John Nicholls, 45, was in bed watching TV with his wife, Maureen, 50, at 9 pm on November 17 when he looked out the window and noticed an object in the sky.
Nicholls dismissed it as a meteor or a planet but says it started making “odd shapes and changing colors” — going from yellow to purple and white.
