((Woman's name deleted/wife)) and I were driving home on New Haven Ave, about 15 Minutes ago and observed what looked to be a UFO. Not a Joke. It was moving from southwest to northeast.
We pulled over to the side of the road and got out to get a better look. No sound, not moving very fast what got my attention is the lighting. It was a red and orange cloudy glow with an uneven yellow border. Estimate it to be about 3000 feet doing around 250 kts. No white tail light or navigation red and green light. Another guy stopped to see what we were looking at and observed the same thing.
We watched it cruise northeast bound until out of sight.
Been an Air traffic Controller for 31 years and never observed lights like that.
((NUFORC Note: We spoke with both witnesses, husband and wife, and they both sounded to us to be exceptionally capable, sober-minded, individuals. We suspect they are both very good witnesses. PD))
