Good night everyone.:ugeek:

Few minutes ago I was out and look up to the sky and watched a white object for about 3-6 seconds and then it banished. :shock:

I really believe it was a comet, but I was checking and there is nothing for this date :?

By the way, I live in Mexico. :!:

If anyone knows what was that I would be very pleasured. :D

Thanks to everyone.

Sounds like an Iridium Flare. That's a reflection from the Antenna on a series of about 70 satellites used for expensive communication services. The reflection from the sun typically lasts 5-15 seconds, and can be brighter than anythything in the sky except the sun and moon when the angle is perfect.
