Be damned if I can even remember the year, but mid 60's I'm sure. I was young, and I can't remember if my sister was born, but I think she was, which would make it after May 59. Winfield, Kansas. It was late, we were all in bed. My brothers room had eye level windows all around, and suddenly the entire house, but most especially his room (because of the windows) was lit with a very red light.

Loud whooshing sound....and a ball with a red trail of 'fire'. It 'looked' like it landed in the next block...but of course not. Never a word from anyone else, neighbors, etc, or any 'news' about it.

I still wonder what it was.
