Full Description of Event/Sighting: Interesting astronomical observation last night (March 23, 2011 in Kaslo B.C. Canada) at 10:30pm pacific daylight time. Consisted of central pulsing, very bright white light with flashing (twinkling) red and blue-green peripheral colours. Located at approximately 230 degrees magnetic compass (SSW) and at elevation of about 12 degrees above horizontal.
At first thought, it was a rescue chopper, but it didn't seem to be moving toward us I had thought, and very hard to judge distance, so in reality it may have been a star?
After 15 minutes or so it dropped out of sight behind mountain, but that could have been Earth's rotation if a star. Used binoculars and the bright white portion was clearly pulsing (but not going out between pulses). Left side seemed to be more red flickering and the blue/green tended to be more right. Posted this b/c similar in appearance to Mr. Vike's description.
