John Tosti and I were driving back from Spencer on
State Road 46, this
evening. When we were about a half
mile outside of Ellettsville,
John spotted an object in the sky. After
drawing my attention to the object, I saw a white,
opaque, and square-looking
light with a red-orange tinge.
It appeared to be larger and brighter
than a star, but not too bright;
a sort of medium brightness. The light
was about the size of a piece of gravel held at arm’s length.
John observed the object as it remained
stationary for about three seconds,
approximately thirty degrees above the horizon. About a half
second after I focused on the object,
it began to fall straight downward at a
constant speed. It fell for the next two seconds,
turning and twisting like a very large satellite
might rotate and tumble. Then
suddenly and immediately, it disappeared
from view while it was still well above
the horizon. The light/object did not pass
behind any tree or building, it just
suddenly disappeared in mid-air.
The closest description I could give of the
object would be that it looked like an illuminated airplane
without wings, however, it did appear somewhat
square in shape as it came crashing straight toward the
ground, vanishing before it could impact the
Earth.
Additional Notes:
The object appeared to have been stationary when John
first saw it, and
when I spotted it
about 3 seconds later.
There was no trail of fire or light or anything visible behind the
object as it fell, as would be characteristic of
a meteor. ♦
