At about 9:00 PM, I spotted an orange glowing object in my back yard. I grabbed my camera and took these pictures. The object made no sound and seemed to hover for a long time in one place, than it rapidly ascended into the sky. There were a total of four eyewitnesses with me who also observed it. The object appears in the video to be moving around rapidly, that is not the case. I did not have the camera on a tripod and while zoomed in, trying to keep it in the tight shot was difficult.
