white lights in sky doing weird moves

I looked out my patio door before going to bed and noticed all the stars and the little dipper and saw a red streak go across the sky, so I kept looking and saw what I thought was a star drop down real fast and stop and then do a circle.

It stayed still for a few seconds then moved to the right and then up again and stopped. It continued doing circles and moving right and left and then would stay still for a few seconds.

I started looking at all the stars and could pick out three more that were doing the same thing. I noticed a plane that flew over them. When the plane flew over they were still. When the plane was a good distance away they started moving again.I saw another red or orange streak, it was real fast. I went to call my sister for her to look at them and when I went back to look again I could only find one.

Watched it for about 5 seconds and it moved up real fast and stopped. It is now almost even with the handle on the little dipper and doing circl! es. It doesn't change colors,stays like a white light.
