Greenish light with a dark middle and long tail over southern sky in Wisconsin.
Date April 14, 2010
Location Ogdensburg, Wisconsin, United States
Summary: April 14, 2010 at approximately 22:10, I witnessed a greenish light with a black or dark middle area in Ogdensburg, WI. Was falling to the earth, like a shooting star.
Sighting Time: 22:10
Day/Night: Night
No. of Witnesses: 2
Duration: 10 seconds
Appearance/Description of Object(s): Large, circular, very bright, greenish light with a dark middle, long red tail
Size of Object(s) 100x as big as any bright star I have ever seen also mush larger than any planets seen with the naked eye
Distance to Object(s) & Altitude Appeared to be within the Earth's atmosphere
Description of Area/Surroundings Rural. Approximately 15 miles from closest town. Excellent view of the sky. No cloud cover.
Full Description & Details: On April 14, 2010 at approximately 22:10, I was standing on the North end of our house facing south when we witnessed what appeared to be at first to be a shooting star. My second thought was an aircraft coming down on fire, but the speed was too fast for an aircraft.
Then I noticed that it was quite large. Much larger than any star I had ever seen. Not as large as the moon, but absolutely not a plane or helicopter. It had a greenish color to it with a dark area in the middle. It arced in the sky heading to the south east, and then appeared to be falling to the earth when it suddenly disappeared.
The entire encounter only lasted approximately 10-15 seconds.
Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object? Possibly either
Witness Background: One witness works in the healthcare field, the other in the IT field.
Views on UFOs, before and after sighting Always skeptical about UFO's, but cannot rule out the possibility that they exist.
