We were on our way home tonight on D Ave. When in the sky I could see what almost looked like one of those candle lanterns off in the distance. I could quickly tell as fast as I said what the heck is that, that it was NOT one of those. It was moving towards us going in the opposite direction we where traveling. As it got closer and bigger I could totally tell it was not a plane, copter or anything like.

It was very bright!! Like fire orange bright, and it had 3 lights all orange in color on the bottom.

I have no clue what it was and I have not been able to find anything online to explain it. We quickly turned around in a driveway and tried to chase it, but in the short time it took us to turn around we couldn't find it. We went all back down the road to 131 expressway with no luck...

Lots of jets in the sky because it was a clear night. But this clearly was WAY to low to be a jet, was not a jet because of the light and man I'm just dumbfounded. Wondering if others have seen the same thing. It was just so so bright…
