Very bright lights in the sky that hovered in place for over an hour

Woke up at 3 a.m., and decided to go downstairs. I rolled over, put my glasses on, and I saw bright lights that I thought was a plane. I thought it was odd to see a plane on the flight path to Logan Airport at that hour.

Then I realized the lights were not moving, and noticed the lights were sort of shimmering and blinking (mostly white with what appeared to be only one red light). I kept staring at it thinking maybe it was a planet or a star, but this was no planet or star since I could see individual lights. It seemed to be moving to the left then to the right only a tiny bit, and seemed to be rotating. Then to the left of it, there was a very, very bright flash that lasted for less than a second. Then the same thing happened to the right of it.

Laid there still awake for about a half hour, then looked out the window again. It was still there--not moving, but blinking and shimmering. Around 4:45, it was further away.

The flashes were more like thin beams of extremely bright white light that travelled in perfectly straight vertical lines. They appeared in a flash, in a nanosecond—and these flashes were blinding. I cannot imagine I was the only person who saw this.
