Awakened from a fitful sleep beneath a leafless tree, Maki was riveted by the strange sight of a conical beam of yellow-green light approximately two kilometers in diameter. Emerging from a height Maki estimated at 11 kilometers (about 33,000 feet), the cone of light raced over his tiny plot for the next 30 minutes. It then swept methodically back-and-forth across an area of about 250 square kilometers before disappearing suddenly, like someone had flicked off a switch.
