long narrow silver rod seen
This was seen just briefly one afternoon while driving home from work. I was driving due south on a local street about 5 pm local time with perfectly clear blue sky. I noticed a little to my right just a few degrees west of due south, just above the horizon, a shiny object. This was no ordinary object. It was long, very narrow, and silver, and standing up-right, and seemed to be somewhat pointed on each end, but it was hard to tell exactly because of the second or two that the sighting lasted. I thought it might have been a reflection, but I could also tell it was far away as I could compare it against other objects such as power lines, and telephone poles, and commercial buildings. This has to be one of the oddest things I’ve seen, I don’t see too many of these reports shown on the web sites.
