My wife and I saw an orange glowing object moving across the sky, then witnessed it stop and change direction in the blink of an eye.

My wife and I were on our deck last night around dusk, watching airplanes go by (we see planes on their way to the Pittsburgh International Airport). Out of nowhere I noticed an orange sort of glowing form in the distant sky, heading Southwest. It seemed very unusual, so I kept my eye on it, for about 2 minutes. Then, out of nowhere it stopped and immediately started heading Northeast! As it reached the middle of the sky (from our point of view) another similar glowing object appeared and the 2 of them crossed paths, and headed in different directions, where within a minute or so they disappeared from my view. This first encounter lasted about 5 minutes or so total.

I stayed outside until it got darker while my wife went inside. Not too long after 9 PM or so I noticed a ball of white, dim light (maybe a teardrop shape?) moving horizontally across the sky, just above a distant tree line. The object then stopped completely, started pulsating white lights for about 10 seconds, then headed out of my view.

All 3 of these objects were too far away to make out their shapes, but I would guess either cylinders or teardrops. And although they all pulsated orange and white lights, they also had a very solid aspect to them, like a craft. Not sure how to explain that. One of the greatest things I've ever had the chance to witness.

I've always believed in this stuff, but have never seen anything first-hand! Wow!
