Duration: 12 minutes

Location: Elizabeth, NJ, USA

Shape: Orb
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aircraft nearby

orange spheroid seen flying over elizabeth NJ floating north to south & vanishing after approx 12 minutes

a bright orange orb seen overhead at approx. 150-250 meters off the ground. At first I though it was toy ballon that initially appeared over a tree but instead of rising upwards it kept a steady straight line flight from north to south as I watched it crosss over the local YMCA in Elizabeth New Jersey. It was not a balloon but a deep orange colored orb that was moving slowly until it dissappeared out of sight.

This sighting is the second time I have seen this orb in almost the same setting in elizabeth, as I saw it last year.

My theory is that it may be a weather instrument launched out of Newark Airport which is close by and I am contacting the FAA offices at Newark Liberty International to see if this might not be the case.

Yesterday the Sunday the 3rd was a day of heavy chemtrail spraying over Union County which I have documented on film. Unfortunately I did not take any photos of the orb since I was too engrossed in watching the object move slowly across the sky as I was documenting the cloud anomalies from the chemtrails. The orb passed out of view and then I could no longer see it as it seemed to just vanish in its journey south.

The other time I saw this orange orb-like object last year the same thing occurred as it was there and then seemed to vanish out of sight, although it was floating much higher in the sky then.

NUFORC Note:

We suspect that "chemtrails" are, in fact, just normal contrails behind high-altitude aircraft. PD
