Late last night Tasha and I were about ready to go to bed and I had just got done taking our dog, Piper, outside to do her pioneer style business ('The Final', as we call it). I had come inside and set about my bed-gett'n-ready routine, when Tasha, who was in the living room, came hustling back to the bedroom and asked, "Was it raining outside?"
Initially I thought piper had somehow gotten wet and I was about to be charged with the task as to how on earth that happened. I then responded, "No. Why?" Tasha then proceeded to anxiously tell me that she saw what looked like lightning outside...but not lightning...just light...a BRIGHT light.
I could tell she was unnerved by this experience, but I thought...I have no idea what to do about this. Ultimately, I said I have no idea, but I was sure it was nothing and proceeded with my sleep preparations.
It wasn't until this morning when I overheard one of our programmers talking about a 'bright light' that I did some additional investigation into the previous nights events. That's when I came across the video below. This is one time that I am actually glad to hear that a meteor came violently crashing into the Earth's atmosphere. Now I can let my wife know how crazy last night actually was. And that there is an explanation to what happened.

That's crazy! That's cool that she actually saw it. Now it makes me wish I had been outside last night at that time...if only I had a time machine...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. I'm a bit bummed. Here I was still up and totally unaware of the coolness just outside my door.
