Shape: Other

thought it was a satelite,but it turned-arced-came back -very high tight circles directly over-head second night it occurred.

i live in a very quiet area. i look at stars on clear nights. first time i observed was 10/30/98. i again observed 4/19/99. same area as first sighting.looking at the western skies,it was traveling in a southerly direction. it then turned toward the east (large arc)then turned north - returned almost over-head.it was the size and brightness of a faint star. no noise(i hear any aircraft going over)this was extremely high.when over-head it tightened up into very small circular patterns.at times, one or more other crafts would appear and circle with it.the brightness of the craft was,in my opinion,was caused by reflecting sunlight.(maybe)as time went by it got dimmer and dimmer.i don't think that these objects are using the stars for navagation because in october the stars were in different parts of the sky.i don't know what they are doing up there, but it seems they have a rendevous location at extremely high altitudes.
