Multicolored large, bright object in Southeast sky over Lockport Illinois.

There was a object hovering in the Southeast sky on Monday Dec 19 2005 over Lockport IL.

It was higher then an airplane but lower then stars. It was quite large in relation to stars or planes. It flashed blue, green, and white.

On the zoom lense of my video camera it looked like a ball of energy--with a center core of white light. (Like the toy they sell at the mall--the sphere where if you put your hand on it all of the light goes to your fingers).

We have hours of video tape and could not stop watching this mystery.

That night we also saw several red pin sized dots all over the sky.

We called the police and they could not explain what it was.

I would like to know what this is!
