No of observers: 1

Location: Tomball, TX, USA

Shape: Light

Light in nightsky

Tomball, Texas, which is just north and west of the Houston area. I am near Hooks Airport; this not like anything I have ever seen from the airport. I was just about to go to bed when I happen to look at the sky through the blinds at an object that was in the due east night sky about 45 degrees up and very high. I thought it might be Venus- but I am not sure. So I watched and over about 15 mins it did appear to be moving towards the west and slightly to the south. The angle from me to the object increased. At this point I went and got my digital camera and shot several pictures with the flash, until I could remember how to turn that function off and shot several more pictures. I will send the pictures later when I have time. I watched this object for almost 30 mins(in total) as I said before it could be Venus or something else.
