A massive red ball hovering in the sky

I am writing to share an experience I had decades ago that has stayed vivid in my memory. Recent discussions about aerial phenomena have prompted me to finally come forward, as I believe this encounter might hold some significance.

When I was 19 or 20 years old, around 1976 or 1977, I was driving home late from Los Angeles CA. It must have been around 3 or 4 a.m. as I traveled southbound on the 57 Freeway, approaching Lambert Boulevard. That’s when I noticed something extraordinary in the sky.

To my right, there was a massive red ball hovering in the sky. It was very large, and its presence was undeniable. It stayed in one spot for about a minute to a minute and a half, and then, without any warning, it completely disappeared. There was no sound, no movement—just silence.

This incident has stayed with me ever since. For years, I only shared it with a few close friends, unsure of how others might respond. But with all the current attention around unexplained aerial phenomena, I felt it was the right time to document my experience. I don’t claim to know what it was, but I know what I saw.

I would be happy to provide additional details or answer any questions if this account is of interest or relevance.

Thank you for taking the time to read my experience.
