Personnel contact was made with the witnesses and they said that the object was first thought to be a bright star but the object kept changing colors and the witnesses began to wonder. 3 nights later the witness was asked if he saw similar objects. One of the witnesses said that there was a similar object in the sky and pointed to the star Capella. When asked if that was like the object he had seen he said that it was.
