Occurred : 4/3/2017 02:28 (Entered as : 04/03/17 2:28) Reported: 4/3/2017 5:24:28 PM 17:24 Posted: 4/7/2017 Location: Wenatchee, WA Shape: Disk Duration: 45 minutes Characteristics: There was an aura or haze around the object
Bright star blinked out and reappeared in new location twice. I awoke late at night and went to the kitchen to get a drink, then decided I wanted a cup of tea, so I put the water on and sat down at the table. I have two large windows 3ft×6ft one faces east and slightly South, the other South and slightly West, so I have a great deal of sky visible, I often sky watch at night. Last night was cloudy and I noticed no stars were visible from the East window as I put the water on but when I sat down one VERY bright star was in the southern sky. I watched it for a few minutes wondering what star it was and noticed it seemed to be bouncing around just a bit so I decided to take a video of it. It didn't turn out well, as I couldn't keep it centered (that's all on me) so I took a couple of snapshots of it and was trying to video it again, when it simply blinked out! While I was contemplating what had just happened, I made my tea and sat down to look at the pictures I had taken and was stunned by the saucer shaped object quite plainly there where the star should have been. I didn't see it while looking at it with just my eyes. I sat drinking my tea, watching out of the window when when I saw it again about 60 degrees west and much higher. I quickly took several more photos this was about 3:15am. It blinked out again and appeared farther away yet and my cellphone camera could no longer photograph it.
