One of my friends was looking at the stars and noticed that one of them seemed to be moving pretty fast...

Two friends and I were standing outside of my house in Montreal, Quebec at around 3am. It was a nice clear night at the end of June, and I didn't notice any cloud's in the sky.

One of my friends was looking up at the stars and noticed that one of them seemed to be moving pretty fast. It looked too high up to be a plane, it looked more like a satellite.

We all started watching it move South-west for a about a minute or two when it just stopped and sat there for a few seconds. All of a sudden it lit up till it was brighter then any other star or planet in the sky. It stayed a bright-white color for about 4-5 seconds and then just as suddenly dimmed back down to it's original brightness.

What happend next was the strangest thing of all; it all of a sudden vanished in a thin 'streak' of red light. If you had blinked you would have missed it.

All three of us were looking at this thing when it happend and we all saw the same thing.
