Full Description of Event/Sighting: While driving east on route 29/73 in Upper Frederick Township we observed a single reddish-orange ball of light above a tree line that was fairly close to the road. No other colors were visible from the object at any time of the display.

 

At first it did not appear to be moving and could have been mistaken for a radio tower light, except for the color and that there are no towers in this particular area. As we passed, we noticed several vehicles had pulled off of the highway with their lights on and assumed they were watching the light.

 

We travelled a few hundred feet and pulled into a driveway and the light appeared to have moved further from the road in a northerly direction which appeared to be toward the Red Hill/Green Lane area as the previous report cited. The light diminished in size and appeared to quickly blink out with surprising speed close to the general direction of two aircraft that were in the area at the time.

 

We turned our vehicle around to see if we could speak to the drivers who had pulled off of the road, but saw them slowly driving away within a few seconds of the object disappearing.

We were unable to determine size of the object as there were no points of reference. If it were a tower light, the light was large & bright enough that the tower would had to have been situated quite close to the roadway and nearby houses. T

 

he orange-ish color of the light did not match any of the numerous towers which are clearly a bright red, nor any of the other air traffic which was visible at the time, sporting red, green and white lights.
