Flashing Lights Around A Very Bright Moon
Perfectly clear night here in South Florida. The moon was fully illuminated with a very bright crescent at the bottom http://www.stardate.org/nightsky/moon/ The sun light that was hitting the moon allowed me to see the entire moons shape. The moon was low on the northwest horizon, about 30 degrees. On the north side of the moon I could see 4-5 very faint lights that appeared to flash, move erratically and change color. My vision is excellent and I'm not sure if this is an atmospheric phenomenon or what? I would guess anyone staring at the moon tonight would easily see what I saw. Is it distant stars that appear to flash due to the upper level winds and clouds?
