I can see something in the sky
34 Answers
I live on the south coast of the uk around south east cornwall, The object is located south west in direction, with the naked eye it flashes red, blue, white in colouration. Binoculars don't help as hand shake creates a spirograph effect lol, but it still confirms colour change. It is fixed and not moving so I don't think its a plane or helicoptor?
Any ideas, I don't know much about constellations.
Thanks in advance

It's quite normal for stars to rapidly change colour as you watch them, especially when they are lower in the sky. As to size - on the clearest nights, a star will appear brighter, and thus it will seem to be bigger, than when the atmosphere is less clear.
