SIGHTING: WALTERBORO, SOUTH CAROLINA (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"SAW OBJECT OUT OF BACK WINDOW. IT WAS A VERY BRIGHT WHITE LIGHT WITH GREEN AND RED LIGHTS PULSATING.I THOUGHT AT FIRST THAT IT WAS AN AIRPLANE, I PULLED UP AND PLANE TRACKER ON MY PHONE TO SEE IF IT WERE A COMMERCIAL FLIGHT THERE WERE THREE FLIGHTS NEAR BY AT THE TIME. ONE WAS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF TOWN AND NOT IN MY FIELD OF VIEW. THE OTHER WAS SLIGHTLY OFF THE COAST IN THE DIRECTION OF THE OBJECT. I WATCHED THE TRACKER AS IT PASSED MY LINE OF SIGHT AND I WAS UNABLE TO FIND THE PLANE. THE THIRD PLANE WAS FARTHER OFF THE COAST AND OVER THE HORIZON. WHILE I WAS LOOKING FOR THE PLANES THE OBJECT I WAS SEEING DID NOT MOVE. IT STAYED AT THE SAME POSITION. NOT CHANGING ALTITUDE AT ALL. THIS OBJECT SEEMED TO STAY IN THE SAME PLACE FOR A VERY LONG TIME APPROX TWO HOURS. AT ABOUT 7AM I WENT BACK TO THE WINDOW TO CHECK ON THE OBJECT THE SUN WAS RISING AND THE OBJECT AND GREATLY INCREASED IN ALTITUDE AND WAS MOVING UP AND AWAY TO THE SSE. I ESTIMATE THAT THE OBJECT WAS AT AN 70 DEGREE ANGLE WHILE IT WAS MOVING AWAY. IT WAS HIGH AND AS THE SUN WAS COMING UP I VANISHED HIGH IN THE SKY. I WAS THINKING IT MAY HAVE BEEN A DRONE BUT WHEN I LAST SAW THE OBJECT BUT IT WAS REALLY HIGH IN THE SKY. I TRIED TO TAKE SOME PICTURES BUT THEY DID NOT TURN OUT WELL. JUST A BLURRY WHITE DOT. I STEADIED THE PHONE ON THE WINDOW TO GET A STABLE PHOTO BUT THE CAMERA ON THE PHONE JUST WASN'T SENSITIVE ENOUGH TO GET A DETAILED PHOTO. THIS WAS WITNESSED BY ME FOR ABOUT TWENTY MINUTES THEN I WENT TO GET MY WIFE AND WE WATCHED IT TOGETHER FOR AWHILE. WE LEFT THE WINDOW TO SIT DOWN AND DO SOME ONLINE SEARCHING FOR OTHER POSSIBLE EXPLANATIONS AS TO WHAT WE WERE SEEING. WE CAME BACK TO THE WINDOW AT 7 AM WHEN THE SUN WAS COMING UP."
