Appearance / Description of Object(s)Huge dark disk, surrounded by flashing yellow and white rays. Moving slighty (bobbing) back and forth. Size of Object(s)An ordinary ruler would measure it about 1/2 " across from a first story window. Really could not tell-- if you put a jet airliner next to it, the circumferance would be 1/3 the size of a jet seen from a distance. Distance to Object(s) & AltitudeHard to tell, but higher than a incoming jet over NYC coming into Laguardia airport. Description of Area / SurroundingsRiverdale section of the Bronx Borough NYC. Apartment buidlings and single family houses. Full Description & DetailsSeen 2 evenings in a row at approximately 10pm, in southern sky over Bronx, NY. Seemed too close to earth to be a star. Hard to judge distance, but seemed to be at the level of a jet airliner--maybe 20,000? Detectable with ordinary field glasses. Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?Neither natural or manmade.
