So, I'm trying to see if it's going to let off some greater light tonight or do something that resembles what happened yesterday. 09:03: Speaker: So, it looks like... can't be for sure, but it looks like there's... maybe it's maybe separating. It's like two distinct lights in that orb. 10:03: Speaker: Any minute now, it's going to shoot away. I'm kind of curious to see if I can catch that on camera. I've seen it twice where it'll just disappear in an instant at like supersonic speed. 12:29: Speaker: Just don't understand what that is. 13:23: Speaker: Okay, now we're moving. 13:32: Speaker: Okay, it's moving to the west... at a pretty decent speed. 13:53: Speaker: Looks like it's got a... pretty good-sized beam coming off of it, too. 14:20: Speaker: Okay, it's definitely moving towards me. 14:27: Speaker: Which is... very terrifying.
