SIGHTING: CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"I saw what looked liked a very bright planet or star--white with a very slight orange tinge on the circumference. i was looking south when i saw it, and really just thought it was jupiter. but it moved. it headed towards me and to my left, which would be northeast. it stunned me that it was moving because i've seen jupiter out every night for a while. but it moved. it didn't just move in a straight line, though, and i've seen things like that before around here. it headed north, then wobbled in its path, and moved more towards the east. there was a commercial aircraft (readily identifiable) directly above me heading north towards the local airport at the same time. the noise from the commercial aircraft made me think there might be military aircraft after the thing i was watching at first, because commercial airliners aren't normally so loud, but i couldn't see any aircraft besides the u.F.O. i was watching and the commercial aircraft, so i dismissed the noise as being that of the c.A. look... i've seen things like this around this area for the last 4 years or so, and i've reported it to you all twice now. i don't know what these things are, but i know this: it wasn't a known aircraft; it wasn't a meteor (which i've seen many of); it wasn't a satellite, or the iss. it literally looked like jupiter uprooted and headed towards canada. no flashing lights. no pulsing. just a single, steady light headed ne, much like what i've seen around here before, and reported before.
