Reported: 2014-07-04 23:46 Pacific
Duration: 4 minutes
No of observers: 3

Location: Charlotte, NC, USA

Shape: Disk
Characteristics: Lights on object

Bright orange light circling a disk shaped object.

I witnessed the object approaching from the north heading south. At first it appeared to be some sort of orange light in the distance as it grew closer I saw it shift from side to side slightly, once I realized it wasn't an airplane I yelled to my wife to direct her attention to the light.

As it passed us overhead we could make out the round disk shape and the light was moving around the outer rim of the disk, but not completely around. It would start moving one way and the reverse direction, once it passed it started to fade until it was no longer visible.

There was another guy that came up to us and asked if we were looking at light in the sky and said he thought he was the only one to see it.
