This reminds me of something I saw a few years ago. I was driving down a mountain road when I noticed a round ball which appeared to be floating through the nearby trees on the passenger side of the car. It attracted my attention because it was red in color and sparkled much like a red laser marker shimmering against a dark wall. It looked like a sparkling ball of red material. I mentioned it to my wife who was riding with me. She was watching it as I drove around some sharp curves. I could not see it for a while and asked her what it was but she remained silent. I asked her several times what she saw but she did not respond.
I kept driving since I could not see the object. Later my wife described a really strange sighting that had circular lights on it that she could not identify. I gave her a hard time for not telling me what she was looking at since I would have pulled over to the side of the road to view something this weird. She said that was the reason she did not talk as she knew I would have stopped and she was afraid. I hate that I missed such a grand opportunity. I wonder if she was wise in avoiding the thing.

It looked more like a hot coal in the sky. This hot coal was taking a random walk. No high velocity motions or high accelerations were observed. It did not blink out, it dimmed out like an automotive dome light. When it came back on it was of another brightness. It was as bright as an automotive tail light at a distance of 1/4 mile. I was out going out when I saw it and and typed the original message from a bar. I checked my coordinates coming home with my car's compass. It was due south of Johnstown at an angle from the horizon up 70 degrees. Maybe someone else saw it from another location and we will have a fix on it. If I had to guess I would say is was ball lightning, or a fire in a balloon. I saw other things in the past, like the Kecksberg thing. It came out in the news on the next day. We will have to wait and see what comes of this. At least I got one data point.

It was a light several times brighter than Venus. It was far away and appered just a little bigger than point like. The diameter was bigger than a star. It was at an angle of 70 degrees up in the sky south of Johnstonwn PA USA. If I had to guess I would say 10,000 feet. The sky was clear. The moon and Venus were showing. The time wave 8:50 PM. What attracted it me was its color. It was not the color of any aircraft landing light. It was redish orange in color, sort of like the color of a 12 volt incandescnet bulb run on 6 volts. The color was a good match for one of those solar powered road signs. There was a road warning sign near by and I matched the color. It was a good match. It did not move like an aircraft. It meandered around at a low velocity for about one minute. Then it got dimmer and cycled off and on on random intervals of about two second intervals.. An aircraft would have to be traveling in circules to do this. Then it vanished. It had not moved for its positon when it vanished. If it were a helocopter it should had still been visible. I know not what it was. Frank Znidarsic
