Duration: 10 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Kennewick, WA, USA

Shape: Fireball

On the night of August 24th at 3:00 A.M. I observed to huge stationary fireballs in the sky over Kennewick, WA., to the east.

On the night of Aug. 13/14, at about 3:00 AM, from my back porch, I observed two huge brigt yellow fireballs low in the sky to the east. They were silent and holding still. They were placed one directly above the other and very close to each other. They were brighter than anything I have ever seen. I would estimate that they appeared to be some thousand times larger than Venus as she rises.

I glanced away for a mere second to check what my dog was doing. I then looked back to where the fireballs were but they were gone.

I am a retired, educated person, and the author of one of the history books about Kennewick. I also have over 600 historical articles publeshed at various websites on the Internet.
