Two slow moving, then hovering, objects in night sky.

9pm – We were in our back yard, looking up at the Moon, when we noticed two “aircraft lights” a little “west” of the moon, about the height that we usually see airplanes. Planes regularly fly over our house, at a high altitude; we see the lights blinking and sometimes a red light from the taillight. My husband said that’s weird the lights on those planes aren’t blinking. I was like oh ok who cares. Then he was like also one of them isn’t moving, they are just hovering. Then we thought helicopter?? But it seemed really high for a helicopter and we couldn’t hear anything, we can usually hear a faint roar when a plane flies over.

So then one of the “lights” starts moving really slowly through the clouds heading east, while the other stayed still. An actual plane flew by as this was happening, the plane was much faster with blinking lights and we could hear it.

The east light moved for about 5-6 minutes then stopped and hovered. The west light started moving really slowly as well, for about 2 minutes then stopped.

They both just stayed there, seemingly equidistant from the moon (from what we could tell) for about 20 minutes before a large black storm cloud obscured them from view.
