Five bright flashing lights at high altitude in bright daylight. While traveling north on the M1 motorway in Nottinghamshire, UK, my wife asked what a bright flashing light was high up in the sky. There were three other passengers in the car, and we all looked and saw a big bright white light that flashed on and off at a slow pace. 

This continued every few seconds, and when the light disappeared, nothing could be seen, although it was a bright sunny day. We were all amazed and baffled by what it could be. The light was bright. 

After about one minute, other bright flashing lights appeared in the same direction, as if they were communicating with each other. We all agreed that there were at least four lights, maybe five. 

We continued to drive along the highway and opened the windows of the cars to get a better view. We noticed that another motorist was looking at the same thing. The lights continued to burn for about four or five minutes. 

Before the lights disappeared, I noticed that one of them was moving in the direction of 2 o'clock, stretching out as it was before the disappearance. We are all professional people and have reasonable intelligence, but we are all confused by what we have seen. 

We are absolutely certain that they were not planes, but we have no alternative explanation for what we saw. I was sure other people must have seen what we were doing and expected to hear something in the media, but to date I haven't heard anything.
