You live in Nevada. I'd say it was a UFO...

Rapture???


It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so...

Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe.

I used to see flares and all sorts of odd nighttime exercises west of Area 51 while working at NTS back around 1985-1992 before we deserted NTS.

They still use the Tonopah test range?

Back when I was about 10 years old me and another kid were running around in the church parking lot one night after evening service while the adults had a meeting inside.

A meteor came sailing across the horizon over us at phenomenal speed. It occupied a spot in the sky larger than that of a full moon. I don't mean to say that it was as large as the moon, but that's about the same size that it appeared as it moved across the sky

It was glowing bright orange and you could see it twisting and turning in the sky.

It went from horizon to horizon in an instant. The last we saw of it, it broke up and burned out.

The word "awesome" is over-used these days, but it truly was an awesome sight.

I'd like to see another one like that.
