I went outside to get some air,I had been studying for a test,so it was late when I finished.I cycled a short distance from the house(less than 100m.)I spotted what I thought to be a plane, There is a flight path there, so I didn't think anything of it.Nothing unusual.I waited for it to pass overhead, I like looking at planes at night with their lights on.But it didn,t pass over.I became curious so I watched more carefully. I then relised it was hovering,more lights seemed to come from behind it persumably out of it.I saw three lights jumping up and down irratically,in orbit around the first one.They moved from it and disappeared and reappeared in places around the area.Iwent through a check list , meteor etc. But it was none of the more usual things.I was both frightened and fascinated by it.I didn't take a photograph of it as my mother and father were the ones who owned a camera I was afraid of what they would think ,(mental,crazy etc.) , if I were to ask for the camera, they would ask me what I wanted it for.I couldn,t keep track of the objects movements (dissappearing and reappearing), so I lost count.The original one stayed in the same place.They seemed to return to the larger one, it dimed until it was no longer visible.So far, I have only told a close friend. THIS IS THE TRUTH!
