Sighting Details
|
I was walking down Elm Street in El Cerrito, Ca on 1/23/2012. It was clear out, so I was looking up at the stars. When I looked up, for aprox. 45 seconds, there was this amazingly bright light whose flight path streaked across the entire sky. There was no tail, and it was faster than a shooting star. The light was unnatural like a SUPER white LED. It streaked across the sky and disappeared. There was no obstruction of view, it simply vanished. |
