Set 7/3/65

about 20 minutes of 10 pm tonite looking toward the North a small red light moned very fast toward the south west. There was no noise and in about 3 minutes I lost track of it.

Much too high & no noise and wonder if it might have been a satellite of some sort?

Shortly after this a light fast morning cloud seemed too more across the sky, and light from the moon made it seem like an effusion of lit. Would any satellite of ours crossed our skies about this time. Was a long way off.
