Characteristics: Lights on object

a very short line of 3 greenish lights

While vacationing at a beach house in Duck, a large group of us were sitting out on an open deck observing the stars. Just below the Big Dipper, a blurred light was noticed. To the naked eye, it appeared to be a very short line of light. When using standard binoculars, the line appeared as three bright, greenish, distinct lights in a row. We observed the lights over a period of 2 hours. The object did not appear to move. The object was not in the sky the follwing clear night.
