At times, the object's trailing edge became greenish in color, the leading edge yellow-orange, while the main body remained white. It had a long, even, a white train of smoke trailing behind it, much like a thick contrail, which crossed the entire length of the sky. The object was very bright and seemed to have what I thought of as “sparks” coming from the trailing end, which was teardrop-shaped.

Sky and Telescope Magazine Cover - June 1966 Funny that I did not connect these two events! (This is the night I had run out the front door into the street and stubbed my big toe!) Something was mentioned about the Lawrence High School just across Shiverick’s pond to the west, and the Falmouth Fire Department were mentioned also. My brother, Barry, and cousin, “Binky”, yelled over to us as they crossed the front yard later that night, that they had seen a “flying saucer” earlier, just above the Falmouth Public Library, which was just across the street to the south. away, directly across the street from the house. I remember feeling frozen in place as I watched this thing – I thought it was maybe a burning aircraft – moving parallel with the rooftop of the Hall School which was about 200 ft.
GREAT FIRE BALL FULL
I remember that the sky was still light and absolutely cloudless (about 30 minutes after sunset) when I noticed a ball of light about the size and brightness of the full moon approaching from just slightly to the left, or, south.

At around 7:15pm on Sunday, Apforty-eight years ago tonight - I was 8 years old and just passing by the open front door to our house, which faced due west, at 55 Haddon Ave., Falmouth, Mass.
