Duration: 3 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Raleigh, NC, USA

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Lights on object

Orange light over North Raleigh.

Was walking my dog when I say a floating yellow/orange light about 2 miles away. It was bright enough that I knew it wasn't a plane or a star. It floated there for about a minute before slowly moving across the sky towards RDU. It didn't get smaller or bigger. And kept steady speed while moving. I knew it wasn't a plane before A. Planes don't float in mid-air, B. planes and helicopters don't have lights that stay on at all times. And it moved too slow and steady for a plane coming in to land.
