SIGHTING: BROOKINGS, OR

Witness Testimony

"Satelite object with some strange movement. Satelites don' t do this. do they??I was road tripping from San Fran to Port Angeles, Wahington. I took the 101 as far north as route 42s in oregon. I was in no rush and camped at several places for several days while on the road. One of the places I camped was Harris beach state park north of Brookings Oregon, on the south coast.It was about 1.45 am and i had all my gear set up and had just fed the dog. I layed down on the picknic table to watch the stars, the night was very clear and the stars were beautiful. Then as i was looking strait up I saw an interesting object that was moving slowly in the sky i thought it was a satelite. During my trips across the counrty i have seen many satelites and have even tracked them through websites. This object that i thought was a satelite was that high up, just a dot,it had a red tint and was definatly not in our atmoshere. After The object had caught my eye for about 5 seconds it did an amazingly fast j turn. Moved in the different direction for another few seconds and then dissapeared. The j turn is the best i can explain it. The turn was not a sharp angle but kind of like a loop. I didnt see anything else like it the rest of the night. It definatly sped up for the loop, during the loop and then slowed down again before it dissapeared.what did i see? sattelites dont do that. do they??"
