Occurred : 1/27/2016 19:30 (Entered as : 1/27/16 19:30) Reported: 1/27/2016 10:46:57 PM 22:46 Posted: 1/29/2016 Location: Keaau, HI Shape: Circle Duration: 3 minutes Characteristics: The object changed color
Horizontal flying bright white lite that turns bright red and disappears. At first I thought it was just a plane. Noticed after a few seconds there were no blinking lights to indicate a plane. Just a bright white light. Moving horizontal across the sky. After a minute of watching it, I asked 2 people who were outside doing something to check this thing out and to confirm that it is not a plane. As all three of us were looking at it for almost 2 minutes it started to turn a bright red. Then it started to dull in color. Then just simply disappeared. This light was too low for a plane and to high for a helicopter, and no sound. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)) ((NUFORC Note: A missile was launched from Vandenberg AFB, but the launch occurred on January 28th. PD))
