    Apparently these bright lights in the sky during the fourth of July never died out like the other lights known as fireworks.

    I don't know, what magic IS this?

    Flares? I saw a lot of people shoot flares last night. That could be it

    Hey ToyCen, how do you believe in UFOs, yet your sigs represent Christian music....

    Weird combination. :confused:

    I walked outside around 9 o'clock or so to watch the fireworks and a constant, very bright white light continued motionless and without any sound while I was outside enjoying the display of fireworks.

    I live in NE Houston and this was W, maybe WNW. Looked quite a bit higher than any planes nearby (IAH isn't very far, most planes you see/hear are fairly low) but much larger and brighter (looked closer) than any stars in the night sky. There was no movement at all, no flashing lights, just a constant white glare. I didn't stay outside to see if it "left" and I have no idea how long it was there before I came outside to enjoy the fireworks. I went back inside around 10 and it was in the same position as when I first saw it.

    Do we have any astronomy buffs? Are there any planets visable or otherwise notable objects in the sky?

    I showed my wife and had a couple of others take a look through my binocs ( I don't own a telescope or any modern video equipment) and didn't have any answers as to what it was. I was more amazed at how bright it was than anything else...Significantly brighter than any star...

    I only looked at the first couple of those links, but it doesn't look like what I saw last night.

    What was it? I don't know. It could be nothing out of the ordinary at all, but it was on my mind when I loaded up CF.net today ;-)

    Christians can't believe in UFOs? The entire bible is full of flying objects that came from other worlds.

    Yeah I'm wondering what's with the supposed disconnect between Christianity and alien life.

    Also, there probably couldn't be worse timing for a reported UFO sighting.

    my uncle recorded a bright light in the sky that when you tried zooming in it would move. Im serious as hell, I saw it personal but don't think nothing of it. This happened about 3 years ago.

    I think the problem with "UFO's" is that is seems very difficult for people to take it seriously at all.

    It very well could have been a star, which is why I was asking if there was any specific event that would have been noticed last night. This 'looked' much lower than a typical 'star'. Bigger than any others in the night sky, which makes me believe this was closer.

    We'll see.

    I guess even aliens want to come watch a good fireworks show...


    Either that or they think we're attacking them with our fireworks and they're about to annihilate us.

    No matter how sad life may get, I can always think of this cf member and know I don't have it that bad.
