About an hour or so ago, my boyfriend went outside and looked up at the clear sky, and saw the alignment of the moon with Venus and either another planet or star that were all lined up.

The bottom one closest to the horizon is very large, the one between it and the moon was smaller but still very visible.

As he looked up at the sky, he saw a light beamm come from the second smaller star shoot straight at the moon. He's not the type to make this up and has been freaked since he saw it and is now laying down.

I'm going to keep checking to see if it will show again.

I'd sure like to know what that could have been.

We're in Alaska.
