Reported: 2000-01-20 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 10 sec
No of observers: 1

Location: Houston (NW ), TX, USA

Shape: Sphere
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

Bright green sphere hovering then accellerating exponentially.

A very bright green light seemed to be hovering south of my location. It it appeared as an aircraft light, but 3 to 5 times larger, if the craft was about 700-100ft in altitude and approximately 1 mile south. The light did not flash, flicker, or streak. After 3-5 seconds of what seemed to be a hover to a slight North to South movement, it then seemed to either move drastically from North To South, or fall in an arc to the Earth. In less than five seconds it had faded to nothing, over the tree line. At first I thought a shooting star. I have seen 20+ shooting stars. Again, I emphasize, this thing did not flicker at all, nor did it streak.
