On Wednesday night, September 21, 2016, @ 7:40PMCT, about 40 minutes after sundown, I was viewing the sky from the middle Tennessee area, looking in the far North West of a clear sky and I saw a star like object appear as bright as Venus for about 4 to 5 seconds, and gradually disappear. The sighting appeared to be stationary, not moving in any direction, simply appeared and disappeared.

I am wondering if this sighting could have been a caused by the reflective surface on a geostationary or communication satellite?




NUFORC Note:

One of two sighting reports submitted by the same source. The witness's other sighting also occurred in Nashville, TN, and is posted to our database of sighting reports for October 22nd, 2016, at 2040 hrs.. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he seemed to us to be quite sober-minded. We suspect that he is a quite credible witness. PD
