Dear Sirs;

On the night of October Ninth an object was seen in no-the-western sky. The object appeared about forty degrees above the horizon and covered the distance of twenty degrees in five seconds from first observation at 8:05 P.M.

Upon sighting I immediately compared the width of my thumb to the object and found it was about the size of a half-dollar at arms length. There was no wind, at that time, and no sound heard.

I hope that this is able to shed some light on this thing. If you could, would you write and tell me what this thing is.

Sincerely,
