Default UFO last night... (sept 14th)

Anyone else see this? My buddy and I were driving home from picking up some GSR seats around 7:50pm (MST) and we saw a bright green object shooting across the sky from North to South almost directly above us.

It was moving a lot slower than any meteor or shooting star I've ever seen, but way faster than anything man-made.

It seems to be breaking up and flashing very brightly, and then seemed to explode after it got so low.

Found these videos this morning on it.






When we got home, my wife said she was outside smoking and saw the same thing.


:noes:

It was a very bright green, and it seemed to go vertical across the sky. I've seen plenty of asteroids and I've never seen anything like it.
It looked like someone was shooting fireworks across the sky.

This is gonna happen more and more until Dec. 21st 2012. The Sun of God is returning to earth, steadily.

But on the real, we have to remember that UFO stands for "Unidentified Flying Object." That fucking this does look like a meteor, but it still hung out for a while before streaking.

I actually saw a UFO on the 4th of july this summer. It was a bright light hovering in the sky that slowly split into 4 or 5 lights, each independently moved around for a while (slowly, so slow you could barely see them moving at a glance), then they merged into 2, then back into 1. Watched for probably 5 minutes as it happened. Creepy but

I'm not saying your opinion of what you saw was wrong. My opinion might have been different if I was there.

I have seen asteroids move vertically, though. I think they're not all that uncommon.
