| metalic object high alltitude I was looking at a jet going over head North North East when I seen a metalic looking object moving very slowly. I live just West of Arlington airport. It may have been a balloon but it would have to be very large because of the altitude, I am guessing 30,000 - 50,000 feet high. I could barley see it with my naked eye. I got out the binockulars for a better look. It appeared to be tear drop and looked as though the bottom was moving around. I have never seen a weather balloon, it was to high to be an ordinary hot air ballon, and it was deffinetly metalic because the sun was reflecting off of it. It moved slow from my vantage point, it took about 5 minutes to go from 11:00 high to 1:00 high. One other thing I noticed, at the time I spotted this thing, the birds all around we cherping loudly every where. At about the time I lost sight of this thing the birds stoped as well, maybe just a strange co-incidence..... Did any body else see this thing?? |
