SIGHTING: NEW GLOUCESTER, FLORIDA (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"While standing on the balcony of my hotel room on the 4th floor looking east onto the ocean i noticed quite a large white/silver non flashing solid spherical flying object just above the horizon approximately 500-1000ft altitude and more than 1 mile away. the object’s brightness and high speed is the reason i noticed it. the object was moving from north to south (from left to right) traveling extremely fast and at a constant speed and direction, definitely within our atmosphere it did not seem to change altitude while on its flight path. as i continued observing for the next few seconds the object seemed to move out to sea before disappearing into a huge cloud system. the event only lasted 5 seconds at most, due to the high speed of the object. there was no loud engine sound apparent at the first sighting and none after the object disappeared. in my life i have witnessed meteor showers and have observed high speed aircraft in practice manoeuvres. i’ve never seen a flying object or any other for that matter move at this speed whilst in the atmosphere. the experience left me feeling utterly amazed but humbled.
