Shooting Star turns into Bright red light. July22,1999. Pittsburg, California
There was about 10 people that night celebrating a birthday outside. Some people were drinking but others were'nt. I remember someone saying " Hey look, a shooting star ! " So everyone looked directly upwards and identified what we thought was a shooting star. It moved and looked like a shooting star. I mean, it was as far , far up in the sky and seemed like it was a star itself.
So everyone just went about there business afterwards. But about 3 minutes later someone noticed that the star was still shooting. I told everyone that it might just be a satalite or something. But boy was I wrong. It moved at the same speed as when we noticed earlier. But all of a sudden the "star' had moved from right above us to directly in front of us and it still looked like it was far away, like a star. I mean It looked and blended in like a star that we actually thaught it was one.
This is were it gets really weired. The"star' all of a sudden stops. I mean like a dead stop. It did not slow done at all. And then it grew in size and changed in color. It went from a small star to a big round light. Then, the color changed from white,orange and finally bright red. I mean that thing turned into a blinking stop light.
We could not believe what we were watching. Some how, this tiny shooting star had turned into a big,bright blinkin light. We watched this for about 10 minutes, then it started moving real fast. Within a blink of an eye it would shift directions. Up, down,left,right. A friend and I eventually followed it out to the street. Then all of a suddned, it vanished. Just like that. Poof.
To this day, i have not been able to find more witnesses,besides those who were there that night,toconfirm what we saw.
