Does Venus flash different colors ? Or even Jupiter or Mars?
 Quoting: Music muse


Usually no. However in the spring and fall when the seasons are changing and the atmosphere is mixing there can be wild flickering and changing colors. When stars and planets are near the horizon all kinds of crazy things happen, that’s where Jupiter is right now, low in the west following the sun. Cold fronts can cause the planets to flicker too.

Also, using a low resolution phone camera zoomed in causes trouble because the pixels don’t have enough data to display the right colors so they are somewhat exaggerated from what you see. Cameras can do the opposite and not show the flickering. Cameras can be difficult.

For example: This is the spinning cube UFO; it’s zoomed in on a distant orange object which is made up of only four pixels in the camera image. All four pixels are trying to get the color correct for a four pixel box. The rendering says it’s an orange circle, the computer displays that by making one pixel red two yellow and one white or black. The pixels blink at the cycle rate of the camera, frames per second which looks like a blinking or spinning cube as the pixels get interpreted by the camera software. Low resolution photos and videos are useless.

Satellite would be one possibility.

You are looking West, just after sunset. The satellite is still in the Sun, bouncing the bright Sunlight to you. Colors shift due to the changing refraction through the atmosphere at different angles.
 Quoting: JustmeTX


It’s not moving fast enough to be orbiting earth, unless it’s in GEO. If it were that bright in GEO it would have to be huge.

I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to imply you didn’t see what you saw.hf

Planets do flicker and change color when near the horizon. Especially when they are in the sunset or sunrise sky. Add to that your weather changes from clear to cloudy and you get quite a show!

I captured this some years ago while flying home during the holidays. Looks very similar, just from the air. We were in the middle of nowhere in flight, definitely a ufo.

That's those MMR satellites

If your are in the northeast, that’s a star. Capella. I see it every winter, and it flashes colors. I was intrigued by it too when I first saw it.

these things are fake stars and planets. they are actually alien ships. stars don't change colors.
the planet is being moved and the familiar stars and planets are all fakes to keep people from panicking.
this is part of jesus' divine intervention. the planet will benefit from a new position in space with more light.

Sirius rises late in the dark, liquid sky
On summer nights, star of stars,
Orion's Dog they call it, brightest
Of all, but an evil portent, bringing heat
And fevers to suffering humanity.

It is the Dog Star. I’ve seen it countless times in my life. It’s Sirius. Take my word for it. Better yet, spend more time outdoors being curious and find out. It’s a star, people, it’s a star. That’s all we’ve got… stars, the moon and the sun. Sorry to disappoint but that’s what we’ve got. Anything else is man-made technology.

It’s Sirius. Seriously.

Of course it was a star. The fact that it was low in the sky is why it “twinkles”, or “flashes” different colours. Because of the way it’s light has to travel through more of earth’s atmosphere… all very well known and understood by most people with a high school education..
