At around 4am Friday morning I noticed a large green bloom of light. I live in downtown Dartmouth by the pond. Anyone know what could have caused this? I was looking northwest, so it would have been apprx between the bridges from my view. It was a bright hospital green sorta bloom, no bang, no sound, just a large fade bright, brighter, brightest. Then nothing. Cool or…. —dartmouthcasper

  13. I know one person who saw this, and says it was green also. He saw a round object move up diagonally, stop for a moment, then move again in the same direction. I think it moved in roughly the same direction you mentioned.

  15. Nothing like northern lights. More like an airplane, but singular, and moving in a way that airplanes usually don’t.
