National UFO Reporting Center Sighting Report
Occurred : 11/1/2003 19:30 (Entered as : 11/01/2003 19:30)
Reported: 11/16/2003 12:30:46 AM 00:30
Posted: 11/26/2003
Location: Ewa Beach, HI
Shape: Sphere
Duration: 15 seconds
Characteristics: There were lights on the object
I was looking up at the sky slightly northward hoping for a glimpse of the aurora due to recent high solar flare activity when I noticed a large very dimly glowing round object silently moving across the sky in an east to west direction. It was barely discernable because it's glow was so dim, but it looked much larger than I would expect any craft that high up to be. If my estimate of its height was in error it should not have been so dim or silent. I see planes in the sky all the time because I live near the Honolulu airport and I have even seen many helicopters in the night sky flying without their lights on, so it was startling to see something so very different in the sky.
