SIGHTING: WARNER SPRINGS, CA

Witness Testimony

" Very large, bright meteor with short, red tail descending very slowly near harvest moon.I am responding to a witness’s previous report of the same object seen in southern California.I was attempting to view the “remnants” of a lunar eclipse from the previous weekend, but missed the event, as I am in the mountains, and had to climb upon a high ridge to see the rising moon.This was the largest, brightest, meteor I’ve ever seen, and it appeared to travel in slow-motion compared to other meteors I’ve witnessed in the past.I counted the duration of the event as 10 seconds.For me, the meteor traveled from south to north, almost “into the harvest moon,” before disintegrating.It had a short, bright red tail and very large, brilliant white, spherical head.When I tried to find info on this meteor using the internet today, the previous account was the only record available. I wish to substantiate it with my report.((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)) "
