2 witnesses, summer 2013, Orb or orange light, moving VERY fast.

My friend and I were out fishing offshore late at night. We saw a large orange orb approximately 5 miles away.

After about 2 minutes I realized the object was moving away, and ran towards my car for an optical enhancing scope. I didn't have binoculars, so the the scope on my rifle would have to do. Fully zoomed in on an object that was quickly moving out of sight gave nothing but pure orange light.

I could not see any detail before the object left our field of view over the tree line.

I have viewed the ISS before moving through the sky, and this was much faster. Unbelievably fast, in fact.
