Reported: 2004-06-08 09:53 Pacific
Duration: 30 seconds
No of observers: 2

Location: Argyle, FL, USA

Shape: Sphere

It was brightly illuminated...like the moon...and about half its size....seen by mother and daughter

It was brightly illuminated..looked like the moon...about half its size in appearance, with a very slight greenish tint, and no trail as it darted above the tree tops. I first saw its bright light moving through the trees as I stood on my front porch. (I was looking west-northwest, and the sphere was moving from north-northwest to south-southwest.)My 7 year old daughter saw it just a second later, and together we watched it move in a fast, slightly jerking motion, in a fairly straight horizontal path, just above the treetops across the road from us. When it disappeared, I assumed it was behind more trees; my daughter says it disappeared in the open. Looking at the trees in daylight as I report this, I think it may have disappeared, because I should have otherwise still been able to see the brightness through the trees.
