Shape: Light

bright light acceleratesat a high rate of speed.

i live right outside of wasilla ak- - on the west end -off of parks highway-

i had stepped out side to do some stargazing - because there will not be many more nights before the light takes over.- -i was looking to the east - and high up about a 70 degree angle - - i saw a bright light that looked to be about 30000 up - this bright light was traveling in a west south -west direction.

i thought at frist it was a commerical airline that was coming into anchorage- - although, the light was a lot brighter than it would be for a com.air-craft. the object then appeared to turn up ward at about a 45 degree angle- then it gained alot of speed - and it just went out of sight.i was very amazed at the high rate of speed at which this light traveled- - - the whole event lasted about eight sec.- - -

wow!- i shall remember this one.
