Green UFO with Fire Tail Over Texas 1960

Summary

In 1960, a pilot in Texas observed a bright green object with a tail that appeared to burn or spark. The sighting occurred at 9000 feet and lasted six seconds. The object moved at a constant and relatively slow speed, tracing an arc of 95 degrees. Pilots from seven different aircraft reported the same phenomenon, adding credibility to the account. The object exploded upon disappearance and did not appear to be a balloon, meteor, or conventional aircraft.
