Remarks |
My friends had gone inside of their apartment and I had been looking at the stars while waiting. Lately it seems like the nights haven't been clear enough enjoyably to see everything in the sky. I saw a very distinctive shooting star, above my friends' apartment. When one of them came outside, we were talking and behind her, I saw another one go past, but it wasn't as bright as the first. I told her that I haven't seen one since I was a little girl and now I had seen 2 within 10 minutes. When my friends' boyfriend came back outside, we were all looking up because of the shooting stars. We started showing my friends' boyfriend where the big dipper was. We had noticed that there were quite a few chem trails in the sky, but we hadn't seen a whole lot of airplanes going through, were the chem trails were. We frequently see airplanes that are headed towards Gary, IN and possibly Chicago. But the chem trails we saw, weren't in line with any of the airplane paths. Around the time that we saw the big flame of light come down, we had seen a couple of other light streaks, that looked like shooting stars. They were faint, but clear enough to notice.
I can't think of anything else that would be beneficial. But what we saw, was nothing like I've ever seen before. I stayed up for a couple of hours, researching what it could have been. That is when I came across your article. I had to report this sighting. I am absolutely amazed by this experience. I have always fallen asleep before we've had meteor showers and I've always missed solar eclipses. I know the chances are probably slim, that I would ever get to see something like this again. That 10 seconds just wasn't long enough. |
