Bright red and green flashing lights with no flight path and rapid acceleration below horizon.

Sitting and watching for satellites after sunset. saw several and turned toward vega and cygnus. immediately saw a tiny flashing light and thru 10x binos were clearly seen to be a bright red and green flashing light. no other part of a craft was seen. estimated to be aircraft in size. a tiny white light accompanied each flashing light. difficult to tell, but seemed to be on no course and made a lazy circle with no darting. ran to get camera and it had moved toward polaris.

after fumbling with camera, looked up and item dropped like a rock out of the sky, straight to horizon. could have accelerated, but no way of knowing.
