Full Report Text:
Summary : At about 9:45 PM, Friday June 6th, I saw a relatively large round orange/yellow fiery light glide straight across the sky from the NE to the SW. I was looking towards the SE. There was no sound.
Several small airplanes also crossed over head that night, and those were quite loud. No light reflected on the low cloud cover, as did the many airplanes I saw that night, indicating it was very low in the sky. One could clearly see the airplanes white, red and blue flashing lights in distinct formation.
What I saw actually became obscurred behind the trees in my yard at one point. It appeard to be only about 1 mile away, traveling over Bothell Way!
The above description captures most of the information. I wish I had been more conscient of looking at relative surrounds to get a better idea of the objects size.
I would say it was close to half the size of a lightbulb at 10 ft from the observer. I was very keen to observe the airplanes that night, to base my observations a the conditions and weather circumstances that night. It proved to me that it was definitely NOT an airplane, It was also not weather related.
I do not believe it was an asteroid of some sort. There was no tail that I could see.I have lived in my house, where I observed this, for over 7 years.
Occasionally airplanes on the horizon "fool" me into thinking they are not airplanes, when they come straight towards me, and their WHITE light seems unusually bright, and they dont appear to move. However, eventually they change course and I can see their distinctive colored lights and patters. In fact what I saw entered my vision from my left and crossed to my right.
It never came straight at me. It's light was consistent in radiance.My background: I am a 32 year old female, and a graphic designer and artist.
I will send you an illustration of what I saw. I may even be able to send you an actual animation, for that is also something I do for a living! I consider myself extremely open-minded to things of this nature, but to this point in my life I have never seen anything like what I saw June 6th! Unfortunately, I was alone and was the only one that saw this from my deck.Julie Brockmeyerjbrockme@adobe.
comps, I did call this in Friday night about 9:50pm.
