UFO REPORT Fairfax, Virginia (August 1, 1998)

An email message from Friday, August 7 stated: "Just curious,
but do you know of anyone reporting something in the
NE/Mid-Atlantic this past Saturday, August 1 around 8 pm?"

The writer then went on to add: "I saw the strangest thing while
sitting outside in a swing and looking at the moon."

Stating to have visually observed something "shoot off" of the
moon, the sighter described an object that was a bright but
small object, somewhat long and thin, but maintaining a steady
shape, speed and brightness.

The speed was said to be rapid, but not excessively fast. "It
was going slow enough that if you took your eyes off of it, you
would have no trouble finding it again," informed the witness.

The object followed a curved path down almost to the horizon,
then changed course and streaked very fast straight overhead. It
was much closer when it passed overhead, although still far from
the observer.

The witness resides in Fairfax, Virginia, and was facing north
when viewing the object, which descended to the east and then
streaked west. Fairfax is 22 miles southwest of Washington D.C.

A contact name and phone number was provided for the person
submitting the report. A call placed to this number confirmed
the identity of the person, as an answering machine took the
call. The telephone number given was the reportee's office
number at her place of employment.

Numerous satellite and/or meteor sightings were reported during
this time frame from Australia and also California. The 'course
change' description indicated complicates a satellite/meteor
explanation.
