It has been 11 years since Arizonans saw something in the night sky that remains a topic of conversation to this day. On March 13, 1997, a swath orbs in a V shape known as the Phoenix Lights passed silently overhead. Sightings launched a debate that continues. Were they military flares, an unknown government experimental aircraft or something other-worldly? Dr. Lynne Kitei, a Paradise Valley physician, wrote a best-selling book on the Phoenix Lights, and was executive producer of an award-winning documentary about the subject. An updated version of the 80-minute documentary - with new information, new interviews and new footage - will be shown Sunday at the Harkins Shea 14 Theatre in Scottsdale. "It has been a labor of love and a work in progress since we started," Kitei said. The new versions includes interviews with Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell, who was the sixth man to walk on the moon. "He created or founded the organization, the Institute of Noetic Sciences, which combines science and spirituality, which has been my work in this right along with the Phoenix Lights," Kitei said. There is also an interview with a now-retired Phoenix Police Department 911 operator who fielded calls about the lights that night, confirming the sighting's timeline and sharing details provided by callers. "It also confirms that the police were very well aware of what was going on. They actually did some things that have never been shared before, which is exciting in itself," Kitei added. The documentary includes an interview with a commercial airline pilot, who along with his wife, saw the lights and said they were definitely not flares, and revelations by former Gov.

Fife Symington who witnessed the sighting. Kitei said UFO sightings have been accelerating worldwide thanks, in part, to technology, and she hopes that in her lifetime, the question who was the driving force behind the Phoenix Lights and other sightings will be answered. She said people are capturing sightings on their cell phones and are actually looking because they are more educated about the topic.

It seems I'm starting to hear more about Dr. Lynne Kitei, then I am about the Pheonix Lights whenever the topic is brought up.

I wonder how much money she has made off of the incident.

In this case...it was not from this world.

I was in the Rio Verde section of Scottsdale 2 years ago in April. I was visiting my friend Roseanne and her husband Dave. As we sat on the rear patiio to her house which looks out onto the Mountain range afar, Dave says, "Hey, Whats that" ? I looked up to see a flat row of lights going out.... one by one, from the left to the right, and then it was gone. I only caught the last 3 or 4 of them, but Dave said there was 5 lights. There was no reason for anything to be there in that location, and the only back drop to it was the mountain range behind them. No road where it could have been cars etc either.
The name of the Mountains evade my mind right now, but its National Park like preserve, so no cars. And not the terrain for them either. So not one doubt in my mind what we saw that night..... Looked just like this pic, but only one sided... Flat line of lights.....

i thought they proved that the phoenix lights were flares....

yes, yes they did (fast forward to 1:43)
