Location of Sighting: Yakima, Washington
Date of Sighting: August 21, 2019
Time of Sighting: 8:30 PM PDT
Description: I watch planes going into Seattle most every night. Tonight is August 21, 2019. At 8:30 PM PDT in Yakima, Washington. I saw a bright flash at high altitude which repeated as the object moved eastward. Then I saw another bright flash near the first one moving in the same direction. These flashes did not have a set repeat pattern. I have seen single bright lights with no repeats West of here as well. There is a training center near here and we are also on the flight path to Moses Lake also.
Note: The witness description sounds like that he could have seen an iridium flare satellite. However, the satellite tracking site (www.heavens-above.com) showed no iridium flares or other bright satellites in the area at the time of the sighting.
