Strange bright lights in sky over rural area in Katy Texas.

At approximately 6:00 PM at our apartment balcony, my mother and I saw what we thought was a very bright star in the sky.(**We have been seeing this light for several consecutive nights now**). At first my mother thought it was the North Star, but then we realized that the light was in the Western sky. We began to look at it more closely, and to our amazement, it appeared to be slowly shifting back and forth as well as downward.At this point we decided to look at it through our binoculars. The light appeared through the binoculars to be a bright white light at first , but as it slowly descended, the color changed to more of a yellow light near the bottom, with a definite red light near the side, and a faint blue light on top.

We continued to watch this light for over 2 hours as it slowly descended from high in the sky, to just above the tree tops. At this point we decided to get in the car to get a better view before it disappeared behind the trees. As we traveled down the road we kept looking up to try to find the light. At first we couldn't see it, so we thought we had passed it because of the trees blocking our view. We then turned around, went back up the road, and saw the light, so we decided to turn on a side road to get a better view. We pulled off the side of the road to look at it. After looking at it for only a few seconds, the light quickly faded out followed by several red blinks of light, and then nothing.

At this point another bright light caught our attention in the Southeastern sky. We quickly took out the binoculars to get a better look at it. To our amazement the lights were the same as the lights we had witnessed previously. We then drove back home, keeping our eyes on the light. When we got home, we got out of the car, and looked at the sky in the same direction and there it was. At this point, another bright light caught our attention directly above us that was even brighter and closer. We looked at it through the binoculars and saw that it had the same type of lights. As we gazed at the night sky we spotted 5 more of these strange lights throughout the sky.

*It should be noted that these lights at first glance appear to be bright stars. Only after careful observation does one notice that these lights are not stars.
