Green object in San Jose, CA
Sitting on the PC at 1am. Lights on in the room....next to a window. No visible stars could be seen due to the light on in the room. Look out the window as something caught my eye....
At that point I watched a green light float down to the ground apparently....my first reaction was that it was a flare....but the light was consistent and color did not fade or vary at any point. Speed was slower than a typical shooting star by a wide margin. I have seen comets....but there was no typical tail to this object. just a floating circle....in a straight line to the ground. Then no more sightings.
Before this happened...I was intrigued by the sound of a helicopter, which at this time in the night is rare unless it is a police copter....I know the San Jose copter is very quiet due to high tech blades it has for low level flying and stealth. The copter I heard was flying just before the incedent for about 15 minutes before it went out of range....but though I searched for the copter with lights off for 5 minutes....no lights were seen. Then 5-10 minutes later ...I saw the light.
