Was standing in kitchen at 3:00am, looking-out window to west, about 20-30 degrees above horizon when just right of where I was looking (if I were to draw a line from my location on a map to where 'IT' appeared, the line would point very close towards Vandenberg AFB), BUT, what I saw also suddenly made me remember that I saw the same sort of flash earlier, on evening of 22nd!
DESCRIPTION: First,& most notably, IT did not move! as bright as lightning, but the color of an incandescant bulb, yellow-orange flame, or visible, warm-light! IT was NOT in the upper atmosphere! IT also appeared as a round 'pulse' in the sky perhaps the size of a fist held up & out! Oh, & not a cloud anywhere in the sky right now!
So I was now putting the flash I'd seen earlier with this, as both were the same & standing INSIDE at my sliding glass door, scanning the sky w-my eyes, when:
At about 10-15 minutes after the 3:00am flash, my patio & east-facing garage wall "lit-up" with TWO (2) consecutive 'pulses' of the same light, each 'pulse' lasting maybe a half-second each! Oh, & BTW, when I was scanning the sky between the two sightings, I DID see a 'shooting-star' streak across he sky & any similarities is 0 percent
SOMETHING IS MOST DEFINATELY 'FLASHING' IN THE SKY IN THE PAST FEW DAYS, & I DON'T BELIEVE THEY'RE ORIGINATING IN SPACE, UNLESS THEY ARE SOME KIND-OF SUPER-NOVA EXPLOSIONS OR SOMETHING, BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT WOULD FIT THE DESCRIPTION OF WHAT I HAVE NOW SEEN 4 TIMES IN A 24-HOUR PERIOD!
