Location: Edge, TX, USA

Shape: Light

I was looking at the big dipper when i noticed that there was a bright light directly in between the two stars that make up the bottom of the dipper's bucket. I noticed that it was moving up ward. It was a very bright white light, and I wasn't able to detect any noise. It began to move NE and as I watched it I noticed another bright light following the same pattern. I continued to concentrate on the first light. As it entered the milky way it grew dimmer and then disappeared from sight. The second light followed the same pattern and disappeared in the same fashion as the first light.
