I was outside with my dog at 5:13 a.m., and when I looked up at the sky to see the stars I saw a zipper shape of lights to the east. I was looking towards the golf course, east of Foley, Alabama. I took a photo because of how peculiar it looked. It was not moving at all. After a few minutes it simply faded away. I thought perhaps a cloud moved over it, only the sky was black with many stars, so don’t believe a cloud covered it. The photo I’m attaching was zoomed in and the flash came on.

While walking my dog, I always watch the sky when I hear a jet as we live so close to Pensacola NAS to see if the Blue Angels are around. I did not see any in the area, but an extremely high object caught my eye. I can't be positive of the shape due to the height it was flying but it traveled approximately 1 foot in sight then slowed to almost a stop, did a 360 degree turn (in a space about the size of my fingernail) and took off at approximately 3x the speed it was traveling and disappeared into the clouds. The object was heading West to East and finally headed Southwest. I have never seen any jet perform a 360 degree turn in this small of space and at that height. Object was white in color and the weather was sunny with feathery clouds. If I had to guess at the height, I would say it was 40,000 to 50,000 feet.

A large, crescent-shaped object moved through the sky at a constant speed and altitude. The object had no lights and appeared to take on the color of its environment- the night sky. Its outline was visible, and it made no noise. It made me and my friend very uneasy. Moments after, a smaller, sphere-shaped craft moved erratically through the sky at a lower altitude with a greater speed. It appeared to be brown in color with no lights. It quickly vanished into thin air.
