Lights over Indianapolis. They have been flying erratically for more than an hour.

The following submission statement was provided by user u/STMartin778 :

My brother sent me this in addition to several other photos and videos. He lives in Indianapolis, Indiana. It doesn't look like a star-shaped connection, it seems that they intersect and hang overhead. They were there for more than an hour while he saw them. I haven't found anyone talking about it yet, so I'm writing here to see if anyone knows anything.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Light sources on clouds

Lasers, searchlights, car headlights and other light sources of sufficient power can form a column of light in a dusty or foggy atmosphere, various patterns on low clouds, fog or haze. Also, the rays can highlight parts of the cloud, objects or birds, giving them bizarre shapes.

Searchlights can shine with one beam, several. They can be stationary, move, and also form spinning carousels on the clouds, which can change shape and color.

It often seems that the light source is located at the point where the beam hits the cloud, and not vice versa.

Investigation

Versions testing, their confirmation or refutation. Additional information, notes during the study of materials
