Strange lights over Brisbane

this sighting was based mainly on the coast, i was on the bayside of brisbane, however film was taken north, also on the coast.....as i was driving home we noticed people stopped by the side of the road...looking up....when we also did we noticed bright lights in the sky that looked nothing like we had seen before, as i wanted my family to also see this we continued to my home and woke the whole house up, we then spent about an hour on the veranda watching the lights we saw in the sky, there were about 17 of them making a formation and some them moving slowly away, some seemed quite low and i thought if you were under them they would seem quite large.....some seemed to shoot off and dissapear....what they did in the air was not like any normal aircraft.....our news the following night a Saturday reported strange lights in the sky overnight...no explanation.....just STRANGE LIGHTS OVER BRISBANE LAST NIGHT. I have lived with this for many years and have still not had someone who can explain. I now often look to the sky hoping to see it again as it was the most amazing thing I have experienced and if I hadnt of seen would remain a sceptic today.
