I have been observing this "object" on and off for over 5 months.It appears as a bright "star" in the west/northwest sky (from my vantagepoint) that varies in intensity from very bright to fading into the darkness.I have observed this object through a telescope and, at first glance, saw a crystalline structure that changed as the object pulsed and changed color.The colors ranged from yellow to green and to red. I went to get my wife and looked at the object again only to see a perfect yellow/orange sphere that appeared to have "energy" flowing across the surface.
