Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Las Vegas, NV, USA

Shape: Circle

5 objects travelling at high speed and fliying in patterns that would defy currently known limits.

While stargazing on the night of the sighting, I was observing the constellations Virgo and Leo when I noticed 5 aircraft that came into view from the east 3 white and 2 red. The aircraft were travelling west. The size was about the size of the stars in the constellations which indicated high altitude. The distance covered during the period of time they were in my view indicated a very high speed. The 3 red aircraft were traveling parallel ahead of the 2 white aircraft. The 2 white aircraft would move ahead of each other and diagonally across the width of the 3 red aircraft. 1 of the 3 red aircraft stopped for approx 5 seconds and the white aircraft increased their speed and caught up to the 2 red aircraft. The 1 red aircraft then quickly travelled towards the 4 aircraft in a zig zag sort of pattern and passed the 4 aircraft. Just as the 1 red aircraft was passing the 4, all 5 aircraft continued travelling forward but but criss-crossing each other and exchanging the lead position. The aircraft continued this flight pattern until they were out of view.
