Sorry alien lovers
, no, probably not a real one but the term still fits.
Was out tonight looking around waiting for Saturn to come up. About 11:30 wandered over to M65/6 area to have a look and while I was focusing in on them I noticed a little white blip in my ep.
At first I wasn't sure what it was and thought I was seeing things but after a while I noticed it travelling slowly across my ep. Single blips came at about an average of 3 to 4 secs. It was moving quite slowly (not like a usual see it now, see it not, satellite) in a NNW direction.
I'm guessing it's some kind of aircraft flying at altitude (couldn't see it with the naked eye) ? A plane spotted after this, that was leaving Perth, had a white tail light but it was flashing every second or faster. So I was a little confused by the variation of intervals.
Any aviation buffs out there with some information to help confirm what I saw.?
Regards
Simmo
