| Name | Rudy V |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I watch the skies above reguarly n the things I see most ppl would doubt me, but this one was cool 2 big bright white ball's w/ the brightest blue tail I have ever seen, clearly 2 next to each other as they made their way towards the Kenai inlet such a beautiful site wish I was better prepared it was so quick didn't have time to get my cell phone out to get pic's. Clear night n both color's (white n blue) were so bright I looked at the time on my cell to know the time I saw these. Coming from the east heading towards the west towards our inlet which I'm sure is where they landed had it hit before I'm sure I would have seen that in our local paper or new's. Can't find any info on any of this. Thank you. |
