Hello Mr. Vike, my name is (name removed). I am below an amateur level in astronomy, however I do possess a rudimentary knowledge of the stars, and can read star maps to identify objects in the night sky.
I am an avid watcher of the sky, I go out almost every night to star gaze.
Last night, I saw an object which appeared to be an airplane at first glance. It seemed to be moving slowly, then I saw it reverse direction and finally settle in one spot.
I quickly fetched my binoculars, and noticed a distinct sequencing of blue, green, red, white and amber lights.
I have been trying to rationalize what I saw. Perhaps light refraction from atmospheric interference, however, this was a distinct sequence, and the object appeared to be in the atmosphere.
My fathers first statement when I showed him was that it was an aircraft perhaps moving away from us.
I watched the object until the lights stopped. It appeared to go dormant.
This object was in the East, and I noticed three more in the S, SE, and SW. Am I losing my mind?
