Looking east, low in the sky, a bright orange circular figure was just "sitting" there.

It was back when Hale-Bopp was around, and my mom and I went out front to view it and we saw this circular orange thing. I was younger and didn't really understand what it was, but now that I know what a comet is, I know that what we saw was not a comet. We viewed it for about 5 minutes.

It was low in the sky and was bright orange. It was like it was the sun, but smaller. Well we ended up goin in the backyard, and finally saw hale-bopp.
