Initial data
6: 55 a.m. local time yesterday in the East-Southeast at an altitude of 20 degrees from the horizon appeared a glowing ball the size the apparent diameter of the moon. The ball was moving in the direction of the North-East.
About seven hours inside it there was a flash and was visible to a very bright core of the ball. He became more intense glow around him appeared a luminous cloud, deflected towards the South. The cloud spread through the Eastern part of the sky. Shortly thereafter there was a second flash, she had the appearance of a Crescent moon.
Gradually the cloud grew, the center remained illuminated dot (luminosity was variable in magnitude). The ball moved towards the East-North-East. The greatest height above the horizon - 30 degrees - was reached in about 7 hours 05 minutes. Continuing the movement, this unusual phenomenon weakened and eroded.
Thinking that it somehow is connected with the satellite, I turned on the receiver, however, receptions of the signal was not.
