A friend of mine was at a rocket launch event in Hearne, Texas, where it went nearly dead overhead, South to North. He said it was bright enough that the flash on the ground was detectable even though it was daytime. The object was brightly colored and the colors changed as it went. The object was visible for something like 10 seconds. It left behind a trail which persisted for some minutes, and there was a very loud boom following the event. He said the video taken from Austin (what has been showing on the news) was "pathetic" in comparison to what folks in Hearne saw. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
