Witness Testimony

" Yellow orb, fades to red over Yakima.First: I realize there is meteor activity lately and I am sure it is not such. I had just walked out of my house and looked up. At first I did see a plane BUT after changing view, see a glowing yellow orb. I call out a friend and they started recording with their phone. For a short time the orb bobbled up & down with faded ghostly fume like prongs on it, 3 of them. Then the orb faded off into the sky east turning red. All above WV Yakima. I have also seen this exact report a few days ago. "
