It was between 10:30pm-11:00pm August 23rd. This was viewed from the east side of the city. I was inside taking care of a few chores before bed and my boyfriend was outside having a smoke. Suddenly I hear him yelling for me to run outside. He points to the sky and asks, "What is THAT?" and together we look up. There is a light, about the same size/brightness/color as the surrounding stars, moving very slowly. I brushed it off as an airplane, albeit a very strange looking one. It was almost over head, a little South, and moving Eastward. It was moving in a straight line but then got a little shaky and sporadic, although still running a straight course. He runs out to the street to try and get a better look and he lost view of it in the process. I watched the entire time and suddenly the light started to shrink, it changed color to a darker orange, and then blinked out to nothing. In the same area appeared 4 more star-like things, the same darker orange as the original light had turned before it blinked out. They didn't move. They simple blinked on in a diamond shape, lasted about 5 seconds, then blinked out. The last 4 lights were very, very faint. He didn't catch those, only I did.The whole thing happened so quickly I didn't even have time to think about grabbing a camera to record what was happening. It was the first time I've witnessed anything of the sort.
