Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Dunnellon, FL, USA

Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Lights on object

Illuminated satellite like object that turned multiple times at extremely high altitude

Unknown single craft at extremely high altitude multiple lights? (illuminated) in southeast sky, travelling southwest when first noticed, I thought it was a satellite crossing the sky until it turned multiple times (similar to a helicopter) but proceeded in same general southwest course. I would estimate altitude of 30-thousand feet.

After watching for 5-minutes I ran inside to get binoculars but when I got back out two minutes later I could not find it. I continued watching the sky for another hour but could not find the object again.
