Three glowing green orbs traveling westbound at approximately 70 - 80 MPH on US 20 near Furnaceville

I was riding a motorcycle, eastbound on US 20 and cresting a hill just west of Kemil Road. As soon as I reached the top of the hill I observed one spherical object approximately three feet in diameter, greenish blue glow with a lumens output close to what a 40 watt incandescent light bulb output would be.

Object was traveling opposite direction (westbound) approximately fifteen to twenty feet above the pavement following the vertical elevation of the highway as it was cresting another hill that I was approaching. Object was traveling at approximately 70-80 MPH.

As soon as the first object went past me and out of my peripheral vision, another two identical objects appeared, cresting the same hill that the first object had just crested. Both objects were traveling at the same speed and all three seemed to be evenly spaced.

I made a u-turn on the motorcycle and intended to pursue the lights but could not accelerate fast enough to come anywhere near to catching up with them.

I was pretty good at field observations as I was just finishing up on my geophysics undergraduate degree.
