looked like sattelite or star, extreme acceleration
Looking south,60*above horizon. What appeared to be a reflection off a sattelite, i observed this "light" traversing from west to s. east."light"moving faster than conventional craft,appeared to be travelling at about a 10 degree angle for about 20 seconds, then what appeared to be "chase planes" (6) showed up far behind "light". At which time "light" accelerated for approx. 2-3 seconds then vanished beyond atmosphere. 8-10 min. later another "light" appeared for approx. 25 sec. then accelerated for 2-3 seconds then vanished, no other craft besides normal air traffic. I went inside to get video camera, upon returning outside i observed 1 more "light" same as 1st 2 but orange tint to this one which accelerated for 2-3 seconds then vanished into "space". All 3 had same trajectory, same acceleration pattern & no sound. Pretty windy so i couldn't really hear much, but could still hear planes in normal flight path. What appeared as chase planes seemed to only foll! ow the first 1 i saw but there was no way any conv. craft i've ever seen was going to even remotely catch these "lights". Anyone else see anything above so. Michigan, no. Ohio. no. Indiana border? Couldn't capture on video.
