Huge Florescent Blue Orb Much Larger Than The Moon. At approximately 11:00 p.m 5 Correction's Officers working B-Side Yard at Farmington Correctional Center witnessed a brilliant occurrence in the southern sky which they determined may have been Saint Elmo's Fire. Storms were present earlier in the evening, but the sky was clear & stars were shining at the time of the sighting. It began as a splendid florescent blue streak in a zig zag motion. Resembling a line like on a chart. Then it produced a very huge (much larger than a full moon) florescent blue floating orb. None of the 5 had ever seen anything like it. After much discussion on the topic that it may have been an ufo, one of the officers (a sailor) determined that it may have been St. Elmo's Fire. All agreed that it should be reported to NUFORC anyway. As the wife of the Yard Sgt. I was elected to make this report. Even though I did not see it. The 5 were to tired at the end of shift to report it themselves.

Huge Florescent Blue Orb Much Larger Than The Moon.

At approximately 11:00 p.m 5 Correction's Officers working B-Side Yard at Farmington Correctional Center witnessed a brilliant occurrence in the southern sky which they determined may have been Saint Elmo's Fire.

Storms were present earlier in the evening, but the sky was clear & stars were shining at the time of the sighting.

It began as a splendid florescent blue streak in a zig zag motion. Resembling a line like on a chart.

Then it produced a very huge (much larger than a full moon) florescent blue floating orb.

None of the 5 had ever seen anything like it. After much discussion on the topic that it may have been an ufo, one of the officers (a sailor) determined that it may have been St. Elmo's Fire. All agreed that it should be reported to NUFORC anyway.

As the wife of the Yard Sgt. I was elected to make this report.

Even though I did not see it. The 5 were to tired at the end of shift to report it themselves.
