Witness Testimony
"Orange slow moving object in night sky above Welkom, Free-StateWent out of home at Maree Street in Riebeecstad, and noticed a round orange object in the sky. At first I thought it was a star but it slowly moved North and then back. Trying to figure out if my eyes are deceiving me, I stepped around and marked the object with some tree branches so I stood still and saw it move again.Went back to the home to get mobile phone and tried to take a video, but was unsuccessful. Then went back into house and when I came out it was gone.The object was larger than the stars around it. It was orange in color and moved slowly. Unfortunately was not able to see when it left.Was facing East when I saw object. "
