Full Description of Event/Sighting: Weird falling object over Cranbrook BC, East Kootenays area.
Hi there, I was trying to Google to see if there was any news on what I saw fall out of the sky.
A friend and myself were standing outside in Cranbrook, B.C. facing north toward Kimberly B.C. We observed a large object and very bright blue in color, seeming to be glowing on the outer edge between green and blue.
The object seemed to be going straight down towards the ground .
It seemed to be sort of florescent, it also was moving very fast, it was not like any shooting star I had ever seen before as it seemed to have no fiery tail behind it.
It was round in shape and very bright blue color in the center, but seemed to be glowing on the outer edge between blue and green.
The object was very large in size. Distance seemed to be 20 miles away but hard to tell as it was moving very fast and straight down on a slight angle to the left (west) and we observed it from Cranbrook so it was north of us towards Kimberley, B.C.
It was not going across the sky like other meteors I have seen before with a tail behind it.
It was bright looking with bluish/green color on outer edge and bright blue through the rest. As I explained and it was going pretty fast. We observed it for about 3 to 4 seconds.
We were expecting to hear a big bang or something. As it seemed to heading towards land, but we lost sight of it as it got closer to the ground we lost view of because of the mountains, It was silent. Strangest thing I've ever seen.
It was not like any falling object I have observed in the past from time to time seeing what most call falling stars. Just curious if anyone had seen this object. Also if any idea what it could have been. Thank you.
