Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

Flashing lights over Wilkes-Barre, PA.

As the wbs penguins game was letting out, I observed a bright flashing white light in the sky. I realized the light was flashing SOS in morse code. I pointed this out to my wife and a few others. My initial thought in this day and age of terrorism was a hijacked aircraft flashing the landing lights.

The object appeared to be slowly getting closer. Again I thought aircraft that was far away and high. The white light stopped flashing and was replaced with a solid green light. The object then appeared to accelerate rapidly, come more overhead, and stop again. It flashed SOS in white light 2 more times. The green light then accelerated rapidly back in the same direction it came from out of sight.

The object came from and returned to the west. The moon was up but mostly obscured by clouds.

When the object was more overhead, it appeared there was more than just a light. The green light seemed to illuminate some of the underside. It was so high however that i could not swear to what shape the object was.

I tried to get video, but my phone would not work. My wife did get some video, but it is not very good.
