Remarks | We saw it flying threw the sky on our way home from Massena, NY. We live in Brasher Falls, NY. It was about 8:00-8:30pm. We first notice a very low flying light going the sky. At first we just stared at it in awe, wondering what it was. It seemed as though it was going right towards the ground. It was a greenish blue color and looked like a very large firework going through the sky right before it explodes. It was amazing and something that we have never seen before! So thankful that we got a chance to see something this amazing! |
