Message Subject Im seeing Objects that look like stars Moving across the Sky Tonight.--Anyone help?
Poster Handle Anomalous Howard
Post Content
I'm close to NJ.
Just now saw one. Slightly larger and brighter white than the surrounding stars. Motionless when I looked at the sky...almost directly overhead. Then it slowly moved South to North for a few seconds (3 or 4 apparent inches) then disappeared. WAY too slow to be a shooting star.
Couldn't be sun reflecting off a satellite at this time of night. Couldn't be sun reflecting off a satellite since it was moving South to North when it disappeared...or winked out...or whatever...since it would have to be moving west to east to do that. I've seen satellites reflected before and they wink out when they have traveled far enough eastward to move into the Earth's shadow. And satellites only reflect sunlight during the earlier night hours.
I also saw one a few days ago. Westward toward the horizon. Also moving slowly south to north and winking out after 3 or 4 apparent inches. At the time I thought it may have been a jetliner turning so that its lights turned from toward me to away from me. I was a little suspicious that even though the white light I saw winked out, I didn't see any red flashing lights afterward but it seemed quite far off so I didn't get too tin-foiled up about it.
But this one tonight was, as I said, almost directly overhead. Could not have been a jet....no noise either.
