I have just come back from holiday in Marmaris, Turkey. I was in my appartment on the balcony looking at the night sky when I thought I saw something moving slowly from east to west in the northern sky, after straining my eyes, because it was very faint I could see 3 orange lights in a triangular pattern, at first I thought it was a plane but then they started moving in an irregular pattern. At this point I called my friend who was in the room to come and have a look, I pointed them out to him which he also found very hard to see due them being very faint, BUT he did see them, they then formed a triangular pattern again but this time the distance between each point grew larger and then came closer again,they then became too faint to see with the naked eye. Weather coditions were a clear starry night but the lights were nearer to the horizon against a lighter blue blackground as opposed to the darker blue higher up. We discussed what we saw and threw ideas up in the air as to what it could have been, there was no sound or fume trails like you would see with some sort of aircraft, so we thought how about lasers from a night club or hotel, but there were no clouds in the sky or sea mist or anything like that and we never saw it agin for the rest the holiday.
