Lac du Flambeau, Wisconsin (United States)

Sighted on Saturday 17. April 2010
Reported on
Shape: Star-like | Duration: Undisclosed
Source:

There were 4 of us visiting the lake cottage in Northern Wisconsin - We were sitting around the bonfire watching for meteor showers - When we noticed a small star-like object heading south at a rapid pace - We first thought it might just be a satellite - Then notice 2 more following at the same rapid pace - When one of them made a full u-turn and started to head back north towards where the big-dipper was positioned in the sky at that time - Then the other 2 had turned around and headed back north - They all looked fairly the same size as a star in the dipper - Then the actually formed a sort of triangle and their lights then faded to very faint, almost hard to see - Then about 30 seconds later, a 4th star-like object headed to the same area at a rapid pace then it's light slowly faded - All 4 objects just sat there for a good 5 minutes as the light seemed to fade further away into space - It was one of the most amazing things to see - and realizing satellites don't change course like that or do u-turns - Being that they were so far up in space, we didn't have a camera capable of taking pictures of stars etc...
