| Remarks | We were near the Hartsfield Airport at sunset, and at first thought the object was an airplane landing light. My wife and son actually saw the object; I did not. My wife stated that it appeared to coming at an angle right toward us, and then broke up into pieces and disappeared. We were in our van and could not hear any sounds, if there there were any. |
