Not sure what I saw?

Last night I was seeing off my parents who had been baby sitting when I looked up to see two very bright stars. They apeared to be both slowly moving towards the ground (which is how I noticed them).
I asked my parents to look up and one of the "what looked like a star" went straight up. I was quite excited by this.. And with a blink of an eye the other star which had stop moving down disappeared. Then the higher star on the left then also disappeared. I know this seems very strange.. and no I wasn't drinking. My parents weren't as impressed as I was but had seen the same thing.
Any ideas?

Sorry, but is was my mother in law and her friend going home. The mother in law had trouble with her broom.. Some sort of power burst that shot her thousands of feet in the air.

Not really, i just had a funny thought. I have seen a few odd things myself that have got me wondering also.



Regards

What you probably saw was two Satellites going in different directions then blinking out as they went into the Earth's shadow.

The only problem with that is they were both slowly moved in the same direction towards the ground, before one shot up? Then held is position.

Unless satallites can move extremely quickly and stop on the spot.. Iam thinking it must be proof that UFO's are real. Unless someone knows of something else it might be.

Nope, it couldn't feasibly be anything else. Little critters with big heads, speeding around the galaxy in their G-force imune craft, abducting cows and people with brains like cows.

We're lucky you saw them, when not even the thousands of aircraft radar or satellite tracking systems did. (of course they didn't, it's a cover up).

There are a bunch of things it could be. Arthur C Clarke wrote a good book explaining all of the natural and man-made phenomena that cause odd looking lights in the sky. I have it somewhere, I'll see what I can find.
Of course UFOs are real, in as much as you saw a flying object and it is currently unidentified. It would be beyond unlikely that it was a pair of Alien craft however.

How about we all assume that it is something explainable and try and find an explanation first. Although the mother-in-law theory may be worth further investigation.

You can start by checking what was in the sky at your location at that time.

If I was an Alien on a strange world, I'd spin along at 35000 feet at 500knots with a blinking light on each side of my 'saucer'.
Then everyone would assume I'm a plane - of course I would be radar invisible so that wouldn't be a problem.
I wouldn't zap around like a kid on a new bike making a show of my aerobatic skills.

Hi, going against character and being serious for just a moment. What you saw was most assuredly an U.F.O..

An U.F.O. is by definition an unidentified flying object.

I have personally seen multiple U.F.O.'s but I doubt very much that I have ever seen a ship from another planet, galaxy, dimension or time.

The more one looks up the more one will see that brings wonder, puzzlement and pondering.

Yer Brian W, my point exactly. It's funny how angry people will get. The objects appeared like any star you have seen in the sky.. Not a plane,.. Star trek craft etc lol. The day was Wednesday 07/09 at around 8, 8.30pm.
the objects moved slowly... But the one that moved up quickly did not appear larger as it moved very fast then stopping on the spot. So I am ruling out helicopters

I think it's sad that people aren't open minded. I know what I saw something strange.. If you can't be objective and question things then I feel sad for you. I don't know what I saw.. Hense the Title.

It's more likely that people that are angry have been raised Christian and the thought of other intelligent life..(other than on earth) Upsets them because it throws all there belief systems out the window.
