And it was during the day. I was just about to takeoff from the Wichita Mid-continent airport around 11am when I looked up and saw what appeared to be several (7-10) contrails moving very fast from east to west. At first I thought it might have been a KC-135 refueling a flight of F-16 but, as I looked closer there were several contrails that were streaking in and out of view. Not to mention the whole mass was moving about Mach 40. It was probably just some P.O.S. Russian spacecraft.

That was a meteor? :eek:

I was headed west for a kid b-ball game at 11:30 and almost wrecked when I saw that. It was moving too, went from horizon to horizon in just a few minutes. I thought it might be some kind of uppity person escort but the speed was incredible.

Sounds like some disintergrating space junk, esp. with the multiple contrails.

You know, the greatest entrepreneur will find someway to send up a robotic space craft to sweep orbits above earth to clear out the old junk and clear orbital pathways. Someway there has to be a way to charge people and make money to do that...

STEPHENVILLE, Texas — In this farming community where nightfall usually brings clear, starry skies, residents are abuzz over reported sightings of what many believe is a UFO.
Several dozen people — including a pilot, county constable and business owners — insist they have seen a large silent object with bright lights flying low and fast. Some reported seeing fighter jets chasing it.

Some guy in a black suit held up a wand and I saw a bright red light. I can't remember much of the incident now.
