Location: Paris, KY, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Lights on object

Walked out the back porch, looked at jupiter, a bright glow caught my the corner if my eye from the northeast, about 50 degrees to the east, over 100 degrees up from the horizon.

Thought it was a satillite that grew in brightness magnitude from a 5 to say 100 and back to a 5. (Is this what a flare from a satillite looks like? It was like a slow flash). The object carried on alomg its trajectory like other satillites ive seen in orbit, but ive never seen the flash from one before.
