NUFORC Sighting 81692

Occurred: 2011-06-07 21:29 Local
Reported: 2011-06-07 18:46 Pacific
Duration: 4 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Huntington, NY, USA

Shape: Flash
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aircraft nearby

Flashing light, not an aircraft or shooting star. Rapid directional change.

I was taking photographs of the stars, long exposures, at night. I saw what I thought was a shooting star in my peripherals, and just like a shooting star, it came and went in about a second.

Then, I saw it flash again, and again, in a straight line. I thought it was a plane, the average light flashing. However, it was moving at an amazing speed. I noticed it didn't have red/green lights. Just one white light.

When it flashed again, it had changed course by about 30 degrees in a span of time nothing of my knowledge could have done. It changed course in between flashes.

Then, it stopped flashing and disappeared.

It was my first sighting I'm sure of.
