Full Description of Event/Sighting: I saw exactly the same phenomenon
like a couple of husband and wife witnessed on May 23rd of 2009. (Link)
On July 18th 2010, I was walking along Victoria Park and suddenly
noticed a large bright star in the sky. It was shining like a fire
ball unlike any other stars at a low altitude. I told my sister and
we both stared at it along the way to our home. When we almost reached
home (note that the object doesn’t move yet its light changed
intermittently), we both saw the object faded and shined again and
it faded until we couldn't see it anymore.
At that moment my sister turned around I saw a meteor, I don’t
know how to describe it, it only lasted for less than 1 second right
after the object disappeared. And it was a fireball tail like what
the witness described on May 23rd 2009. The weird thing is, the meteor
flashed at a very far point from where the object faded. I also saw
the fireball tail phenomenon in a night of February 2010 (around 10:00
PM) which also lasted less than a second. (Time: approx 7:00 –
8: 00 PM)
The following day, July 19th 2010, I got home around 7:00 PM and surprised
that the object appeared precisely at the same point in the sky like
the day before that yet this time I stared at it for one hour and
it wouldn’t fade away until all the cloud covered my sight.
I also asked my house mates to look at it, but they wouldn’t
believe it a UFO, they just assumed it was kind of orbit, balloon
air with light, forecast ball or lantern, Venus but it doesn’t
seem like that to me. My house mate said that if it was an UFO, the
government would have canceled the flights like China's event or it
would have been on the cover page of the newspaper, but yes he believed
that it couldn't be a star.
Thanks for looking at my report, every word in this letter is true.
Regards.
