Initial data
The starlight traveled a short distance and then disappeared.
The 1st bright light appeared high in the southern sky, moving down at an angle of about 45 degrees, passing behind a mountain range to the north. The light seemed to burn with a bright long tail. The second light I saw was in the southeast sky, it seemed to pass north for a short distance and then disappear, but it did so twice.
It was without a bright tail, it looked like a star, but it was definitely not a satellite.
