July 3rd, 2016. Several dim lights moving back and forth countering each other in the Eastern sky over Wingdale, NY.
I went to see my aunt in NY for dinner and fireworks on July 3rd, 2016. After we ate and lit some fireworks we decided to go to the back of the house and watch the neighbor's light show towards the Northeast. As that wound down I just had that urge to look up towards the Eastern sky and I noticed a dim "star" start moving North within the triangular star formation I was using for reference. I then noticed another dim object moving South from the same area. I then got my daughter and my cousin to hone in on these dim, high altitude objects moving counter to each other. I finally got my aunt to see the last 1 or 2 objects. Usually, satellites move at a steady pace across the sky. Not back and forth in a "confined" area. And not 4 or 5 of them in the same area.
Similar to a siting I made from my New Milford, CT, home early 2016, facing West (toward NY) at 3:30am. I could not sleep that night. Was stargazing to the West then suddenly the "bright star" shot up and out and dimmed accordingly as if leaving Earth orbit at high speed. I can't explain these sitings.
