large craft moving then ceasing along w/ some sort of lighted craft that entered the view of the 'star' lit like craft and rersembled a

Neighbor and I witnessed a light, roughly the 'size' of a star, moving from the Southeast to the Northwest. We watched this 'light' move and stop...move and stop in the same direction-to the Northeast, until suddenly a light..resembling an old videogame-dash, dash...so on and so forth, shot into view-again to the Southwestern sky and as it left a laser like light trailing very fast, the 'star light' and the meteoric like 'incoming' whatever....both disappeared.

This is a hot zone for these types of events Peter, ergo I will do my best from now on to eilm or photograph these anomolous 'activities' as best I can. hope this was helpful in some way as this area is truly a 'hotspot' for craft unusual and unidentified sky events. Keep up the good work Peter. Many people are very grateful and proud of your endeavour to log these bizarre craft and their activities. Yours, ((name deleted))
