Noon Sighting Reports
as of May 22, 2003
- Two days ago, around 1:00 PM when the sun is at max strength, I looked at it for a second (which should not be done, cause you could
be blind staring at the sun like that), then I closed my eyes because the light was too bright. When I closed my eyes I had the exact image
of the sun (because the light was very bright) but the strange thing was that there was another "red" point in the image, just under the
sun. The image lasted for about 15 long seconds, while my eyes were recovering from the painful light, and for all that time the image
that "shocked" my eyes were two rounds: a large one, the sun, and another smaller one just under it. Maybe it´s only a coincidence, or I
don´t know what it is. Maybe it´s a planet, a comet, or maybe I just imagined that. However, that was strange.

- I´ve had the same result, except I can stare into the sun and right beside it is another easily viewable smaller highly reddish object. It´s
about 1/4 the size of the moon in comparison. I tried to take pictures of it with my crappy digital cam, but it runs on like 3 batteries, and
apparently now can only take pictures when hooked directly to my computer. I snapped like 20 shots of it and then went to plug it into
my computer, which is like 5 feet away and when I went to retreive the photos it reset the count and erased everything I had taken. This
is the only functioning camera I have.

- I don´t think the image was a "ghost" on my retina, cause there would have been only one image then. But there was 2 images, and as
someone said here the second was about 1/4 of the moon (maybe a bit smaller) and it was clearly under the other image, a bit to the
right.

- I was shocked when I got the same "double image" when blinking, an effect called persistance of vision, used to fool the eye in "motion"
pictures. I admit, it scares me.
