Remarks |
I could see the rock, see a nucleus of green fire, huge green streak and then a long smoke trail close to an arm length, watched it for 7-8 seconds, never left horizon line, went behind huge cloud bank 75 miles ahead of me. I was traveling north bound on I-15 north of Cedar City, just before interstate jogs to a NE position, I saw what I thought to be green lightnening in front of me in the sky, this went on for almost a minute, I look directly West out of my driver side window and the green fireball passes me, I could see a rock surrounded by a nucleus shaped fire and huge stream of fire behind it, it passed in front of us where I woke my girlfriend who watched the last 3 seconds, when it went behind the cloud bank it was almost in the middle of the windshield but still within horizon. I have seen the Northern Lights once in the early 70s as a kid in Idaho, this was 1000 times more impressive, I am still a bit shaken the experience, and super super stoked, 1 in a trillion sighting, to see the Nucleus moving around the rock was somehting I will never forget!!! |
