Am I the only one who gets angry again when I see a picture of the New York skyline with the WTC towers still standing?

It was located about 30 degrees southeast of Orion almost aligned with the belt."And don't forget my dog, fixed and consequent" ping.

It was a giant spaghetti monster.
I heard the spaghetti monster was on the prowl in your area.

According to Heavens Above Satellite Tracker you had this going over about 7:00 pm.
TITAN 4B R/B 1.5 19:04:53 10° SSW 19:09:14 55° SE 19:09:14 55° SE
It would have lined up with Orion very nicely.
This was a rocket booster, so, it would have been tumbling and looking like it was moving in a odd motion. If you look, you can see these kind of things all the time right after sunset or just before sunrise.

ACK! Scrubb that, that was for Tonight! not last night.
Then again, if you go out at 7:00, you would see this.
The magnitude is showing 1.5. That’s pretty bright.

One day, we saw something really weird in the western skies. We grabbed our AR’s and headed towards it. Finally realized it was a missile launched from Vanden Burg Air Force Base that went off course so they blew it up. It makes a HUGE impact on the sky. We felt a bit like country hicks thinking we might have to shoot us some aliens.

You really do need to filter whatever it is you are making through some activated charcoal before you drink any more of it; whatever it is seems to have badly stuned your beeber...

Was the object near the horizon? It sounds like Sirius, the Dog Star as it is known, in Canis Major. When stars are near the horizon and very bright like Sirius our turbulent atmosphere causes them to “jump” around. This does not always happen because the atmosphere is not always that turbulent.
