Red fireball moving low in sky

We saw a red fireball moving slowly across the sky while driving north on 414. It was low and initially it thought it may have been a drone with a red light but after I pulled over to look closer it looked like it was on fire. I took one picture with my phone camera and another one with an actual camera (I'm on vacation here) before it was out of view/range to see or photograph. It lasted about 1 minute total.

Large bright orange disk or sphere seen at night hovering and crossing the lake outside our summer camp.

Fayette, Maine, June 10, 2021 At about 10PM my wife and I were listening to music indoors when she spotted an object that captured her attention. It appeared to be quite distant and was low in the sky above the tree line on the opposite side of the lake from our summer camp. There is no development on the opposite shore of our camp. Only many acres of forest. The object was flashing and changing color. She and I both watched it for awhile with binoculars before deciding to get dressed and go outside to get a better look. The object was to the right of our camp as we looked westward over the water.

As we stood on our dock watching and filming the object with a camcorder, a similar object appeared directly in front of us. It was again above the tree line on the opposite side of the lake and at what seemed like a great distance. It appeared for only a brief time, and then disappeared. My wife said it streaked away. I was looking through the viewfinder of the camcorder and only know that I suddenly lost sight of it.

Immediately after, a large brilliant orange disk rose above the tree line and across the lake, again looking westward, slightly to the left of where we were standing. It appeared to be quite low in the sky and very close. We could not determine if the actual object was disk shaped or a sphere. Also, it was not possible to determine it's size, as we could not judge its altitude, especially at night. The evening was clear, cold and completely quiet. The lake is only about a thousand feet wide in the section of water that's directly in front of our camp. The object was completely silent as it hovered over the trees for maybe 30 seconds or so before slowly crossing the lake eastward in our direction. As it traveled, it changed appearance (still photos taken from the video will be supplied to the Director). It passed onto the shoreline very near to where we were standing on the dock and went over the top of our neighbor's camp just beside us. It then took a sharp left turn and f! ollowed parallel to the lake passing over our camp and then our neighbor's camp on the other side of ours. At this point, it was heading north. All three camps are lakeside structures within maybe 100 or so feet of each other. It then went out of our sight into the tree coverage.

From doing some research, we have come to think that the original, distant flashing objects may have been stars that are low in the sky and that the refracting light caused the color changes. So we will focus this report on the large object that crossed the lake and was clearly not a star.

My wife will file a separate report of her observation. Her observation was entirely with the naked eye, whereas mine was largely, but not exclusively, through the viewfinder of the camcorder.

Large bright silent yellow/orange orb crossing lake and changing colors

Thursday June 10th around 10 pm, in Fayette, Maine.

I was laying on the couch looking out at the lake. I noticed a bright distant light just over the tree line. It caught my eye because it was pulsating colors: red, green, and white. But it was not moving like a plane, it was stationary. I told my husband and we looked at it through binoculars and it was indeed changing colors. We decided to go out with a camcorder to check it out closer. We stood on our dock on the pond. While he filmed we also noticed at least 2 other distant “stars” over the tree line doing the same thing - blinking red and green.

Suddenly I noticed to our left a much closer and larger bright light, again just above the tree line. It was round and overall it looked yellowish/orange with a small dark orange center. It hovered above the tree line and then slowly rose upwards and started to move in a North Easterly direction to cross the lake. It was changing colors as it moved along. The light was so bright it reflected on the calm water. It was totally silent and moved across the pond, over our neighbors cottage which is only 100ft away from us and then over our cottage before we could no longer see it because trees were blocking our view.

We were looking towards the West and a little bit SouthWest when we first saw the orb. The object moved toward the NorthEast. We watched the bright object for at least 7-8 mins. The camcorder pictures do not show the object as large as we saw it with our eyes. I believe the time frame for this sighting was between 10:30-11:00 pm EST.

The next night we went out again and could see the original blinking dots of light, which we now believe are stars that are low in the sky, so they refract the light to red and green. (I read up on this on the internet.) There was no repeat sighting of the larger, brighter orange orb which was clearly not a star and was very close.
