I remember that missile from eight years ago.

The “official” story claimed it was a U.S. Airways airliner on a nonstop flight from Honolulu to Phoenix.

Maybe it was God sending Nancy Pelosi a message!

If it was over San Francisco maybe it was a flaming homosexual.

I would suppose that height, speed, composition, and a number of other things would have a significant effect on what we see.

Late 2001, not sure, might be lying about that, late at night what appeared to be two giant glowing lithium almonds encapsulated in copper green auras flew over the field I was in. If what I had seen was the body in that picture then the green tails would easily still be off the edge of that photo.

I wish I could have gotten footage of it as Ive never seen anything similar. They must have been huge and high because they seemed to be moving slowly, moving from dead south to over the north horizon seemingly moving at about 60mph, yet they also seemed so close that I could have jumped up and grabbed them.

Couldn’t quite remember the details, but this search worked:

This is what I was looking for, but the search results included others I’d not known or perhaps had forgotten:

It’s the Nexus Ribbon from Star Trek.

I think we saw this. It was faint and there were lots of lights and my daughter was asking what this was. I guess I thought it was some small flare or something from a party.

This report video includes a snippet of the trail starting and then growing, looking more like a meteor

[cba123]

I think everything which flames in the atmosphere leaves a trail. The thing is, if this was actually a meteor, it was very, very bright.

(to be seen in the daytime)

Meteors are not usually bright enough to be seen during the day like this one was.

If that is what it was.

So we usually not see meteor tails.

Because usually when it is dark enough to see a meteor, it is too dark to see the tail. So nobody sees meteor tails, usually.

That’s my theory.

Watch out for street meteors in Frisco. The omnipresent bums launch them all over.
(People from Frisco HATE it when people call their $h!t covered city Frisco)

[Hoosier-Daddy]

Leaves a question mark, lol

[Campion]

Meteors and such can often leave “swirly” contrails, after the contrails are blown around by upper-level winds for a few minutes.

The bigg’un is cumin

We’ve seen the omen

[outofsalt]

I think it was a piece of space junk whose orbit decayed and it fell back to earth. Unless the piece was really big it most likely fully burned on reentry.

Indeed, it was a meteor. And a random one, not associated with the shower. See Spaceweather.com
