Size of Object(s)1/4 moon size Distance to Object(s) & Altitude500 yards Shape of Object(s)orb Color of Object(s):white Full Description & DetailsI was sitting outside on my front steps writing in my journal, when I looked down the street and saw this large glowing object, much bigger than the lights on a plane and too small to be the moon. Anyway, there was stadium lighting directly below the object that was directed onto the soccer field, but this object was above those lights and was several feet above those lights and suspended in midair. I watched it for several minutes waiting for it to move or just vanish, because I could not believe what I was seeing. A few minutes later, I started to think of someone I could call who lived nearby and could confirm whether or not what I was seeing was real. It was too late to phone most of my friends, but I grabbed the cordless phone from inside the house and returned to the front steps to brainstorm who would most likely still be awake. When I went back outside, it was gone. I was told by someone I met recently, that he knew people from the same area at the time who had told him they had seen strange glowing orbs as well. I couldn't explain it then and I am still not sure what I saw to this day. Witness BackgroundI received a Master's of Science degree in Psychology in September. I grew up in Philadelphia and lived on that same street until a few years ago. I have never seen anything like that before in that area, but I have had one other strange sighting that I have never been able to explain. It happened when I was much younger, so I wonder in the memory has been colored over time, but usually I have a really accurate memory for detail especially in a situation as strange as sightings.
