I was sitting around a campfire with a group of people about 5 miles off of Route 395 in the Mojave desert. It was around 330am and I had been looking up all night because the stars were amazing. Directly east, I saw a light way off in the distance, which I first thought was a star but it began to move. My second thought it was a shooting star because it was dropping but then it made a sharp left, then straight back up. I had to rub my eyes to make sure it wasn't an illusion. My next thought was it was a satellite, but then it dropped straight down again. All of this was happening in the same location, and I knew this because I was using a star for reference. Once my brain realized what I was seeing I woke people up and it made a left and took off faster than any aircraft would and covered a huge distance in a matter of 1 second. My friend caught the last bit of it. I have seen UFOs before in northern Michigan and Washington (which only hovered) but I've never witnessed any aerial gymnastics like this. I kept thinking maybe it's government craft because I was in the middle of the desert, but who knows
