great to matter.

    Two events
    But the news outlets only talk about the straight line of lights that appeared to set behind the White Tanks. I feel those were flares, as stated by an east coast military outfit later. What about the reports of a delta-shaped craft that crossed the entire state from north to south at incredible speed? Why isn't that talked about? There was at least one commercial airline pilot who saw that formation, along with hundreds of other people. Space visitors? I don't think so, but I do think a test of some really "out there" technology by our Gov't. is highly likely.
