This was the most spectacular heavenly sighting I have ever experienced, and I have seen some amazing meteor showers in the past. This eclipsed them all! On my way to school (I'm a teacher) I saw this object streaking across the morning sky. I first thought, "Wow! What a treat, a random shooting star bright enough for me to see at early dawn. However, this was quickly looking a lot different! The head of the streaking object increased in its glowing brilliance!! It was so different from anything I had ever seen, so I kind of dismissed it as maybe a fast flying jet whose wing was catching the early sun at just the right angle to make this spectacular display. After it vanished near the horizon, I looked around and didn't see the sun, so I thought it must be just below the horizon but at an angle to catch the supposed plane's wing, and I thought the trailing streak was contrail. I am so thrilled to know it was not just a plane but an astronomical event!! Thank You, Lord!! What an unexpected treat!! |
