Occurred : 8/14/2014 21:25 (Entered as : 08/14/14 21:25) Reported: 8/14/2014 7:58:31 PM 19:58 Posted: 8/15/2014 Location: Sarcoxie, MO Shape: Light Duration: 1 minute Characteristics: There were lights on the object, There were aircraft in the vicinity or aircraft chasing the object
Light came from sky becoming Huge with no sound then leaving sight very fadt I live in Southwest Missouri. At approx. 9:25pm, I took my dog on leash to go to the bathroom. We live in the country and there was only a one bulb porch light on approx 50 yards away, so it was very dark around me. Something caught my eye to the ESE that I first thought was a planet. A bright white light, not flashing and no other lights near, that moved closer. It continued to get bigger until it was approx. 1/4 of the size a full moon appears to be. Then it turned south slowly went a little further (still very bright), then seemed to leave the atmosphere, reducing in size until I could no longer see it. It seemed to fade very fast, roughly 7 seconds. There are no clouds out tonight. I heard no sounds. We are on a medical helicopter path and that is NOT what I saw!! I looked around immediately and did see a plane to the East, very high with flashing lights. I then came back in the house.

I live in Southwest Missouri. At approx. 9:25pm, I took my dog on leash to go to the bathroom. We live in the country and there was only a one bulb porch light on approx 50 yards away, so it was very dark around me.

It continued to get bigger until it was approx. 1/4 of the size a full moon appears to be. Then it turned south slowly went a little further (still very bright), then seemed to leave the atmosphere, reducing in size until I could no longer see it. It seemed to fade very fast, roughly 7 seconds.
