Bright Orange Ball Over Belleville Illinois

Date: October 29, 2010

Time: Approx: 9:00 p.m.

Hi, Brian, tonight, about 9:00pm, I saw at least one orange ball over Belleville, where I live near the downtown area. When I entered "bright orange ball, Belleville, IL" into my search engine, I immediately honed in on your link. I almost equate what I saw to a "luminary-type" object, with the appearance of a fire at the base of the sphere.

There was no apparent sound, but the movement was rather rapid, unlike that of a hot air balloon. It moved from south to north over the housetops. I was on a long-distance phone call at the time, so didn't think to pull out my camera. I'm heading back outside now, to see if I see anything else.

Have you heard any further word on these objects you saw? I'd be interested in hearing what you've found out. My number is (number removed) Thanks. Regards.
