National UFO Reporting Center Sighting Report
Occurred : 2/15/2017 19:00 (Entered as : 2-15-17 19:00) Reported: 2/15/2017 5:58:08 PM 17:58 Posted: 2/17/2017 Location: Wichita, KS Shape: Circle Duration: 1 minute each Characteristics: There was an aura or haze around the object
Orange balls of light in the sky My wife and I were on the back porch and to the east a little higher than the horizon, (above rooftops of homes) a light just showed up, very bright orange in color, would stay in one place for about 30–45 sec or so, then would just vanish, we saw somewhere around 8-9 of them. All within about 5 min or so. None of them were that close, all to the east but miles between each other. One of them showed up and moved horizontally towards the NW and went behind some roof tops, I went to the front yard to see if I could still see it but could not. Another white one showed up much higher in the sky and dropped downward in a speed comparable to a jet and then lost a lot of glow and vanished as well, no tail end to any of them. Just round balls of light. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD))
