Mystery lights return to Saratoga
|

A beautiful apparition has been glowing in the night sky over
|
|
Saratoga,leaving viewers baffled and entranced. About 15 people, all
|
|
agog, called Santa Clara County dispatchers on Tuesday night to report
|
|
a mysterious bright red light that hovered in the sky from 8:15 to 8:30
|
|
and then disappeared. Dozens of callers described a similar phenomenon
|
|
on Oct. 16, same time, same place. "It was very exciting," said Maureen
|
|
Denton of Los Gatos, who watched last week's display during a break in
|
|
her real estate class at West Valley College. "It was very bright, much
|
|
larger than the lights you see on airplanes. At one point, something
|
|
burning or flickering dropped from it. It was just a tiny little
|
|
flicker that came down. We all went: `Oooh, what was that?'" No one
|
|
seems to know. That includes Vicki Yauger of Saratoga, who spied the
|
|
object Tuesday night while lounging with her husband in thier backyard
|
|
spa. Yauger said the light appeared high in the northwestern sky, first
|
|
moving toward them, then away. Through her binoculars, the apparition
|
|
became a cluster of lights. "It was scary. When it started getting
|
|
larger, it seemed to be coming down," she said. Yauger didn't see the
|
|
object fade from view because she had just gone into the house. Her
|
|
husband told her the light turned green and slowly disappeared.
|
|
Spokesmen at Moffett Field Naval Air Station said nothing flew out of
|
|
their airfield Tuesday that looked like that. And officials at
|
|
Vandenberg Air Force Base in Lompoc said they didn't launch a thing
|
|
Tuesday night. Ditto for Oct. 15. Other watchers of the night sky -
|
|
air traffic controllers and astronomers at Lick Observatory - said they
|
|
saw nothing unusual.
