Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Perth (Western Australia), , Australia

Shape: Unknown

I saw three bright objects travelling together, they were far away, their velocity changed and one stoped it's motion.

I was taking a walk around my 1 and a quater acre property in Forrestfield Perth with my binoculars star gazing. It was a cool damp winter morning in Perth and I was not focusing on the sky at all when a light caught the corner of my eye, I was trying to maintain warmth. I looked up and to my astonishment I saw 3 objects emitting or reflecting the light from the sun, they were moving together in a north north westerly direction. This automatically ruled out satelite expanations. I was captivated, I then noticed that they were changing their velocity, accelerating then decelerating. This ruled out the posibility of meteor fragments. If that were not enough the rear object stoped in it's flight, motionless if you will. At this point, about a hour from sunrise, I became filled with excitement and fear which I could not contain. I ran inside, when I pulled my self together and came back they were gone.

The moral of the story, do not fear.
