Unidentified Flying Objects
me own eyes | 12-1-1

Posted on 12/01/2001 7:50:13 PM PST by jungleboy

Just witnessed two very fast traveling objects in the sky that had very colorful, streaking objects following them. This WAS NOT meteor activity as the local TV station guessed. These objects came out of the Southwest sky heading Northeast. My wife and I watched them for about one minute as they dissappeared over the horizon. Northeastern Kansas. Anyone else see this?

Im in SE Nebraska, they just mentioned it on our local news, they said they had a lot of calls about seeing something. They guessd it was a meteor or sattalite debris, i didnt see it though.

Ever see some of the videos of meteors caught on camera?

Some of those were pretty unreal looking too ...

I saw a post on an astronomy forum from someone in Colorado who saw something
similar to your described event.
They thought it to be "space junk" re-entering the atmosphere.

No way these were meteors. These unidentified flying objects lasted too long in the sky.

My wife and three kids saw it also, here in the Eastern Texas Panhandle, there were at least ten lights with the brightest a brilliant white (looked like a shuttle launch), and the rest were less bright and changed colors from white, to yellow to orange, and varied in intensity.

They traveled SW to NE, and took about two minutes to cross the entire sky. My wife said it was angles, it was something out of this world.

... and SO DID some of these meteors caught on tape ...

It seems that 'pieces' also break off and trail the main chunk too ...

Clearly a time travel episode. They can be easy to write and quite popular with some of the Trekkies.

"white, to yellow, to orange" -- sounds suspiciously like something going through the black-body spectrum as it cools down, like a hot piece of iron in a blacksmith's fire. That would be consistent with some piece(s) of junk entering the atmosphere. If the words, "to red," were added, that would clinch it in my mind.
