I was being driven to work by my girlfriend, it was about 2130, about a week and a half ago. For some reason, I don't know why there appeared to be a commotion in the sky and my eyes just naturally focused in on the area.

All of a sudden, out of nowhere I was looking at an object that I have never seen before. It appeared to be a miniture moon with a collar around it. It was pink and red in color and it was low, probably less than 8,000 feet. The body of the craft appeared to be irregular as far as the texture. It appeared to be pink and some parts red like what the moon would look like if it was going the speed of light. The collar around it looked like it was manufactured and almost appeared to be opaque with a red outline. This thing was there for only a split second and was gone. The craft moved so fast that it appeared to dissapear. However there was a very short, bright trail of sparks in the sky when it left.

Okay, now for the real kick, did you ever recall looking skyward and seeing these short burst of sparks and saying, "wow, I just saw a shooting star". You know what, its not a star its them. Nowdays if you look skyward at night for any length of time you'll see these trails of sparks often enough. Never use to but now we do. I had made an attempt to bring this to someones attention but instead I spoke to what can only be called the smartest person in the world because this individual didn't want to hear anyone but himself talk.
