Stationery light in the sky
As I was getting my morning newspaper, I saw what I thought was an airplane in the sky NE of me. Walking back to the house, I looked up and noticed the light had not moved.I stood there approx. 5 minutes to make sure it had not moved and then I walked another few steps and observed it thru' a gap in the tree foliage and it remained absolutely stationery. It did not seem to be flashing or making any form of movement.
After watching it for another 5 minutes or so, I concluded it must be a cell phone or other tower that I had not noticed inspite of it being very high and even though I have lived here for 30 + years.
When I went out later that day, I looked in that direction but there is no such structure where I had seen the lights. I have looked in that direction several times since and there is nothing there to have caused that light.
I am a very very normal everyday person (retired) and am puzzled and perhaps a tiny bit scared of what I may have seen. It was not a plane as it was not moving, too large to be a star (at least 10 times bigger than the North star) and way too high up to be a man made structure.
