I saw what I can describe as a silent, stationary beacon in the night sky make a single revolution and vanish.I do not want to sound like one of those kooks that probably contact your agency all the time, but I have seen something that is a mystery to me.I am a retired Federal employee (34 years USACE) and I have always had a fascination with aviation, military aircraft, the space program and the heavenly bodies above. I've always got a eye on the sky (day or night). For health purpose, I walk at night in my small town neighborhood. Tonight, 3 Aug 2014, at approx. 9:15pm Central time, I saw what I can only describe as a silent, stationary beacon in the night sky (like a lighthouse at sea) make a single revolution and disappear with no further sight or sound. I pulled my cellphone and checked my “PlaneFinder” app, and as I expected, there was nothing there. The truly amazing aspect of this event is that it occurred once before while I was walking at night, at roughly the same time in August of 2004. Almost exactly ten years ago.I live in northwest Mississippi, 30 mile south of Memphis International. We get a lot of FedEx traffic in the evenings so I’m quite familiar with their aircraft, their lighting and their sounds. And helicopters are extremely audible. Nothing that I know of in aviation, silently turns in place with an extremely bright search light that points downward.What do we have in our inventory that can cause such an occurrence? Thanks,
