Sighting Reports 2009 Erratic Moving Red Light Seen in Night Sky
Date of Sighting: November 25, 2009
Time of Sighting: 11 PM PST
Location of Sighting: San Bruno, California (Near San Francisco International Airport)
Description: There was a red light which seemed to be moving slowly west, away from our location. It stopped momentarily, changed directions as if it was going to turn and make a circle, stopped again, and then moved a little more west. It did this two or three times then came to stop for approximately 5 minutes. Then it began to move west again very slowly and steadily towards the coast until it disappeared out of sight over the San Bruno Hills. The distance of the object was unknown. We were located on El Camino Real at the Tanforan shopping center. It was a little before 11 PM when we noticed it.
Note: I can't say what the witnesses saw, but at least a few pilots should have witnessed it given that the sighting was very close to San Francisco Airport. One wonders if the light has any connection to airport traffic?
