After speaking with Peter Davenport, I looked at a map of Oahu and located the UFO as being on the south of the island. I will follow through tonight an observe it again as well as notify the local astronomy group to observe it as well if I do see it. Thank you.

Kaneohe, HI

Observed a very bright and sparkley lit object above the mountain ridge. Thought it was a plane, but it never moved for 20 minutes. Last 10 minutes, it slowly dropped below the mountain ridge. It was an array of colored lights... and I compared it to the other stars in the sky. This was not a star. It would have been more visible in Honolulu since I live on the other side of the mountain. My neighbor said she saw it zigzag before we lost it.
