I work security for a new car storage lot from 8pm till 6am daily, ive been doing this since january. every night i scan the sky for unknown objects. ive seen many satilites passing over head but there always a white lite. at approx 3;20am on 7/21 i noticed what i thought was a star rising to the east was changing colors rapidly and flashing. then to my surprise a smaller lite broke away from the main light and began to move rapidly around the supposed star. i grabbed my binos to have a better look and the smaller light appeared to dance around the parent star . not ever leaving the area surrounding tbe star constantly changing colors all the while. this went on for over a hour and then the smaller light rejoined the parent and and the colors subsided and the star returned to normal.
