NARRATIVE

Two of us sitting outside saw what looked like a shooting star go part way across the sky and then stop.
It then turned 90 degrees and proceeded southward then quickly made a circle went further south and circled again.
It then proceeded south out of view. Everything lasted about 30 seconds and the circles were too fast for any jet.
We did not hear any sound or motor. It seemed to have 2 or 3 lights orange or yellow.
We both thought it was maybe 20,000 feet high but the circles were done so quickly I think it must have been much lower.
We both can not logically explain what we saw and it does not fit any flying object we are aware of.
Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.  PD
