National UFO Reporting Center Sighting Report
Occurred : 10/9/2014 23:12 (Entered as : 10/9/2014 23:12) Reported: 10/9/2014 9:43:36 PM 21:43 Posted: 10/10/2014 Location: Chicago, IL Shape: Fireball Duration: 3.5 seconds Characteristics: There were lights on the object, The object left a trail, There was an aura or haze around the object
Not really a believer in UFOs but here's what happened: I'm in river north (Chicago) watching TV in my apartment. I see a bright green ball of light through the window facing North. It was moving similar to how I would describe a falling star, almost a perfect 45 degree angle - downward. I saw it for about 3-4 seconds and then it disappeared in the on the horizon (buildings/Lake Michigan, depending on the depth). I've subsequently watched scores of airplains fly by and none are anything like the green ball I saw. Did anyone else see this?
