SIGHTING: TELLURIDE, CO

Witness Testimony

"Similar to report from Longmont CO on 9/7/98.Very fast moving lightWhile camping in the Lizard Head Wilderness Area near Telluride CO I saw a light move across 2/3 of the sky in approx. 2 seconds. I've watched satellites and meteor showers. This moved MUCH faster. It was a constant white light with a brightness greater than any star or planet. It moved from the WSW horizon to the NE horizon in a straight line(arc). Like the gentleman in Longmont, I thought I was imagining it. I couldn't believe its speed, and replayed it in my mind several times to get a grasp on the speed at which it must have moved.I still think it's possible it might have been a low orit satellite since sunset was only a couple of hours before the event. I took a photograph of star trails that night in a 2 hour exposure. Unfortunately the shutter was not open during this event."
