I saw something wierd tonight and am hoping someone can shed
some light. At 12:45am while looking for M57 in Lyra
something came across my FOV. It was a fairly bright point of light that was pulsing like a beacon growin dimmer and brighter as it moved along at a brisk pace. I had a C8 with a 32mm plossl with a 52 degree FOV and it moved thru it in
about 3.5 to 4 seconds. I tracked it for about 20 seconds and lost it, seemed to be moving north.
I've seen a few of these, one the other night and moving much faster, but the pulsing is whats got my curiosity on
this one. Any takers ??
