Appearance / Description of Object(s)

The object was teardrop or tadpole shaped with the color of a watery reflective metallic silver blue. The large end was leading and no frontal resistance or tail was observed as the object descended as if approaching a landing, at an extremely rapid pace. No sound was heard from my vantage point.

Size of Object(s)

The relative size would be about 1 1/2 inches between my fingertips at arms length. I would approximate the actual size to be about 35 feet long and 15 feet tall.

Description of Area / Surroundings

I was standing in front of an elementary school at release in a medium-dense middle class suburb. No noted features of the area stand out.

Full Description & Details

Standing with my mother outside an elementary school to meet my sister at the end of the day, I glanced up and briefly saw a rapidly moving and descending teardrop shaped liquid silver and blue object dart from right to left through a large visible patch of blue sky I could see through the treetops. The object was descending at a pitch of approximately 125 degrees, appeared to be heading for earth's surface, well within the atmosphere and was very comet-like in motion although no heat activity due to resistance or trail was observed. Upon returning home, a local radio station was reporting the phenomenon as several area residents had seen the object. My mother called in and I was interiewed on air about my experience. I was approximately 11 years old at the time. A newspaper article the next day attributed the object to an unusual daytime meteor sighting.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

At the time I subcribed to the meteor explination by the media, though many years later (and after several other sightings) at 27 years old, I don't believe that was the case.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I had only a passing interest in UFO's at the time and did not believe in them. This individual experience didn't change my views then.

Other Comments

7 or 8 years later I observed a large hovering black triangle with lighted corners while riding the chairlift alone, snowboarding at night at the local hill. The distant visibility of the clear nightime sky was vast in all directions and after taking one short run, riding up again, the object was completely vanished from sight whereas any aircraft would still be entirely visible.

A couple years after that, while hanging out with several friends on a rocky hilltop clearing in a nearby suburb we observed a brief phenomenally colored blue white light flash from a rapidly moving metallic teardrop shaped object that darted through the night sky.
