Details: 4 persons star-gazing from home on Mississippi River bluff, about
15 miles South of LaCrosse, WI on Iowa side (Brownsville, MN). Looking
East, and standing on patio/deck. Object came from the North (appeared to be
over the river). At first, it looked to be maybe a meteorite -- a coal-orange
lights streaking down at a shallow angle North to South. There were two lights,
however. The lights faded briefly, and then came back strongly. It started to
change direction (diving), went behind some trees...and then looped around and
CAME BACK to the area directly in front of us, danced around for a bit (maybe 2
seconds), and then streaked out of sight to the East. All persons saw the same
thing, but couldn't agree on size/distance of object. Entire sighting lasted 3 -
4 seconds. Sky was very clear; weather very calm/pleasant (about 70 degrees
[F]). No moon. Away from city, so stars very clear & bright.
