Duration: 1.5 hours
No of observers: 1

Location: Portland, OR, USA

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Aircraft nearby

I was sitting outside on my porch after midnight. As I sat there I looked out above my neighbors house to see two stars about an inch apart and one slightly higher in the sky than the other. Object A was very bright and the light from it faded in and out, much like a star; Object B was much duller and both were too far to see any shape to them other than they were circular.

Anyways, as I sat and stared Object A glided to the left and Object B followed, trying to keep the same distance they had before. Over a span of the hour and a half these objects moved left, right, up and down while gradually moving NE without breaking their original space in between. After watching them for that span of time, they moved out of sight.

I did notice that when planes or helicopters were in the sky, they stayed perfectly still, but moved as soon as they were a good distance away.
