Incident date:

Location:

Толен

Netherlands

A large green fireball, a little later a ball with a tail, later only a white tail were seen over Tolen:

A large bright green fireball moved roughly from east to west. At first it was just a green ball, then it had a white tail, then the fireball disappeared, and only the white tail remained. Then it went out. Mute. Optically measuring about 10cm from earth (I would describe stars as 1mm), the largest light I've ever seen!

Original news

Grote groene vuurbal, iets later bal met staart, weer later alleen witte staart,

THOLEN, ZL — Een grote felgroene vuurbal bewoog zich ongeveer van oost naar west. Eerst was het alleen een groene bol, toen kreeg het een witte staart, toen verdween de vuurbol en was het alleen nog de witte staart. Daarna doofde het. Geen geluid. Optisch ongeveer 10 cm groot vanaf de grond (sterren zou ik omschrijven als 1 mm), grootste licht dat ik tot nu toe ooit zag!
