Thanks for looking at it. It is just so strange that the picture even came out like this. I have had one other picture last year that looked like a string of amber sausage, but not in a defined shape.

This observation and photo was nearly due south and at a low angle 20 degrees at the most. It would have to be flying sideways for it to be a boomerang shape. It has never looked like more than a bright light by eye.

I had taken this on the 22nd, but just looked at them yesterday. It has been cloudy almost every night since. Tonight is clear and Thursday nights have been the busiest on average it seems to me. Maybe tonight I will get more shots.

I have not sent any more lately because nothing was different. This picture for some reason came out this way. The pictures before and after are like the many I have taken and sent you in the past. I was told after posting my last ones on you tube that it was the TR-3B.

This is the first time I had such a change between frames. This is taken at 1/25 sec and a lot was going on in the sky at the time, like maneuvers or something.

So let me know if you have had any recent sightings like this one. I am sending 2 pictures of the same thing. I have many more, but are pretty much like the non-boomerang kind.

I have seen strange, big lights out to the northwest from this same vantage point. This is the silent one. When I see the big light show toward the northwest however, I hear a rumble like a shuttle takeoff, as best I can describe but in the distance.

I have attributed that rumble to possible military stuff. Surely it is all ours, but since this is the first time like this one. A camera jiggle just does not seem to explain the picture. What do you think it is?
