Duration: ~10 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Superior, WI, USA

Shape: Sphere
Characteristics: Changed Colo

Witnessed bright orange object moving in night sky over Lake Superior....object was moving NE...orange color faded and changed to bright white then back to orange...object changed direction heading W...then back to NE.....became still for a moment...then appeared to diminish in size, changing color back to white as it did so. Its difficult to say but it appeared to be heading away from me as it diminished in size.

My first thought was that this object may be one of those floating lanterns...but when I saw it change directions...and color...I'm thinking it wasn't.

I checked my weather app for a wind speed and direction....wind was at 0.

object was moving slowly...I have several photos
