loud explosions by white star like light

I heard several loud explosions with the same interval of time between each. I went out on the porch and observed a white light which looked like a star. It was hard to judge it's distance but it exploded every 3-4 seconds and dimmed.I was looking east towards Santa Clara along Evelyn Ave.This same phenomena also happened on Feb. 7th 1991. This time at 22:30 (approx.) After 15-20 minutes a C-141 came from the north and flew around the area. I talked to a 7-11 cashier closer to the event who jumped under the counter he was so scared, this was several days later. Probably police reports filed on this one.
