There was something astonishing happening in the clear night sky on July 2012. One this day I was observing the moon for some time. I wasn't expecting to see anything except celestial objects, planes, or satellites. However, I saw something more than that in the night sky. Something was happening out there in front of the stars. However, whatever was happening, I missed most of it. As I looked back in the telescope, I noticed
white sparks taking place of the object-appearing, vanishing, and glimmering. Perhaps something had disintegrated. Then I saw nothing. The view came back to normal. Then I knew that I had missed something. This happened about 45 degrees in the sky, so NO this wasn't a firework. Something was happening in space.
My apologies for getting the year wrong, but it's fixed.
Honestly, looking back on this, I forgot to mention a couple of interesting features. 1) the object would fit 200 or more times inside the lunar disk, & 2) The shapes were intriguing, as they had curved & straight edges, which is remarkably alike to what one would see in the shape of crumpled paper, tin, or other thin material.
