SIGHTING: COLUMBIA, MISSOURI (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"We were having a bonfire in my yard. it was not real late but probably close to midnight. definitely fully dark out. myself and my cousin were facing east toward another of our cousins, his wife, and my girlfriend who had their backs to the east and were facing my house to the west. out of the black and starless sky a perfectly round and yellowish green shape illuminated. immediately after it illuminated it shot what seemed to us as down but could have been slightly further east. it only moved at that point about twice the distance as its size appeared to be. then in a very quick motion it shot out of sight to the southeast leaving a slight glowing trail behind it. my cousin and i were the only ones to see it. sometime later, probably 30 minutes to an hour i myself saw a yellow bobbing orb directly east of the same spot as before. it was moving slowly in a bobbing motion to the north. this was the second time i've observed a yellow bobbing orb from this location. the one before had been maybe a year before in the eastern sky moving north also. it was light bulbed shaped though while the other was perfectly round from my perspective"
