2 light objects far up in sky over 75 between exits 19 and 18

I was driving along I-75 last night from Ft. Myers to Naples when I saw an object in the sky. It was bright, and it seemed like there was more than just the light, but too far away to make out a shape. It wasn't a star or a plane or a planet. It kept moving with me as I headed to Naples. It was really, really far up and seemed distant--not like how most people see stuff close. Between exits 19 and 18 there were two empty cars parked together on the side of the road (contacts?). As I kept going another object crossed the path of the first and went behind my car. The other object remained visible until I got home.

NUFORC Note:

Event may have been a missile launch, possibly from a submarine. Please see other reports. PD
