bright star-like form in sky to the west of another bright star or Venus, disappeared after 20 seconds
At 7:52 p.m. on Friday, October 9, I was walking south on the Redington Shores, FL, beach with my family when I looked up at the sky. There was a bright star in the south (looked bright like Venus). The unusual thing was that there was a second bright star (as bright as the other one) just to the west of the first one. I had never seen one there before. I told my daughter and she looked up. She continued on the walk, but I stopped and kept looking at the second star-like object. Since I had never seen anything like that before in the sky down here, I thought it might be a satellite, but it did not move at all. Then after about 20 seconds, the bright light dimmed and then it moved quickly out into the universe. It did not move in any other direction. Then, it was gone and the star or planet that is usually there was alone as usual. I saw something like that about 30 years ago in Kansas City, MO. It was on the 4th of July and someone called it to my! attention. We were out on a lake. The bright object went in a straight line, then made a 90 degree turn. After a few seconds it stopped as though it was watching the fireworks that were occurring over the lake. It made another 90 degree turn and then disappeared. A doctor and I watched that one occur. It was not a satellite either because it did not follow the curvature of the earth.
