National UFO Reporting Center Sighting Report
Occurred : 11/15/2014 17:51 (Entered as : 11/15/14 17:51) Reported: 11/15/2014 5:42:17 PM 17:42 Posted: 11/21/2014 Location: Virginia Beach, VA Shape: Fireball Duration: 5 minutes
Son, wife and I driving down the road shortly after dark. She noticed them first so I pulled over to look too. 3 of what looked to be fireballs traveling directly vertical at a fast pace. The orientation was if they had launched 3 rockets one right after another. At first I just thought maybe it was a launch from nasal at Wallops Island. However, the launch pad at Wallops launch pad was destroyed a few weeks ago when the rocket exploded. We watched and tried to video it but you can't really tell anything on the video. After they reached a very high altitude the "fire" went out but we could still kind of see them. Almost as if they had turned white or traveled through the atmosphere.
