Location: 40 Miles SouthEast of Sonora California <br /> <br />Date of Event: January 18th, 2006 <br /> <br />Time of Event: Noticed first at 5:22pm and lasted till about 5:42pm <br /> <br />Number of Witnesses: 2 (A men and is dog) <br /> <br />Duration of Event: About 20 minutes including being first noticed by the naked eye <br /> <br />Type of Object: Unknown, extremely bright white and luminous <br /> <br />Size of Object: Had to be quite large for the amount of debris and compared to a star 15 times smaller <br /> <br />Shape of Object: Spheroid/Round <br /> <br />Approximately 17 minutes later as I was arriving for a dinner get-together, I observed a glowing luminous spheroid rapidly moving (perhaps three times as fast as a commercial airliner) to the NorthEast and was able capture 'free-hand' with a camcorder about a minute of it which I will send you within the next day. But its rather anti-climatic compared to this event... <br /> <br />Interesting side-note is that in our neck of the woods several researchers and myself were just commenting on how nothing has happen in the hills or the foothills of California for over a month and a half.
