at approx. 3 am while watching the night sky with my wife i saw several faint blinks of light out of the corner of my eye and when i shifted my sight to that direction i observed an image that can be explained by physics. near where the second to the last star in the big dipper handle is came a sharp crisp blue flash and then out of that came an object that looked exactly like a satelite as the flash disappeared. this object moved about the same rate as regular satelites we observe and the appearence was about the same, a small lit dot crossing the sky. however this "satelite" did not return on path as others do. other satelites were visable for another hour. if an object was coming at us fast i think the blue shift would apply and that explains it and as it slowed it became just white light. we average about 500 hrs a yr of sky watching this is our second report in two years. something from out there came here last night. or maybe its just us coming back?
