Flashes in sky

On march 7th about 8:00pm in the south sky, between the three stars of Orions belt and Betelgeuse I saw a flash in the sky. At first I thought it was a meteor, then I saw it again (just a flash). I saw the flash about 9 times and about one minute apart for about 15 minutes.

I could not tell if it was moving because they were only flashes and appeared to stay in the same spot. At one point I got my binoculars to see a little better. It seemed to be up above the level planes fly. I know satellites move but this was no satellite. Meteors wouldn’t stay in the same spot.

Do you have any idea what that could have been? Any input from you would be appreciated.

Thanks
