This object was very bright upon initial sighting about 9:05 pm and it moved towards the north slightly, by 925pm it had droppped closer to the horizon but had lost half of it's brillance, it appeared to be moving away. It passed over a streetlight at the 12 o'clock position and moved down to a 5 o'clock position from the streetlight when it moved back up to almost a 3 o'clock position from the streetlight. By 940pm it dropped down until it appeared to go below the horizon. During this entire event, the object seemed to be changing colors from a red to an orange to yellow and even light green and blue.
