Witness Testimony

" Orange-colored, star shaped and sized object hurtles through space, I witness and wonder about it.There's not much to tell; I had come home from a party with a friend, and I was looking out of a window. There was an orange sphere moving, and my first thought was that it must be a shooting star. But it didn't have the trails or anything like that.Either way, I watched it for approximately 10s and it moved behind the mountain and out of sight. I know no-one will believe me, but there is a US military base not far from here, and the orange thing was flying in a straight beeline towards there.And I have seen shooting stars; I am capable of telling the difference.((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.
