I went outside and waited for my grandfather and mother to drive to the store. I gazed up into the sky, and saw a moving orange ball like aircraft. I thought it was a Chinese lantern at first, but soon realized that the lanterns do not move very fast. It was an orange-red circle figure. It moved normally in a straight line heading east/southeast.
Then after 20 seconds of doing that, it started ascending into the sky. It took about 7 seconds to ascend before disappearing. A few seconds before ascending, it made a jet like noise which I thought was awkward. There were some clouds visible, but it was clear enough to where you could see the stars and all.
The video footage I have is unedited, but I did zoom in while filming to get a better view of the object.
((NUFORC Note: We spoke via telephone with the witness, and we found him to be sincere and seemingly sober-minded. PD))
