Reported: 2007-10-13 11:24 Pacific
Duration: 15 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Lubec, ME, USA

Shape: Circle

Low flying bright object appeared to zigzag and hover.

Appeared as a shooting star, but going about 30 to 40% of the speed and did not leave a trail. It came from the west, and was flying low to the horizon. At first I thought it was a shooting star, but then it seemed to zigzag. I was seated on an a lawn chair on a slope overlooking a bay; there was not much obscuring my view except a clump of pine trees. The star disapeared behind the stand of trees. I thought it had fizzled. A full two to three seconds elapsed, and it reappeared going the same direction and same speed, toward grand Manan. I shouted " You're not supposed to do that!".
