Witness Testimony

"Ok, this is not an april fools joke. on 04/01/2020 at 03:45 the sky was crystal clear, looking south/ sw (about 210 degrees) from our house we saw a reddish orange glow just above the tree tops. at first i thought it was the planet mars but realized it was moving upwards in the sky. very slow at first then noticeably faster. my wife and i watched for at least 2 minutes then it disappeared and you could hear the noise like a rocket after. i know wallops island, va has launches that can occasionally be seen from here. i have been searching the internet and can't find anything about a launch or any reports. very strange."
