Flash -Red Beam - Green Beam - Flash

I am guessing on the date since it happened so long ago. It could have been 1978 or 1979 in August sometime.

A friend and I were by the edge of Middle Straits Lake at about 2:00 am when a bright light without any sound lit up the entire lake. It was bright enough that I could see the Golf Course at the other end the mile long lake.

We both instinctively looked up and saw in the high southern sky and saw the following. A red beam shooting from west to east, a green beam shooting from east to west.

Another brilliant flash from where the red bream was shot. The flash again lit up the entire area without a sound.
