I saw a bright orange sphere that hung in the sky for nearly 10 minutes!
I was outside walking my dog when I looked into the northern sky and saw a bright orange light approaching extremely slow. It was a sphere shape and would have been about as big as one of those lamps on top of a tower. As it got closer it was obvious that it was some kind of air craft, not a meteorite or any sort of space debris just by the shear fact that it was moving so slow. The object was high in the sky and didn't make a noise as it passed over. I know it couldn't have been a plane, because any planes that come into this area of Memphis are preparing to land at the International Airport and would be much lower. The orange light that the craft emitted was bright like fire, but constant like a light bulb. The craft took nearly 10 minutes to cross the sky, as I had time to call two of my friends while I was watching it! This was the most eerie, awesome thing I've ever seen.
