hovering objects sighted in iowa.I am a sixty-eight yr.old female,who along with my husband,& our 14 yr.old son,observed this display of lights after being alerted by a young friend. At first,I saw one circular object in the sky,north and slightly east.It was yellow with flashing lights of red,blue,and green,There was an occasional flash of white also.My first thoght was airplane,then I noticed that it did not move.Suddenly another one appeared beside the first one.It appeared and disappeared and shortly,was gone.The first one was still in the same position,but started moving quickly to the left,right,up,down, each time, returning to its' original position.Shortly,another was spotted but in the NW sky.The one in the NNE was visable about 2 hr.& then started receding into the NNE sky.
