I was laying in bed at around 10:30 PM. I have a large skylight right above my head and I can see a small patch of sky while in bed. At 10:30 PM I saw a glowing white orb through the skylight streak by at tremendous speed travelling north. It was apparently golf ball sized, but was probably a lot bigger because of it's altitude. I dismissed it thinking it was some sort of meteor or satellite entering the atmosphere. A few minutes later I saw another orb streak by the skylight in the same direction and same speed. I thought, what are the chances of 2 meteors streaking by the exact same patch of sky so that they are seen through my skylight? I then felt compelled to get dressed and go out into the back yard, which I did. After waiting about 5 minutes, another object came in from the north travelling south at many thousands of MPH. This time it was at a much higher altitude because it was much smaller (almost star like). It zig zagged a few times but generally kept on a southerly course. It stopped above the southern horizon and descended until it was apparently basketball sized, then streaked by going north. Over the next half hour I observed 3 more orbs travelling north and south. The last orb was the only one to suddenly stop, then head slightly west, then perform a 90 degree turn on a dime and head north out of sight. That was the end of my experience. There was nothing the rest of the night.
