11, COMMENTS
Due to the fact that the sky was
clear w/visibility unlimited
except by darkness, & the fact
that the object was observed
thru an automobile windowshield,
it is the opinion of this hq
that the observer(s) possibly
saw the planet Jupiter and/or
the star Sirius which were both
bright and in the SW at the time
of the sighting.
