In December 2003, from San Francisco to Eureka California, about 2 AM, highway 101, clear night. Road work was in progress but the workers and many stopped cars were out just starring into the clear night sky...at two apparent stars.
These "stars" were "chasing" one another in a circular pattern, one seemingly catching up and overcoming the other. I watched for an hour as did many others. I never saw or heard any reports of this phenomenon.
If you saw this or something similar, please answer.
