Two large objects from the east, silent and moving together, diverged and went separate directions.On Sunday, August 25 at about 10:15 PM, I went outside with my pair of Gen.3 night vision binoculars to view the sky. I live near Asheville, NC. I saw several shooting stars and a couple of airplanes. I then noticed, coming out of the east heading west, two brightly lit object that seemed to be pretty high up, perhaps 15 or 20,000 ft. They were close to one another, and proceeded to move at the same speed and, while maintaining the exact same pace with one another, began to slowly diverge, with one object heading north, the other heading south. They showed no plane lighting configurations, but seemed to be self-illuminated, of a oval or round shape, with a dark spot at the bottom of each object and another lighted section below the darkened area. They were silent and had to have been huge in size. This lasted 4 or 5 minutes.
