Lake George, Colorado - August, 2010

My name is Rudy Marmaro. I was camping last weekend with my wife, daughter, and a family that we know well. We were out a bit west of Lake George.

While we were hanging around the campfire, I took to looking at the sky. I love looking at stars and like to see if I can see satellites and other phenomena. I also have trained my eyes to cue in on movement due to many years hunting experience.

So, I was looking up at the sky while we were all talking and I saw a very small star apparently move.

However, it was not an airplane, (I saw several while we were there) and it was not a satellite, as I have seen many of those as well.

This star was moving back and forth, up and down, diagonally, slow and fast. The funny thing was it stayed in a fairly well defined area.

As I looked up, the area of movement would be similar to holding up a tennis ball at arm's length. Within this area, this star moved erratically, and was not predictable.

For a while no one else could see what I was pointing out, but my wife and the mother of the other family finally saw what I was seeing.

They also said they could see this star move back and forth, up and down, fast and slow, etc.

I don't know if anyone else has seen such a thing, or if anyone else reported seeing something unusual on Saturday, August 21st, 2010.

I just wanted to know if you have heard of anything like this.

I pride myself in being observant, and an amateur astronomer. I am very interested in space and astronomy, and love to look at stars. Also know that I was a data analyst, and am able to observe things.

I would be interested in your opinion.

Thank you very much,

Rudy Marmaro
