We saw a bright oval shaped flash of white light that traveled across the sky near the horizon.
My friend and I are both students at Bowling Green State University. Last night at about 1:30 am, we decided to take a study break and walk around outside. After about 1 minute, we saw an object near the horizon. It was a small circular white light that was traveling at a slow speed. Since there is an airport nearby, we thought we were seeing the landing lights of an airplane. However, the object slowed to a stop and then emitted a white flash and disappeared. The flash was not very bright, but yet it seemed to cover the entire sky. We estimated the object's distance to be about 2 or 3 miles. We heard no sound.
