Hi everyone,
I’m hoping someone here can help me figure out what I captured in the night sky. I’ve been trying to find a logical explanation, but so far I haven’t been able to.

The video was recorded on December 23rd, 2025 at around 12:45 AM, from Santa Ana, El Salvador.

In the video, you can clearly see the stars, but what caught my attention was a single point of light that behaves very differently from a star. It appears as a blinking or pulsing light, turning on briefly and then off again approximately every 10 seconds.

Here are some important details:

• The light was very high in the sky, at a similar altitude to the stars, and could easily be mistaken for one at first glance.
• However, its blinking behavior made it clear that it wasn’t a normal star.
• The light did not move at all. It stayed fixed in the same position the entire time I observed it.
• Because of that, I’ve ruled out satellites, since those usually move steadily across the sky.
• The sky was completely clear, no clouds, haze, or anything that could obstruct or reflect light.
• In the video, I try to zoom in on the blinking point to make it more visible.
• The video was recorded using a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, no special filters or edits.

I first noticed it when I stepped into the inner patio of my house. I saw a bright light appear and then disappear, which made me stop and look at the sky more carefully. After watching for a bit, I noticed this blinking point and decided to record it.

I’m not jumping to any conclusions, but I honestly can’t find a logical explanation so far. If anyone here has experience with astronomy, aircraft, drones, atmospheric phenomena, or anything similar, I’d really appreciate your input.

Thanks in advance, and I’m happy to answer any questions or provide more details if needed.
