Green object fell from sky!!!!

Troylee · Sep 15, 2011

Man what a trip haha!!! We were at my sons baseball and this big huge green ball that appeared to be spinning with a orange tail of sparks fell over the Vegas sky about 2 hours ago... Just got online and it was seen from Vegas to San Diego, Idaho, phoenix, havasu etc... Man that was super crazy!!!! I thought it was a firework but way to high and big.... All the news every where looking for a picture or video ATM... Hoping to find out what it was.. I'm thinking maybe that satellite that NASA said was gonna crash by the end of September but no word yet...:(

Are you sure you werent smoking anything Lee?haha,jk

Troylee · Sep 15, 2011

Nah lol... If I was the only one to see it maybe but it was seen by the whole west coast... It was a big green ball with a black center almost like a donut and had a big trail of sparks.. Online research says a green shooting star who knows but it was crazy haha...

No no no no no....Alien. DUH. What else is in the sky in Nevada? Not like it would be an airplane or satellite or anything....lol......just kidding

That is very interesting! I wonder what it really was! Watch out for the men in black in the crash area!(<No joke there)

^^^hahaha^^^ I had a STRONG feeling that you would say alien...

Im honestly not sure, but Im sure that there is a logical explaination to what it was, the best thing I can come up with is it is one of the goverment test gone wrong, for all we know there could have been a monkey flying that green ball and it fell out of orbit and went strait for earth...

Didnt NASA send a squirrle or somthing up in a space ship?

Not trying to derail your thread but,
I was walking with my friends on the beach this past summer and saw this strange orange ball-like thing hovering in circles around the fishing pier for atleast 3 hours straight. Here is a short clip of it. Pardon my friend's noises. We were kinda mocking aliens as we saw it,hahahah. It was shaped more like a pacman though,than a ball. It had 1/4 of it cut off(if it were a circle). It did not make any noise.

Green lantern? Lol jk but cool did it land any where?

Troylee · Sep 15, 2011

There saying Vegas was looking south east, phoenix looking north west and socal looking north east there thinking it landed by lake mead in las Vegas or kingman in Arizona if it did hit earth... News are gonna talk in a few... I'll keep ya posted.. Abc news 15 has a picture but it only shows a orange ball... Not what I saw!!!!

Troylee · Sep 15, 2011

News hasn't said much besides numerous reports of the sighting... There speculating a meteor... Here is a video shot from a phone it doesn't do it justice from what we saw in person but this was it for sure... What a awesome site to see...1smile1

AWESOME! I would say meteorite of some seeing your video. Or like you said earlier a satellite falling back to earth. Either way too cool!

We used to vacation at Cape Hatteras when I was kid and we were all out on the back porch of the beach house one night and saw something similar to this. Come to find out someone had tied a couple of glow sticks to a kite one night. You should have seen the cars lined up going to figure out what it was. LOL

Cool sighting, any one know what materials burn green like that?

I'm pretty sure copper burns green...

Very cool sighting, wish it went over my area too.

Magnesium Burns like that. Old car rims were made from it. When we went to the dunes 4-wheeling someone always had one and would throw on a fire once it got hot would burn for a couple days.
