| Orange "flare-up" - plane shaped. I was driving along Highway 169 between 68th Street and Barry Road and somthing in the sky caught my attention. I saw a orange ball in the sky, and looked and it appeared to be an airplane. It went out of my sight, and then about 5 seconds later I saw another orange flare-up. Appeared to be comming from the underneath of the object. Object proceded to disappear from my view after second flare-up. It was in broad daylight, so I ruled out the possibility of the landing lights right away. The sun was overhead, as it was 1:30 PM.. so it could not have been a refraction of the light at an angle. There was no report of any airplane problems on the evening news, or on the FAA website at the time this event occured. Object far too low to be a spaceshuttle re-entering the atmosphere - less than 2000 feet above the earth. Moved a bit faster than a commercial jet. |
