There’s lots of things in the sky we occasionally can’t explain. Who knows WHAT you saw?! At the very least, you have a great story to tell at parties 👍

I was once out hiking, and the blue sky overhead had a few little puff balls of clouds. I saw what I can only describe as a “bright star” moving across the sky. I thought it was probably an airplane that was catching the sunlight. It went into one of the small clouds, and didn’t come out! I sat there watching for it to emerge from the cloud for what what seemed like a few minutes, wondering “what the heck?”. Then suddenly, the bright star shot straight up out of the cloud in a spiraling motion and quickly disappeared. To this day, I can’t explain what I saw. I’m an amateur astronomer, so I’m pretty certain it was any kind of astronomical or meteorological phenomena. It makes a good story though!

I actually came across the “Betty and Barney Hill Abduction” state historical marker on Hwy 3 in Indian Head a few weeks ago. It was dusk, and it actually gave me the creeps just driving thru there lol.
