Grass Valley - A silent but colorful flying object zoomed across the
sky over the Sierra foothills just before dawn Friday, according to
some local residents who witnessed the brief event.

U.S. air defense officials said they had no explanation. "It was a
bluish-green light with a large tail," said Ron Talmage, a security
officer who was nearing the end of a night shift when he saw the
unidentified object.

"It had little pieces flaking off of it like it was coming down,"
he said. "Working nights, I see meteorites, little ones, all the time.
This was spectacular and it seemed like it was just a few miles away."

The blaze of color, reported by most observers to have occurred just
before 5 a.m., was seen over a 40-mile area ranging from Colfax to
Penn Valley.

A woman and her two daughters were traveling on route 201 between
Connellsville and Vanderbilt on the left side of the road there was
a field and a bright mass of light.  Within the light there were two
separate balls of light and sparks falling from this mass.  When they
first saw it in the field the objects were 100 feet away from their
car and a couple of hundred feet off the ground.  As they moved down
the road the object moved directly over the front of their car to
the right.  As they continued down the road the object came back and
passed over the car a second time in front and then as they kept moving
down the road the object passed them and went straight ahead and up
on the hill in the distance and disappeared.  The object was observed
for about three minutes. They said they had the local FM radio station
on which is always very clear, but at the time the object was seen
it was so full of static they could not hear it.

One witness observed as he was taking a walk at about 10:00 pm a bright
orange oval shaped light with three white lights around it at tree
top level which was hovering.  He ran up the street and got another
person to observe with him. They watched the object slowly come down
in a falling leaf manner.  At this point it looked like a big orange
vertical football.  It came down until it appeared to be only a couple
of feet from the ground.  They watched it for another minute or two
and then suddenly there was a brilliant flash of bright light and
then the object acsended into the sky and was gone in a few seconds.
