The object is silver with a sphere and a disk, as is seen very much the same way as Saturn is in telescopes, with the exception that it moves back and forth in the sky as and crossed over 120 degrees in less than an hour. Video in U-matic, VHS can be provided. Unfortunately there is no info regarding the inclination of different video sources to extrapolate distance. Though this can easily be calculated based on wide angle shots that cover the horizon and local mountains.
