An object of light in the shape of a ball lit up the sky over my car as I drove to work, it flashed and disappeared.
The following event happened last evening as I was driving alone.
It occurred while I was approaching a stop sign on my way to work, a bright ball of light went over my vehicle in the sky. The ball of light illuminated the entire night sky, it appeared to descend into the wooded area across the street from the stop sign. As the ball of light went over the tree line it appeared to flash without making a sound. It then dissipated and transitioned back to natural darkness. I proceeded to work and returned home and informed my husband. He was intrigued and I thought it was a weird occurrence. I thought I would report it.
My daughter joked it was the end of the world and my son was sure it was an alien with a wink and a nod. Like I said before, I thought it was weird. My husband was curious but not all that moved by the event. He joked that we should get the flashlights and go investigate the crash site. Needless to say, we were fast asleep shortly thereafter.
Hopefully this sighting was a mere meteorite and not the beginning of the return of the ancient aliens.
Thanks.
