Location: Las Vegas, NV, USA

Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

Near Sunrise Mountain, bright orange red object, somewhat small, traveling as a fairly slow speed came out from between the mountains. My friend and I were visiting outside and she had noticed the object. I looked over and saw the craft, noticed that it was making zero noise, and took a few snap shots and a short video on my phone before the object got out of my focal on my camera. The object traveled at a somewhat slow but constant speed, was very bright, but had a constant slow flicker. It continues outward into the sky and after it was out of the focal reach of the camera, I continues to watch the object until it was too far up to be seen. Not sure what it was, but a stone shouldn't be able to reach those heights, and would make noise. It was round with no distinguishable "body" of a craft, so in this case it was purely an orange globe of light.

This is not the first time I've seen I things in the area, but was the first that was not only close, but very close. Last time I'd noticed something was a group of what looked to be stars moving very rapidly, and in a pack of at least thirty tiny white dots, all in a tight pack but dot of moved around quickly and again, moved off into very high reaches until out of sight. I don't report this one because I'm not even sure what it was, but this recent one was a bit too distinguishable, as well as it coming out from near ground level and out of the middle of a mountain...
