Remarks It was the most unusual experience I have ever had. My son and I were traveling in the car heading North on RT 315, when he brought my attention to the lights in the sky. He thought it was beautiful, but did not know what it was. It appeared to be a red stream of star like objects, which remained stationary, but were twinkling. They held their place in the horizon for some time and then began to dissipate. There were many of these objects in a cone like shape. If I were to venture a guess – it was the fire cloud from a metro impact. But I was unable to find any reports of a metro hitting the earth. The sure magnitude of the cloud would imply that this was a large metro, which should have been reported by someone. Respectfully.
