Blue light orb that changes colors to red and white.I was outside having a cigarette at 00:15 when I noticed something slowly but steadily rising up from the tree line. At first I thought it was someone shooting fireworks, because it was red/reddish light with a slight streak upwards, but there was no bang. No sound at all. The object was hanging in the air at high altitude but below the clouds, it seems. It was a solid blue glowing for a few minutes. It then started strobing and changing colors. The colors were blue, red and white. After 6 minutes it started descending again, but the lights were super bright white. When I looked with binoculars it hurt my eyes. I was not able to stare at it like a normal object for more then a few seconds at a time.I have taken video on my phone for 6 min 17 sec. My wife also saw it and described that it was flashing red, white and blue. She then got scared and went inside, leaving me there to film the remaining few minutes. The object went down from where it came up from. The descent was eerie and slow, with super white lights. I lost it behind the tree line and homes behind my house.((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD))
