July 3, 2017 at 9:32pm. 3rd of 4 consecutive sightings, with in approximately 20 minutes of each other. (i'm reporting them separately) i was at a pre-4th of july party. we were at the end of the driveway in a residential neighborhood. in addition to watching fireworks going off, we were watching the sky because we had just seen two unusual unidentified orbs to the left/south of the fireworks at the west end of the street, then from the corner of my eye, i saw what looked like the same identical reddish-orange, very bright glowing orb, only about half the size as it first appeared the other times. like the other times, it looked slightly hazy around the edges, as if the atmosphere was being disturbed around it. this time it was to the south of me and flying at a very fast speed from east to west. i was able to catch most of what i saw on video. it was visible for a little more then 30 seconds this time. until that night, i had never seen anything in the sky that i didn't think could be explained, i would love to know more about what i've seen. i also would like to know if anyone else reported seeing it. there were other people out watching at the same time obviously. there were even neighbors a couple houses down out watching at the same time. i was to embarrassed to go ask them what they thought about it. i apologize for the bad language caught on the video.
