| Bright star like light visible in daylight, faded to faint star at night. Right after sundown in the sw sky was an object resembling a bright star. The light was visible and very dominant in the blue sky right before it turned dark. As the sky grew darker the light started to glow orange. It made me think that whatever this was; it was between the earth and the sun and as the sun set further it lost it's brilliance and slowly turned orange and faded. As nighttime passed the light had completely faded to a star that had to be observed using averted vision. This light/star tracked perfectly with the background stars also and rotated out of view after about 9:00 P.M. I would agree that this could have been a weather balloon had it not tracked with the background stars and faded to a very dim star. |
