A bright light that raced across the sky and suddenly shot upward and dissapeared.
I saw a white light race across the sky and then shoot up and dissapear. This light was low and it shot up before a hill. It was very strange, it looked like a shooting star, but changed directions rapidly.
I am not sure what it was and was mostly wondering if anyone else had seen or reported this? There is an airport on the other side of the hill, but I have not seen a plane move that fast in the sky before? I am mostly curious.
