Location: Cocoa, FL, USA

Shape: Sphere
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object

We saw a bright oval object with rings in the night sky slowly moving, with no sound.

My wife was sitting on our patio speaking to my daughter on the phone. She called me to say there was a really strange light moving behind a tree line on the St.John's River.When I came out I saw a bright object moving south above the river.I knew it was not an airplane because there was no sound.When the object cleared the tree line we nearly freaked out. It was a bright, round object with rings around it.I grabbed my binoculars and was amazed at what I saw. The object inside the rings seemed perfectly round and had a silver grey color. There were bright flashes of light on the surface.It looked like Saturn. It moved very slowly down the river and at times seemed to hover over the water.After awhile it drifted behind the clouds and we never saw it again.This was definitely not of this world.I have always felt that there must be other intelligent life now I am convinced of it.
