My mom noticed the object first then informed the rest of the family. It was small but when you saw this object you could easily see that it was moving, and fast. We watched it travel then disappear but we were amazed so we kept looking at the sky that's when we saw the same thing happen again but in a different area. We kept looking at the sky and it happened again this time closer to the Little Dipper. This one went toward the direction that the second one disappeared and they all traveled in straight lines. We watched all of this in bewilderment and I myself with a mixture of bewilderment and fear. I know that when I was inside my TV turned off randomly but I thought nothing of it at first then someone phone went off during the event. We tried to capture this one camera but were unable to because I wouldn't show up. We all decided to go inside but then my mom saw something different; an orb like object that we had seen moving was now hovering/stationary at a distance but looked to be over our neighbors house from our angle. This object had a white blinking light like the others but it seemed brighter. Oh and there was a helicopter flying in the area at about the time that the second object was traveling or disappeared. We thought these thongs were stars dying but dying stars don't move in a straight line.
