This is the 3rd urban legend in 6 months that the "Trail Astronaut" has given us.  It's like listening to Rush Limbaugh.

It is an urban legend, but it was true in 2003. I saw it then at
Horseshoe Meadow and Rock Creek. It was incredibly bright, almost hard
to look at. For some reason this info has been circulating again.
