| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | On February 16th, 2016 at approximately 2:00am while in Delray Beach, Florida, I observed two orange globes coming from the east at a high rate of speed and heading toward the west. They were soundless, had no tails or trails of any sort and didn't look like anything I had ever seen before. Not like a meteor, not like a satellite, not like a jet. I reported this to MUFON and never heard back from them. I was unaware of your organization at the time I made the report. What might those things have been? (Three were sighted the following week up by Cape Canaveral.) |
