three objects in perfect triangle fomation flying at extremely high altitudes

I was observing the northern lights and as they dissipated I continued to gaze up at the stars. I noticed a sattelite, nothing out of the norm. Then right near it another sattelite. I expected the two to drift apart, but they moved together. I assumed I was looking at two stars and I saw some sort of optical illusion. Until I noticed a third object. The three formed a near perfect isosceles triangle and moved in perfect formation from west to east. As they travelled east and reached near the zenith point in the sky, almost directly above (not a menacing abduction type above, but a general straight up), the lead object appeared to stop and vanish. As the following two reached the same vicinity they too vanished. The objects were very high in the atmosphere, if not above the atmosphere.
