During an otherwise tranquil evening in Cabo San Lucas, Baja California Sur, Mexico, I noticed something extraordinary unfolding against the dusk sky. Around 6:15 PM on April 20th, 2013, as the moon began its ascent, eleven small, white dots seemed to revolve gently around its glowing surface. The formation was unlike anything familiar—no aircraft lights, no satellites, just these tiny, elusive orbs moving with an eerie stillness and purpose.
Despite attempts to observe them through binoculars, their diminutive size and the fading daylight rendered any detailed view impossible. The stark white dots were too faint to capture clearly on video; the brightness of the surrounding sky washed out any chance to record this mystery. Yet their presence was undeniable, circling the moon in a silent, hypnotic dance.
Among a group of vacationers fully sober and keenly observant, this phenomenon sparked a deep curiosity. We are educated adults, and even so, these floating lights defied all rational explanations. What could they be? A natural optical illusion? Secretive aerial devices? Or something altogether different, something otherworldly?
This experience in Cabo San Lucas lingers as a haunting reminder that sometimes, the skies reveal secrets that challenge our understanding—a quiet invitation to explore the unknown, one mysterious night at a time.
