no you are 100% right. we were on us36 on our way to Springfield, il and i was looking for ison at sunset. me my wife, and brother. my parents called me in the car in front of us asking if we saw the bright light. this is before i found out ison "didn't survive" the sun. i saw,where ison should've been, a long streak that wasn't moving. then about 5 mins later i saw another smaller streak. both keeping length and slowly moving across the sky. from over the sun to the right of it. then over the smaller streak we saw a bright light, like a star. then it dimed, then brightened, dimed again then went bright again. all of a sudden the bright light started stretching then turned into a tail and streaked across the sky pretty quick. i don't know how to explain what i saw. about half way across the sky, almost right over our vehicle, the tip started to glow bright like a star again. just for a moment. then it went by and out of sight. the others did the same. i seriously think we witnessed the near apocalypse. u know the gov wouldn't have said a thing cause of mass panic. either way, whatever it was, asteroid pieces, alien crafts, or a damn top secret plain or rocket with important ppl on them escaping what may be coming. no matter what it was very intense. if neone has pics or video of it or more info please e-mail me at [email protected] i'd love to show my friends what we saw.
