I hope it is OK that I have posted this here, my apologies if it is in the wrong place.
I have had 3 sightings since the 03/01/2013. I will start by explaining the first sighting.
On the 03/01/2013 at around 9.40pm I was standing outside my house in the backyard looking north at the sky (was just about to set my telescope up) when I saw a bright red/orange (light/shape/star) , I personally would describe it as looking like a star. It traveled across the sky from west to east. There was a plane flying overhead at the same time and you could clearly tell my 'star' was a very long way away.
I called out to my family to come see. My 17 yr old son came running and clearly saw what I pointed out. We watched it until it went so far east that my trees blocked our view. So we ran through the house and out the front calling to my hubby on the way. Now all 3 of us are out front looking east and we watch until it disappeared out of sight. We stood there for awhile contemplating what we just saw, when I scream 'there's another one' So now there is another 'star' this time travelling south to north. Hubby tried to dismiss as satellite of some kind and went inside. About 10 mins later I was back out in the backyard just starring at the sky (east) when I spotted another 'star' . This one was sitting high in the sky to the east and it appeared to drop ,although it could of been travelling further east and just gave the appearance that it dropped. My son saw this one also.
