[/quote] So, I'm searching about venus bouncing and spinning and so forth, and I'm not really finding anything. they talk about the strange orbit, but I'm not talking about that. the dang thing bounces like a ball,then goes the other way back and forth. It's a lot easier to believe it's a space ship. [/quote]

I've been seeing this for several weeks. it seems to be there between about 10 p.m. to midnight give or take a bit, mountain standard time. looking southwest. I only noticed because the skies where I live tend to be washed out from all the city lights and this was bright and I wanted to see if it twinkled, if it was a planet or star. Looks twinkly to me, but as I was watching, it suddenly started moving irradically, bouncing up, down back forth, circular in a very pronounced manner. You just have to keep staring at it a few seconds and it will start. it's a little past midnight here and I went to see if it's still there. it was smaller than before and maybe faded away by now but whenever I happen to check on it late at night, I usually see it and it always behaves in the same manner. I don't know any planets or stars that bounce. Anybody else?
