My husband and i were in our backyard around 9 pm. we often watch the skies both during daylight and nighttime. we have seen some amazing things! i first noticed a rapidly moving light which i took to be another ufo. it was headed towards a group of several stars. it was flying in a straight line. to my surprise, the apparent star shot out a brilliant white light at the ufo. it was not a laser beam straight-edged type light. the ufo took off in the opposite direction. i was so excited! after a lifetime of sky-watching i had never seen anything like this before. i regret that i have no photo or video of the very brief event. but it is something i will never forget.
