There was cloud cover, object was moving at a steady pace and appeared to be quite low in the sky.

Description of the Event:

While boarding our boat at Port Motueka, we observed an object flying overhead. Initially, we speculated it might be a drone or satellite, but its altitude appeared too low to be a satellite. The object moved silently, as we could not hear any noise coming from it.

At first, the object seemed to move slowly, but as we departed from the port and headed into Tasman Bay, it rapidly crossed the bay and disappeared over the horizon.

Cloud cover made it challenging to discern its exact shape, but it emitted a bright light that transitioned from a stark white to a warm white as it moved further away. The brightness remained steady despite its speed and distance.

Additional Notes:
• Weather Conditions: Partial cloud cover.
• Duration of Sighting: Approximately 5-8 minutes.
• Distance Covered by the Object: From our perspective, it seemed to traverse Tasman Bay in a relatively short time.
• Witness Thoughts: We were unable to determine whether it was a drone or something else, given its silent movement, brightness, and apparent speed.
