Very large and bright flash at treeline - directly in front of me
I was with a friend looking at the stars in an empty and dark field. We were pretty acclimatized to the darkness and were able to see very well at this point. My friend was looking slightly to the left of where the object appeared (if it was at 12 o'clock, she was looking in the 10 o'clock direction). I was looking directly in that area.
All of a sudden this HUGE bright light just "exploded" in the sky right at treeline. It was very bright and very intense, but there was no sound associated with it. It was yellow-ish and white.
We came back to the area about 40 minutes later after investigating surrounding areas with no luck. I saw the flash a second time after spending another 5-10 minutes looking in the sky. The second time it was a very quick flash of light...bright, but not as large, and above treeline a little farther up in the sky.
