Stationary blinking light
At about 9:30 pm this evening (5/9/10) I looked up and noticed a white light "blink" on an off (quickly). I continued my star gazing and noticed the same blinking light in the exact same place about a minute later. I've seen satalites, the I.S.S. etc passing over and I've even noticed occasional "flashes" of increased light from these which I assume is related to the rotation of mirrors or something catching the sun's rays. This incident is different. I continued to watch the light blink on and off every minute or a bit longer continually for an hour, and always in the exact same spot in the clear nite sky. I imagine it's still doing so even as I write this. Can you tell me if there is any type of natural or man made phenominon that can occur in this fashion? It's got me curious as all get out!
