I glanced out my window and noticed a strangely moving object in the far distance, i immediately shouted my daughter who came up and watched what occurred. a light was flashing on and off moving along in a straight line, it then stopped in position and the lights flashed repeatedly before it suddenly ascended at extreme speed it then turned back on itself going the opposite direction before we lost sight. my daughter who is sceptical about such events was laughing and jested for them to give us a sign, immediately after saying this a beam of light shot across the sky and we lost track of the object as we both panicked and left the room, when we returned the sky was clear other than stars.
