Witness Account

A nice night, my husband (former Air Force) and I were on our deck enjoying the night. He looked up and said Look! A shooting star! I caught it flying diagonally downwards from the east (about a 30 degree trajectory) and it just stopped. The tail of what we first thought was a shooting star dissipated very quickly before it stopped in mid-air. Just a small dot of light. Then three steady, round red lights poof! went on. It just hung out there, perfectly still, in mid air for about a minute. Then the lights turned green for a few seconds. The lights went white and it sped off west. We lost sight of it behind the trees. There was no sound, no chem trails, no light trail. No craft in the sky.
