Reports Report 3434aut (Event 3434-2013)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Christopher F |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I never saw the actual object in flight, I observed 3 or 4 rapid bluish green flashes which light up the entire sky, and seemed to originate from behind me and to the right. Since I was traveling west, this would put the objects' likely point of destruction southeast of my location in Rochester, Minnesota. I heard noises quite a bit later that sounded like distant thunder, but those may have been unrelated, so I was driving a semi truck near a truck stop and industrial area at that time. |
