Full Report Text:
red fireball/orb in night over Lakewood JBLM 9/13/16 Saw a fireball/orb type in the sky. It was dark. Always check on the stars right before I go to bed.
It was flying over Lakewood, JBLM. Pretty slow, but not too slow. Then it made a right angle turn (a "v" shape) and flew direction opposite, turned almost white then fizzled out.
The atmosphere smelled like burning chemicals. It was bizarre. Not a plane (used to those in the flight path at JBLM), not a copter.

Third time I've seen this. This time strange because they were red at first than turned white toward fort Lewis then we're gone. Third time I saw them what's stranger.
Its like they know when I'm going to be looking and in a short while there here over my home.
Full Report Text:
3 colored lights that changed direction It was exactly 10 p.m. I saw 3 glowing lights red and green color it went down and then shot up and to the left and then straight out and disappeared like it hit warp speed.
So basically the red and green lights went down and then when it went to the left and out it hit warp speed and made a bright white light It lasted about 10-15 seconds. I was standing on my back porch letting my dog out who before I let him out was acting oddly. And I look up and noticed that the sky looked oddly light blue, and that's when I saw it.
I know it wasn't a satellite and I know it wasn't an airplane I've never seen anything like that before.
