my wife and me were camping in the ashley national forest. as i was laying down i first noticed for bright object in the shape of a slightly flattened cross above me. instantly one of the stores seem to flickr from point a to point b to point area again and about and i blink moment. i first thought it was must’ve not seeing it correctly. then it started doing circles in the sky and would shoot from one direction to the next covering great distances at a time. when it would start other ships would approach it that looked like lightly dimed stars. i could then see in the night when the two of them got parallel together it would cause a black beam in between the two of them and then on the ground it would be as though somebody instantly kept changing the light from on to off. very dark on the ground almost to the point you could not see your hand. it appeared to me and my wife and one other witness that there must’ve been about 12 different objects in the sky and moving around in different directions
