SIGHTING: ASTORIA, OREGON (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"In astoria, or; my brother & i were looking at the fading light through the trees. we saw a circular, non deteriorating object, come in from space. the object's apparent size was a penny to a golfball; however, including its surrounding fireball, the apparent size was basketball. it was intensely bright. object seemed to emit an aura intense yellow light and was additionally in a teardrop ball of flame from air friction. it fell in from approx 25 deg going straight down. we saw it fall in about 1 to 1.5 seconds. i did not think it was possible to move so fast; faster than a shooting star. about 45 seconds to a minute later we saw the same yellow light; flash up from where the crash must have been. the thing landed between warrenton & hammond, oregon. this would be the last place to crash on land; before hawaii (thousands of miles away). the nearby coast guard had helicopters in the air, pretty much at all times, for the following 2-3 days. yesterday, at 1:30 pm; a black, stealth helicopter flew over me (pretty much silently) as i drove a scenic route, near the likely crash spot. the stealthy (yet obvious) helicopter, came to a hover, approx 1.5-2 miles off the town's back roads. so, that is where the big wigs came to see the, whatever. just an f.Y.I. :-) i didn't see much. but, the military did just get a prize out here!"
