Bright White Light Over Pine Bluff, Arkansas

Date: September 2, 2010
Time: Approx: 8:25 p.m.

I saw a bright white light tonight around 8:25pm to the south-southwest. Ran in to get the camera phone with the starwalker app to see if it were a planet, and it was gone when I came back out. There was another one about 15 minutes later, but farther away. I watched it get smaller and smaller and it turned orange, then left a faint tail until it vanished. It blew my mind. I Googled it and people all over the world saw this as well tonight.

Additional Information:

Hey Brian, I live in the town of Pine Bluff, state of Arkansas in the US. It was last night, Thursday September 2, 2010. The star walk app is for an iPhone, you can view constellations and planets, and it uses the gyro inside the phone so when you move, the stars will move depending on where you point it. It's really quite amazing. Its my favorite app on my phone.

Here are some links and a video that explains it better than I can.
