I just saw a UFO?
Maybe. It could be a star. But if so, it is twinkling like police lights (red, light blue, dark blue sequence). It's approx 45 degrees above the southwest horizon (very roughly).

I used the Google Sky app on my phone to try to identify it as a star but there are no bright stars (at least not THIS bright) in that patch of sky. Messier 83 is in that vacinity. It is a globular star cluster. Could that be what I am seeing? Whatever it is, it is bright and strobing reds and blues.

It seems to be stationary. I watched it for about 15 minutes. I'll check it again in an hour or so.

Any ideas?

Could it be a police helicopter, maybe?

No. It's definitely not a helicopter of any kind.

It looks like a bright point of light (like a bright star) but instead of the normal "flicker" type of twinkling, it is strobing in reds and blues.

its a UFO space craft
they are up there every night

If you are going to watch it for a bit, ask it "give me a sign if you are a spaceship". It may give you a stronger blinking.

I would say: "take a photo" But they're never impressive. So grab a couple of family members or friends, and have you all witness it.

I did. I got the whole family out to look at it. Their theory? "Definitely a UFO". LOL. But seriously, the object is gone now. Although it may have moved behind the hills. It could just be a weird strobing star (or binary). Who knows?

Yeah but do they strobe red, light blue and dark blue like police lights? Maybe some do. I don't know. That's why I posted this thread.

Update!!!

Apparently, the object was probably just Sirius. Thanks to Phage over at the place where they "deny ignorance".
