Location of Sighting: Brigantine, New Jersey
Date of Sighting: July, 2006
Time of Sighting: 1 AM EDT
Description: I looked up at the sky for some reason and there was this very large pure bright light right above me. It didn’t look that high up, but it probably was. There was no sound coming from the object. The thing was very large and then it just went straight up and was going up for about 10 seconds and then it was gone. I just stood there watching this thing and I really didn’t know what I was watching. I stayed outside for a while longer and then I saw this other object shoot across the sky, stop, then change directions and fly in a different direction. It was a very strange night and one that I will never forget.

I saw something very similar. Compared to a star it was the size of a pea. It was white and had to be pretty high up. I was looking at it, wondering what the heck it was for 30 to 40 seconds or so when it shot straight up and was gone. I’m a huge meteor shower fan and have spent a lot of time looking up. I have never seen anything like it. I have no idea of what I saw. (This happened May of 2011 in Ohio.)
