Unidentified object over Saipán

Summary

A bright object was seen slowly falling over Saipán in April 1960. Witnesses described it in various colors, from blue-white to red-yellow, with a tail 20 times longer than its body. Although some thought it might be a meteor, others noted it didn't behave like a typical one. The description varied among witnesses, causing some confusion. The object disappeared by burning out, and several witnesses confirmed it fell in a slow arc, making it different from a common meteor.
