I have examined the re-entry circumstances of all six objects mentioned
by Ed Cannon as candidates for the "Lights in the Sky" (over the
Bahamas) account at
             http://www.attrill.freeserve.co.uk/lights.htm

Unfortunately, none of the six could have caused the observed phenomena.
Most of them probably decayed later in the day than the reported time
(1985 Jan 11 02:48 UTC) and none had orbital planes that allowed them to
be observable from the Bahamas at this time.
