2000-03-09 - Fallbrook, CA - Circle

For some reason I glanced up into a break in clouds, before opening the door of my house causing me to stare intently at a object,that was a strong luminecent orange circle(no fluxuation in intensity of luminecents),with high difinition edges around the circle. As if I were seen,it took off in a straight line about 3in, toward the West, before I lost sight of it because of clouds or surroundings, I don't know which. I estimate the size to be that of a large airliner at 25,000 ft.,or the size of a dime,from the distance of 8 ft. The objects luminecents got darker in the center of the object. The sighting only lasted a half second. There was no sound at all during the sighting that I could remember.
