Me and my girlfriend went to her farm last night in Quincy, IL to observe a meteor shower. We observed roughly 29 meteors. They were streaking and would stop and we knew exactly what they looked like. During our observation, we noticed a star-sized object moving across the sky from south to east. The rate of travel was unlike anything ive ever seen. From a point of view looking at the stars it could jump from one star to the next in seconds. It would pause, circle, reverse, zig zag and then shoot off. This sighting lasted about two and a haf minutes. Another orb re-appeared more east soon after the first object took off, which we assumed was the same object we saw previously. This object was not covering as much area now as when we first saw it, but it was still zig zagging, dropping, and ascending but this time there was a faint beam coming off of it. Not too much longer a second orb appeared farther to the left of the object we were observing. So now we are witnessing two ufo's at once zig zagging, descending, and ascending. It almost seemed as if they were watching the meteor shower. After observing these two objects for about 20 minutes, a smaller white/blue light ejected from the second craft and shot across at an incredible lightning speed and re-appeared next to the first craft in the air. Both of the first two objects were still moving in no pattern when we left. We were not able to get pictures as our iPhones could not pick up the light. We decided there was nothing else we could do and the meteor shower was over and we decided to go home. Needless to say we were scared shitless but at the same time intrigued so we started waving to it. We knew it was far higher than any airplane could go and we knew it most likely couldnt see us but we gave it a shot.
