Initial data
After a whole day with friends, shopping at garage sales and laundry, the author of the original material went to watch the sky with friends around 21:30 or so... until about 23:40, seven satellites were spotted.
But I also saw several objects or light sources that behaved differently. At eleven minutes to eleven, I saw a moving light flash to a dim, bright glow as it passed the Big Dipper, and then went out and disappeared as it headed north.
Then, around 23:25, when I was looking in a south-southwest direction, I noticed one bright flash of light between a semicircle of stars, low above the horizon. I kept searching in case I saw anything else, but I didn't see anything after that.
At that time, my friends were busy studying other parts of the sky. We went home around 23:40.
Original news
Date: Saturday, June 6
Location: Sudbury, Ontario
After a full day of having breakfast with my friends, shopping around at garage sales and getting my wash done, I went out sky-watching with my pals at around 9:30 p.m. or so...until about 11:40 p.m. In total, we spotted seven satellites. But I also saw a couple of objects or light sources that behaved differently. At eleven minutes to eleven, I saw a moving light flare up to a dull bright glow as it passed the Big Dipper, and then faded and disappeared as it headed north. Then, at around 11:25 p.m., as I was looking in a south-southwest direction, I noticed a single bright flash of light in between a semi-circle of stars, low to the horizon. I kept looking in case I'd see something else, but I didn't see anything after that. My friends were busy looking at other areas of the sky at the time. We headed home at around 11:40 p.m.
