[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 445773, member: 84"] Oh........and first night I did watch it move. It descended behind the treeline from fairly high in the sky within 15 mins or so, much too fast for the moon. Maybe it's not the moon. That would explain why at other times during the night the moon didn't look anything like that. But if it's not the moon, what the heck [B]is it[/B]?? The reason I checked the moon earlier was to see if it would be the same, in other words, if it [B]was[/B] the moon at all. I can't judge size in the sky except by other things I normally see in the sky. Far far too big for aircraft, and it did appear to be at a distance while also closer than the moon or sun normally is. At least the size of the sun, maybe at times appearing even larger. Just this BIG presence in the sky that lights up the whole night. I remember also wondering if the odd color and the appearance of being huge could be the light of the sun playing on the moon somehow......but like I said I don't know squat about such things. I've seen harvest moons and they're amazing. This was not that, or did not look like what I've seen as a harvest moon, be it in the summer or fall. Although I do admit I've never seen a red moon, either. This thing when you see it gives you an "it's up waaaaay too close" type feeling. Nichole is going to bring her camera tomorrow so I can try to catch a picture of it. My camera works when it feels like it, which isn't often, and only when you hit it just right. ugh lol But I also don't get a feeling it's a UFO thing. It's like a presence, something in the sky that should not be there, but doesn't give me the impression of machinery type thing. When it's really bright it's actually hard to look at because it hurts my eyes. [/QUOTE]
