On the evening of October 10, 2016, a peculiar and mesmerizing sight unfolded in the skies above Greensboro, NC. I found myself riveted as an eerie fireball blazed its trail across the dimming sky. This was no ordinary light. The object shone with an intense orange-yellow glow that burned vividly against the night, its movement slow, deliberate, lingering for a full five minutes.
Unlike the high, swift jets that cross our skies, this glowing orb hovered lower, moving steadily forward in a way that felt almost conscious. The light was unlike anything I’d ever witnessed—more alive, more haunting. I watched in silent fascination, unable to tear my eyes away, feeling the uncanny presence of something unknown.
Then, as suddenly as it had appeared, the fireball surged away, vanishing into the darkness, leaving behind a sky that felt emptier and a mind racing with questions. Such encounters are rare and leave an indelible mark, pulling the curious and the believers alike into the profound mystery of the unknown.
