Initial data
At about 16:55, the author of the original material received a call from a friend (WM) and reported that he and his girlfriend had just seen an object in the sky. As they were driving down the street, he looked to the right and noticed something in the air moving from right to left. It was the size of the tip of a pencil held a foot from your face. There were no lines on it ... it looked like liquid mercury, but dark gray in color, like stainless steel. And there was a little trail behind him, and he was moving very, very slowly. He pointed this out to his girlfriend, and she said:
"Well, I've never seen anything like it either."
As they drove on, they observed a round object moving slowly next to the chimneys. It was close enough that he could see figures on it, but he couldn't make out anything. If there were wings or a blade (of a helicopter), you would see it. But there was nothing ... no flashing lights.
After a while, it seemed to be moving at such a slow pace that he couldn't tell if it was moving or not... it was almost floating, he said. He watched it for about 3-4 minutes.
Original news
Date: Saturday, November 23, 1996.
Location: Sudbury, Ontario.
At about 4:55 p.m., I received a call from a friend (WM) who reported that he and his girlfriend has just seen an object in the sky. As they were driving down the street, he looked up to the right and noticed something up in the air, moving from right to left. It was about the size of a lead tip of a pencil held a foot away from your face. It had no lines on it...it was like liquid mercury, but darker grey like stainless steel. And it had a little bit of a trail behind it and it was moving very, very slowly. He pointed it out to his girlfriend and she said: "Well, I've never seen anything like that either." It was very distinctive-looking.
As they drove down further, they watched as the round object moved slowly near some smoke stacks. It was close enough that he could see shapes of things on it but couldn't really make out anything. If there had been wings or a (helicopter) blade, you'd see it. But there was nothing...no flashing lights. After a while, it seemed to be moving at such a slow pace that he couldn't tell if it was moving or not...almost hovering, he said. He watched it for about 3 - 4 minutes.
