About 4-5am, from the deck of my home I saw the following event. I get up most clear mornings and go out to observe the sky. Some times with binoculars and sometime with out.While observing the Orion nebula I saw a fast moving light moving from below the Orion constellation in an upward direction. Another light of about the same brightness came in at about a 30 degree angle and seemed to join the first. There was no flash of an explosion and the lights became one. I thought one pass the other but this did not happen. When the lights reached each other one disappeared and the other continued until it faded out.I have seen the space station and other satellites but they never moved in the trajectory these two objects did. We live below a major air coridor with many aircraft passing over each night (and day).I can not even guess at the altitude. The magnitude (brightness) was about the same as the average star around the Orion constellation. This was a naked eye observation.
