Long fireball over South Atlantic oceanMy wife and I were on vacation and as we sat on our balcony watching the sun set, a "fireball" looking object started to go up from the horizon and against the clouds, stars, etc. It started off as one small dot, then it grew into a cigar shape and kept traveling up away from the horizon. I caught a few pictures of it, but then it disapeared in the blink of an eye. The pictures I took clearly show it rising in the sky and elongating like someone was stretching it. Then it simply shrank and disappeared. We thought it may be a vapor trail behind a plane and the sun set reflecting off of it, but it moved too quickly over a large area and there were no lights on it. It was like 1 big light.((NUFORC Note: We wonder whether the witnesses might have been observing a contrail passing overhead. Just a guess. PD))
