Pseudo Sunrise

Pseudo Sunrise

Date: June 1, 1970

Location: Vegas, Cayey, Puerto Rico

During military war games, I had the midnight watch. I woke up my relief at 03:30 a.m. and told him to come out and watch the sun rise. I can best describe it as a band of light that reached from the left to right horizon. It traveled across the sky until the entire sky was light. It was twilight - light enough to read by, but not daylight.

I could not see a source for the light. The entire sky was illuminated equally. There was a gradual lighting until the entire sky was light, and the a gradual darkening, much like a sun rise and sun set.

It took approxametly 15 minutes for the entire event. I have heard of a similar incident, on the History Channel, that had been reported by Christopher Columbus.
