Duration: 30 min

Location: North Hollywood, CA, USA

Shape: Light

star like point of light slowly travelling across the sky in 1954

As 12 year old in 1954 I was sleeping in the back yard. While gazing up at the stars I noticed a very small point of steady white light moving upward from just above the horizon. Its appearance was like a very dim star.

It slowly traveled across the sky and after about 30 minutes it disappeared. If it had been a few years later I would have assumed it was a satellite.

Bright flash in bellingham area.

A flash of light lit my whole house. My dog freaked out.

At the same time a friend who lives 15 miles away witnessed this same light and his dog freaked out, as well.

I was wondering if anyone else noticed this. I have never seen a UFO and don't nessasarly beleive in them, but I can not think of another explaination. My girlfriend has witnessed a similar occurence. Winter lighting???

Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
