Weather: Skies Were Clear. Visibility Was 10 Miles. Winds Were From the WNW at 4 MPH.
Description (In Witness's Own Words): At arm's length the object could be covered with a golfball. It was a very light green bright glowing orb like ball, very fast. I saw it for maybe about 3-4 seconds and then it quickly went down behind the tree tops. My boyfriend and I were driving home and we both saw it. It was not a plane, meteor or shooting star. It was something that we could definitely not explain.
Investigator's Notes: The quick motion and apparent descent suggest that the object was a meteor. The green color could mean that the meteor contained copper. |
