Red and orange light appeared to "cruise" steadily, then rapidly ascend at an angle and disappear.I was sitting on my front porch swing. Two neighbors were walking by on the sidewalk. I saw a red and orange, somewhat blurry, but brighter in the center, oval shape drop a little from the northeast, and then appear to “cruise” at the same altitude. I heard a low humming noise. I asked the neighbors, “Do you see that? What is that?” They stopped and looked up and saw it, too. It seemed at first to be “cruising” at a constant speed, and then abruptly changed direction, and within seconds disappeared at an angle toward the stars. I think the most unique thing about it was the rapid escalation up into the night sky that just took seconds. (My father worked for USGS). ((sic. USCG))
