NUFORC Sighting 173178

Occurred: 2022-11-10 16:38 Local
Reported: 2022-11-23 20:59 Pacific
Duration: several minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Pendleton, OR, USA
Location details: On highway 84, traveling west, near milepost 226 (saw this MP marker on video)

Shape: Cigar
Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

While driving west near sunset, I saw a stationary vertical object in the sky.

I saw a dark vertical object in the sky. I assumed at first that it must be a meteor because it was a nearly vertical streak in the sky. When it continued to hover in the sky and not 'burn out' I decided to start recording (my phone was already on a dash mount, so all I had to do was open the camera and press record). I took several still photos and videos. In the videos, the object seems to blink in and out of reality, then appears in a clear cigar-like vertical shape. I did notice in pictures later, that there seemed to be a haze around the object, similar to heat distortion. I have other pictures and videos but hesitate to give up all rights to them, so am only uploading one.

I have lived in Oregon for almost 30 years.
