I was cleaning off the deck on January 18, 2010, near 6:30 PM, when I noticed toward the east/southeast a very bright light. Since I know little about astronomy, I guessed it was something like Mars or Jupiter.
There was little cloud cover just wind. I just dismissed it, then looked up about 5 minutes later and it was much bigger and brighter.
I knew it wasn't a star or planet, and it didn't have a blinking light like every other airplane that goes over the house, so I knew something was off.
