<p>I was out with a couple friends a night and we looked up to the sky just watching the stars. I noticed what looked like a star moving then told my friends and they saw it too. </p>

<p>After we saw the one moving star we noticed 2 more, it seriously looked like 3 stars just decided to have a meeting. It was the weirdest thing I've ever seen</p>

These are almost certainly satellites. Keep in mind that satellites look like slowly moving stars; well, they move more slowly than meteors do at least! If they were moving somewhat slowly and constantly, and if they had no additional flashing lights and no bright colors, they were definitely satellites.
