zigzagging light traveling through space and traveling around starsI decided to post this only now after having heard of similar reports. I hope to give some evidence that this type of sighting is not unique. It was when I was still a child (in other words before using perception changing substances) with a few of my friends that we noticed a light high in the sky whilst sleeping outside and mindlessly looking for satelites. I'm not sure how many of us noticed the light but I do know that we were at least 4 to have seen it. The light was, I suspect, very far off. At first we thought that it was another satelite, but as we gazed at it started moving in a zigzagg motion at a very quick pace. After a number of seconds, the star-like light stopped zigzagging and continued to move in a straight line. This was already a great surprise to us, but that wasn't it. In the path of the light there was a star, which the light did a semi circle around and then resumed its course until it was no longer visible as it faded. I know it sounds ridiculous that the light went around the star, since the star was probably nowhere close to the light, but thats what I saw and so did my friends.((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate. PD))
