Three glowing blue lights traveling from North to South

At approximately 5:30 this morning, I was walking our dog along our usual morning walk trek.

Looking up at the stars, as I usually do, I noticed one moving.

It had a blue glow, and did not sparkle like stars usually do...it was definitely a glow.

As I watched it, it was in the sky at about 80 degrees from the horizon, and was traveling from North to South.

Its flight was more like a glide, very smooth.

It was different from the way planes and jets move through the sky. And while "glide" seems to be a bit inadequate, I am not sure how else to describe its motion other than with that word.

After a minute and a half or so, 2 other objects joined it in flight...they had the same blue glow.

All continued to head South.

From my vantage point, I could not really tell if they were in any kind of flight formation or not.

One thing that struck me was the flight path.

Usually when I notice planes going overhead, they tend to follow the curve of the Earth, getting closer to the horizon as they move further away.

These 3 objects did not seem to do that.

As they proceeded South, they did not get lower on the horizon, but continued into the darkness of the sky, like they were going away from Earth.

Please feel free to contact me if there are any questions.
