Duration: 7 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Paso Robles, CA, USA

Shape: Flash
Characteristics: Lights on object

I went out to get the mail. When I looked up I saw a very bright light in the sky. My first thought was that it was a really bright star. The I realized it was moving and it couldn't be a star. The light got mor intense and then it dimed to a faint light and disappeared upward. I heard now sound even though the object was almost overhead.

NUFORC Note:

The report is reminiscent of the flash caused by an Iridium satellite. One of our contributors may investigate whether this may have been an Iridium.
