Details of Incident:

 

Three of us, Tim H., Heidi H. and myself were skywatching on Dundee Mountain. Suddenly at 8:55 pm, Heidi spotted a very bright object due east. It was a bright white ball with an orange tail that tapered to a point. The tail didn't change shape or length, but stayed completely still behind the object, almost as if it were part of the object. The object appeared to be very close, and the white ball that formed the head of the object was about the size of a dime held at arm's length. It appeared to be only about 50 to 100 yards above the treetops. It moved very quickly from due east moving from our right to our left, and disappeared when it was north-northeast from us. The entire sighting lasted only about 5 seconds. It did not change course, velocity or altitude during this time.

Tim had two cameras and one video camera on tripods at the time, but they were all pointed to the southern sky. During the event, Heidi attempted to swing the video camera around to face the object, but I haven't seen the video so I'm not sure if she was successful. It would have been very difficult given the speed of the object. I've been trying to find out if this could match the appearance of a natural celestial event. I know the Perseid Meteor Shower was happening from August 13-22, but the meteors I've seen have looked more like shooting stars. This object was much closer and much bigger. The comets I've seen have had tails that flow outward, not that taper to a neat point. The other explanation I've been presented with was that it was "space junk" re-entering the atmosphere. I'm wondering if anyone else has other explanations. If you do, please let UFO Wisconsinknow.

Thanks,
Jim
