Fire Balloons are some of the strangest things, ever, to see float by. They're really good for tricking people into thinking they've seen something from another world. Because I think it would be a bad idea to release something that has the ability to burn down acres of forest, I once accomplished a similar effect by dropping blinky, color changing LEDs into white balloons, clustering them, and releasing them. They moved too high and too fast in the wind, but for the short time they were visible it was actually really pretty.

I once saw the International Space Station traverse the sky during a sunset. Brilliant, bright, and fast!

I saw video of the phoenix lights, Lookout. Truly birzarre stuff. Of course, they have something to do with a file box found by construction workers. Uh-huh.
