UFO Sighting Report

Date:

April, 8, 2012

Location:

Logan, Utah, United States

Summary:

in the east-southeast sky just under one of the planets I noticed a bright orange red light - I thought was a planet (it seemed at least distant enough to be a jet, however was very bright). seemed to be slowly dropping in the sky. I called my cousin out of his home we watched it fade to a light glow. It suddenly went horizontally south (about 1/8th the arc of the sky) in about 2 seconds and we could no longer see it.

Full Description & Details

in the east-southeast sky just under one of the planets I noticed a bright orange red light - I thought was a planet (it seemed at least distant enough to be a jet, however was very bright). seemed to be slowly dropping in the sky. I called my cousin out of his home we watched it fade to a light glow. It suddenly went horizontally south (about 1/8th the arc of the sky) in about 2 seconds and we could no longer see it.

When I first saw it it seemed to have a very faint ring around it.

To me this was unidentified. I lived on Air Force Bases for years. I worked in the aerospace industry and watched rockets with interest. I do not claim to be an expert, however, I have never seen anything move this fast in my life - I felt my heart sink to see something so extreme.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

I have never seen anything move one direction so slowly and then 90 degrees so fast.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting
