I was traveling east on I-84 from Hermiston to Pendleton after work. I noticed a bright light that appeared at first to be a very bright star. As I got closer and it got bigger, I realized that it wasn't a star. It was a bright light with a hazy aura surrounding it. It stayed fixed above Pendleton.

I took 3 pictures and was trying to get home so I could look at it through a scope. As I dropped into Pendleton, it rose higher until it disapeared.
