Change of Location Pit n Pole for Observing Nov 7th 2015
Change of location. A group of 3 to 4 right now including me are going to Pit n Pole tonight. DRESS WARM if you come. Humidity is okay there but temps will be in the upper 20's to low 30's tonight. -- Thanks! Jay
I was deciding between there and the much closer but not as dark Mount Timpanogos. I think I will make the longer journey. On Sat, Nov 7, 2015 at 3:14 PM, JayLEads <jayleads@gmail.com> wrote:

If you haven't seen it yet here is our UFO from last night. I can't believe it was so far away but it certainly seems to match what we saw. On Sat, Nov 7, 2015 at 3:17 PM, Joel Stucki <joel.stucki@gmail.com> wrote:

Don't see anything. Attachments aren't allowed on this board, so maybe that's the reason Saw news reports of a rocket firing visible into Utah, mostly seen in in Arizona.

Sorry I seem to have forgotten the link. We all thought it was a local phenomenon coming from Dougway. It appears it was over the Pacific. Also reported on KSL and videos all over YouTube. Most in urban settings saw only a few moments at the beginning five of us at pit n pole watched it in binoculars and Jay's 17.5" scope for at least 15 minutes. Others who arrived later reported seeing the cloud as they drove. At first we thought it was a helicopter with a search light. It was that bright. There was not fog in the area so we thought it might be dust it was illuminating but then the "searchlight" faded and the glow did not. This was the point when urban observers thought the show over but it was actually just getting started. The residual glow from the cloud of fuel remained for another 20 minutes directly over the Milky Way making it a bit hard to decide when it finally ended. It expelled a large glowing cloud near the horizon in the general direction of Sagittarius and thick vapor trail appearing to originate from the nearby ground then a small object was seen leaving the cloud at an upward 45 degree angle toward the north. It maneuvered changing directions several times as it traveled roughly north. It continued to expel smaller amount of glowing vapor in. Cone shape from one end, then in an hourglass shape from both ends. It then spun slowly on it axis a few times then we observed a cone shape from one end and glowing waves from the opposite end. It was truly odd. http://www.geekwire.com/2015/trident-missile-launch-sparks-ufo-freak-out-in-... On Sun, Nov 8, 2015 at 10:38 AM, Joan Carman <jcarman6@q.com> wrote:

Thanks Joel for the terrific report. Wish I had seen it. Reads like something worthy of a UFO mystery. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joel Stucki" <joel.stucki@gmail.com> To: "Utah Astronomy" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Cc: "Utah Astronomy" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Sunday, November 8, 2015 10:57:43 AM Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Change of Location Pit n Pole for Observing Nov 7th 2015 Sorry I seem to have forgotten the link.
