| Remarks | I was driving east on US 40 west of Hagerstown, MD and saw a greenish white light in the ENE sky--light(s) like that of an aircraft, with the expectation that it was going to land at HGR (the local airport). It then exploded mid-air in fragments with the light quickly fading (unlike a firework). Looked like a cheaply done explosion in an old Sci-Fi movie or \"Star Trek\" (original 1960s series). My nephew\'s sister over on Maryland\'s Eastern Shore (Denton) also said she saw it when I posted to my Facebook last night. -- Brian Simmons Greencastle, PA |
