Bright Star Like Shape with red and green blinking lights.

This could be nothing but I was looking out our large picture window at almost midnight of April 10, 2014. I noticed what looked like a very bright star in the NE sky.

Then I noticed red and green blinking lights every so often so then I thought it must be a plane. This object never moved, however; just hung in the sky with intermittent blinking red and green lights ever so faint.

I watched this for about 15 minutes and this object moved very slightly left to right but usually settled back in its original spot. I can only think satellite or weather balloon, but truly have no idea.

I blinked my eyes many times and looked away from this object to make sure I was not imagining anything. Looking at the stars in the sky, they were much fainter and certainly did not have green and red lights flashing.

I thought maybe it was an illusion of clouds dancing off the bright star, but the other stars did not have any clouds affecting them nearby, so that theory was shot.

Again, I do not know what it was and maybe it was a satellite or weather balloon, but I felt it worth reporting.
