appeared too be a very large gigantic bright shooting like star which was fluorescent-white in color with a reddish-orange aura around

On June 2009 approx 12am, clear skies, twinkling stars trillions a miles away, nothing but quietness and peace, in Antioch, CA: I saw what appeared too be a very large, gigantic bright shooting like star which was fluorescent-white in color with a reddish-orange aura around it like a fireball, but it was not that at all.

I have never seen anything like it, before. I meant it was such the amazingly beautiful sight I have witnessed looking at such the distance that it was at. It looked as if I could reach out and touch the sucker, where I was on the lanai smoking a cigarette when it shot right by me! Yes! Nearly right pass my eyes, a block away from me! It was so close to me for 10 seconds and vanished into where???? I wanted to see it again! This is not a hoax! What was it???? How can this thing have made it to earth??? It looked like a shooting star, really up close and personal. And if it was a star, again I ask, how did it make it to earth??? I thought earth was too far away for a star-like object to travel to.

I do know it was not a UFO. I never told anyone but one person and we were on the subject on UFO sightings, a month later. I had to tell him. Frankly I absolutely DO NOT believe in any UFO’s at all nor do I believe in Alien like creatures. I only believe in what I see. And what I saw that night was of something not from earth.

This is a night I will always cherish and remember for the rest of my life.
