Flying Giant Red Ball of Light.

Walking home last night from my job in the SOMA district, the moon was big, bright and beautiful. Zipping back and forth past the moonscape appeared what I believe was a helicopter. It seemed to be following this gigantic bright red ball of light.

At first sight, I thought it was a planet, like Venus, or even a traffic light. Oddly enough, the ball of light’s starting position was to the west side of the moon and gradually moved to the east side and then back again.

Maybe there’s an obvious and logical explanation for this phenomenon, but for the life of me, I could not think of one.
