Great Balls of Fire in Georgia and Ontario

So, I've seen the CNN video of the Georgia UFO, and it looks identical to many others that have been touted this past year or so.

Georgia (at very end of clip): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1Gj8TaFTn4
Poland: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2tzTA2UUfs

Another, obviously a jet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRocD9_nOOs

I've seen these before myself, and there's no question they're simply jet contrails at sunset. Why they're labeled as mysterious is more the mystery.

However, I did get a UFO report from Northwestern Ontario recently in which the witness said the object he observed was: "similar to object reported Georgia - CNN."

This was on Monday, December 6, 2010, at 5:30 pm local time, at Perrault Falls in Ontario.

In this case, however, I doubt it was a contrail. He said it was an "orange-ish, very bright ball, similar to a baseball hat," moving from the northwest heading southeast. It was flying very low, parallel to the ground and traveling just above the treeline at about the speed of an aircraft. It disappeared behind some trees as he was watching it.

The Georgia and Polish objects were observed for a fairly long time, whereas this Ontario object went by relatively quickly. I'd be inclined to think it was an "ordinary" fireball rather than an aircraft.

But you never know.

  1. The Georgia one is interesting (not the contrail at the end.)

    Is that just venus, or a star, that simply looks odd, taking on distortion because of the intense zoom? So hard to tell without the benefit of being there real time.
