NUFORC Sighting 96505

Occurred: 2013-03-02 22:00 Local
Reported: 2013-03-03 22:42 Pacific
Duration: 10-15 minutes
No of observers: 5

Location: Cameron Park, CA, USA

Shape: Fireball
Characteristics: Lights on object

We saw 6 firey type objects.

At first it appeared to be a plane on fire but it had an orange fire type mass in the middle with a red light on the top and bottom. It was not real clear but it appeared to have a cigar shape going across the middle. The object appeared in the sky, almost as if it had risen and then they each followed the same path across and upward in the sky until we could no longer see them. They traveled at a speed similar to a plane.

We first saw 4 of them almost together and the last 2 came singularly.

My husband is a retired pilot and has a good background as far as the sky and he did not recognize them as anything he had seen in the last 60 years.

The night was cloudy but while we were watching for another a falling star was seen even though we could see no other stars.
