Myself and my mother were sitting on her porch talking last night, and I started watching what I though was a helicopter at first in the distance. I then noticed it started bouncing up and down and I interrupted my mom and made her watch with me. We both then witnessed it change direction from W to E abruptly and then stop and hover. While the object was stationary in the sky, it began to pulsate light! Bright! Like we were scared there was an explosion it got so big and bright! Then it got pretty dim and looked as though it either landed or at least came close to, we couldn't see what it did over the trees. Then, all of the sudden, it shot up into the sky and was gone! It was crazy!!! And we BOTH saw it!!! It was amazing, we both agree, it was not anything from around here!!
