I had gotten up at midnight, and as always, before returning to bed, I looked up at the clear night sky. (Have seen ufo's once before). The object was immediately noticeable as it was very bright and much larger than surrounding stars. Unmagnified,it looked like an orb, but was not golden the way the ones I'd seen before had looked. The light was white. No blinking or pulsing. I got my cell phone, set it to camera, put it on telephoto, and snapped a couple of shots. Even seeing the results on the camera was surprising, in that the shape was un orb like, with a sort of notch out of it and black forms on the surface. I thought of the space station, decided to reserve judgment till morning. The object got smaller and farther away as I watched. I gave up and went to bed. Got up and almost immediately uploaded images. I use Zoner photo program, which is pretty good. First I enlarged it, which accentuated the odd shape. And then I enhanced the contours, which really blew my mind.
