Flaming Orange Object With Tail Over Qualicum Beach British Columbia

 

Date:  August 24, 2009

Time:  Evening.

 

Date of sighting, the 24th

 

I also live in Qualicum Beach. Tonight my son and I saw a strange light in the sky. Last Thursday we saw the same type of light, but that night a second light appeared.

 

My son noticed the light first on both occasions. The first time we saw it, I thought it may have been a fire of some kind. It was a flaming orange colour and it seemed to vary its intensity. It appeared as if it was travelling towards us.

 

It was very low in the sky, just above some trees. A second light appeared a few minutes after we began watching. This light seemed whiter and was much smaller.

 

It vanished before the orange light did. Tonight, we saw the same orange light in the sky. It appears just above the tree line. We viewed it for about 3 minutes or so and it just disappeared again. Looking through a pair of binoculars, it appears to have some sort of a smoke trail.

 

It seems to stay in the same place although, it may move up and down. We are wondering if anyone else has seen these lights or if they may have an explanation for us. Thanks.
