Occurred : 10/20/2002 (Entered as : 23oct2002 daytime) Reported: 10/26/2002 11:09:55 PM 23:09 Posted: 10/28/2002 Location: Albany (maybe New York), NY Shape: Cigar Duration: seconds
I am passing this on from my friend, as I did not see the news report. He said that on the local news, a CBS station here in Jacksonville Fla, that he saw a news report about an unidentified object captured on film, video, by a news camera. I have been looking to see if anyone else had any info on this sighting. He said the news reporter said the object may have been an optical illusion, but when still frame was looked at, it was seen to be a cigar shaped object with possibly fins or stabilizers on it. The amazing thing was that it crossed the entire horizon in such an instant, no one was sure what they had seen! Has anyone else heard this news report?
