Traveling southeast on Bardstown road, light appeared to the Northeast, the light had an absolute vertical shape with a glow in the upper mid-center. My husband and I traveled East of Louisville, out in to the country, because we were so fascinated. It stayed stationary for about an hour and gradually faded away leaving a residual glow. It had almost a biblical parting of the heavens look. We were sure there would be some other people that saw this because it was much larger than even the moon when it first appeared.
