Alright. I was at rowena boat ramp at 4am this last saturday. In the southeast sky looking in the general direction of Beaver Creek there was this really bright star or planet no where near the horizon. Real bright like you say to yourself "that is a really really bright something". The moon was only a sliver but not visible to me at that time. Perfectly clear night and tons of stars visible as can be the case down there. I decided it must be a rare occurrence of some planet. It did not move or change color, just real bright and stationary. Different looking though. I looked at it several times and while I was staring at it dimmed to nothing over about a three second time frame as if somebody turned a light out. It did not instantly shut off it dimmed like the lights in my car when I get out and lock it. From quick googling it seems a planet would not be there plus I have never seen a planet just go dark in the middle of the sky for no apparent reason with zero clouds in the sky.

Has any body seen something like this?

I probably would not have taken more than a passing note of this but the thing went dark while I was looking at it.

I didn't see any aliens although I did feel a bit like the Green Hornet when I put my green bait light out which lit up the water in the cove.
