CONCLUSION Possible Astro (CAPELLA) At 2010L CAPELLA was on an azimuth of 43 deg and at an elevation of 15 degrees.
BRIEF SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS: Observer watched an object that appeared as a light for about 15 minutes in the NE. The object was practically motionless for the duration of the sighting. The object did not disappear while the witness was watching the object. Description is consistent with that of an astronomical observation. Capella being in the NE portion of the sky was at an elevation of approximately 45 deg, which would make it appear most unusual.
