NUFORC Sighting 103189

Occurred: 2013-10-03 22:15 Local - Approximate
Reported: 2013-10-12 22:17 Pacific
Duration: 2 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Clarksville, AR, USA

Shape: Circle

Solid orange circle/orb streaked through the night sky; no noise, tail, or glow

This was my second time to see this phenomenon within a week. Both times I was fishing, but in different places (about 3 miles apart).

I was baiting my hook & once again turned to look at the night sky for whatever reason and saw a solid orange circle/orb flying horizontally less than a quarter mile from the ground and about 300 yards away from me.

It's size was just a bit smaller than that of a full moon from my perspective. It was orange & easily visible in the night sky as if it were a light yet there was no glow or shimmer. Also the circle/orb left no tail & made no sound as it streaked horizontally.

After a brief second or two of being in plain sight it disappeared as if the "light" had gone out or as if it accelerated at such a rate that I could not perceive it. Exactly what happened the first time I saw it a few days prior.
