[quote:Reckless Driver:MV8xODUzMjI2XzMwOTM4NjIyX0E4Qjg0RjM4] I have seem them too, in Central NC. I saw one a few nights ago (Friday I think) I was following it with my scope b/c it was travelling slow enough to do so, when it passed a near-by star it got brighter, then dimmed back after it passed. THAT was crazy to SEE. Not sure what is up there but I've never seen anything like this. If they are Sats. Why would they have a white nav. light? So the other Sats. can see them? I've seen plenty of shooting stars and high alt. planes in my life, this was like nothing I've seen. :spock: [/quote]

In the Eastern sky.
I was looking up at the stars and it looked like a star flew over me at incredible speed before vanishing.
Shooting star? I have seen shooting stars before and this was too fast. It didn't have a trail behind it either. Just a little bright dot that moved incredibly fast from point a to point b and then disappeared. It did look like it was in space though...or upper atmosphere.
Really weird. I would be interested to know if this is can be explained scientifically.
