Duration: 10 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Mansfield, OH, USA

Shape: Fireball
Characteristics: Changed Colo

Saw fireball in the sky while delivering papers one morning.

I and my girlfriend were delivering newspapers in a rural part of Richland County. We came to the end of one of the roads of delivery and turned left on the next road of delivery.

We drove to the first house to the left. I happened to catch a glance of what I thought was the moon at first to the east of my vehicle, but the object was too small to be the moon. It was orange and about the size of a quarter held at arm's length and moving side to side.

I tried to track the object, but when I reached the road the object could not be located.

I tried to think of any cause that would explain this; we do have a National Guard airport to the west of this, but even this does not explain what we saw.

I don't remember the day or month, except it was warm.
