| Flashing red light moving slowly At 6:31 p.m., I stepped out on my patio off of my bedroom to have a cigarette. I looked up into the southern sky and noticed a red flashing light ( There was not a rythm or pattern to how it was blinking)in the sky(at about 30 - 35 degrees from the horizon) It was moving slowly towards the east / north. My line of sight of the object was about to be blocked by the corner of the apartment, so I ran out to my other patio (off of the living room) so I could have an unobstructed view. After a couple of minutes, it was still blinking but seemed to have stopped moving and the light would go out for longer dueations ( 1 - 2 second) and just stopped all together. I stood outside for about another 5 minutes to see if it would come back, the object did not but I did see two planes flying at a high altitude, one coming from the east and the other coming from the north. The plane from the east flew very close to where the object had been, and the plane coming from the north turned west just about where I had seen the object ( about 10 seconds before the west bound plane). |
