Bug Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 (edited) Did anyone see or hear the meteor? It woke me up. I walked around the house trying to figure out what had exploded. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/aplocal_story.asp?category=6420&slug=WA%20Meteor Edited June 3, 2004 by Bug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chucK Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 That's what that was?! Yeah I got woken up by a rumble or something (you know how that is, when you get woken out of a deep sleep, you know something woke you up, but the details are pretty fuzzy). I was sure enough that it was something as I got up and walked around and made sure everything was where it should be. Â Crazy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billcoe Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Hoax? (Not the Butt inuendo, thats real I just read it) Â Published: June 03, 2004 12:20 PM EST Â NEW YORK Associated Press editors were forced to retract an earlier report that a meteorite might have hit near Olympia, Wash., this morning after discovering that a source, one Bradley Hammermaster, claiming to be an astronomy professor, had perpetrated a hoax. Â http://www.editorandpublisher.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1000524192 Â Maybe ya all heard swamp gas?

Bronco Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Woke me right up. I looked out the window (facing North) and didn't see anything. Sounded like a loud series of popping in the Monroe foothills, like a bunch of big trees breaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bug Posted June 3, 2004 Author Share Posted June 3, 2004 On the news this morning, people were calling in from Salem to Bellingham who had seen a bright flash and a firey ball descending. The one from Salem said it was greenish. The one from Duvall said it was yellowish orange. Both said it took about three seconds to disappear. That suggests it was moving pretty slow realative to a meteor. When I saw a Russian sattellite came down in 84, it was purple and flaming. Other people who were not on drugs concurred.

Off_White Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 (edited) Are you sure you don't mean 94 Bug? I saw one of those events while out walking in Olympia with friends after dinner. Winter night, but clear, and we had an excellent view of about 7 twinkling masses of varied size slowly cross the horizon. Really freaked out the drunk sitting along on a bench, he wanted to make sure we'd seen it too. News afterwards claimed it was a Russian satellite. Â Edit: A little searching reveals it was November 1997. Here's a link from a questionable source (ufoinfo.com ), but the descriptions of the event are as I remember, including the claim it went down in the Pacific despite the fact it was still well above the horizon as it disappeared east.

Alpinfox Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Driving back to Portland from Smith Rock one really cloudy night in the summer of 1999, I was in the Warm Springs area when a meteor streaked through the clouds right above me. I watched it breakup into 4 pieces and disappear over the horizon. It left a glowing tail that lasted 3-4 seconds and stretched across about one-quarter of the visible sky. I wonder if I could have heard anything if I wasn't in a car. Â It was one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Â I woke my girlfriend (now ex) up, but not in time for her to see it, so she thinks I'm crazy. She might have other reasons besides the meteor story for thinking that.

moonrover Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I saw one of those at Smith on Sunday night! It was AWESOME! Did anyone else see it? It lasted about 5 seconds. I remember seeing one like that a few years ago at Smith too. Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
