- Brian: I think you are my best bet, though I am not
sure what we saw was "Alien". Observation Position: 45d N lat;
93d W long.
-
- My mate and I spotted a bright tiny orb almost directly
overhead.
- As it grew brighter it appeared to be spinning so we
got the binoculars; with them, we saw a number (3 -5) of smaller,
variably bright spots seem to break away from the large one. These headed
north about a degree, separating to about 15sec apart; one wandered
back towards the original spot then reversed its course and headed toward
the farthest one to the north. As they merged, this spot appeared to
explode into a bowtie shape made up of many tiny sparkling spots spreading
out about 30sec east to west. The smaller spots faded; the "explosion"
faded; and the largest, stationary spot appeared to move away; that is,
it faded to pink and finally disappeared without appearing to move much.
Using the assumption that these objects were reflecting the setting
sun, we figured the altitude of this event was about 20 -30 miles above
the earth. As the sky grew dark, the star Vega appears almost exactly
where the event occurred.
-
- It was certainly an unidentified object to us, though
it seemed more "star wars" like than extraterrestrial. (The
US admitted conducting a "Star Wars" type test the following
day.) All I want to know is: did anyone else see it? This was whole
little drama in the sky that must have been meant for someone to see.
-
- Thanks for the forum.

- Hello Brian, I live in Hennepin County, in a little town
called Wayzata (pronounced wye - ZET- tah). I notice I forgot to specify
the times as PM. I can't think of much else. I can tell you it spooked
me for a moment as it was so directly overhead and there was so much apparent
debris I thought it was conceivable some of it might come down on us.
And of course, the thought of purposeful explosions of any sort going
on overhead was disconcerting. Let's see, there was no fire or smoke connected
to the explosion, but then I wasn't glued to the binoculars as we were
passing them back and forth at first, so we may not have seen it. The
primary object was visible to the naked eye, but the little moving objects
and the bowtie debris field were only visible through the lenses.
-
- I can add that when I tell others about it, their first
reaction is always, "You've seen a star wars test." No disbelief,
no real surprise- just a bland response. My husband took pictures,
- which of course produced nothing more than a bright white
dot in a sky-blue field. I've attached these, and you may use them, as
well as my report.
