Hey Brian, I saw what you were talking about, the bright orange Fireball.
It wasn't the same day as the sighting at Mira (report can be found here: http://the-v-factor-paranormal.blogspot.ca/2012/09/bright-orange-fireball-filmed-from-mira.html) it was a few days later and at around 6:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. in the evening.
My 3 year old was at the dining room table and said, daddy look at the big star in the sky. I went over to the window and saw what looked like a large orange fireball.
It was traveling in what looked like a southeast direction coming in from Cape Smokey area, but way up in the sky.
We went outside to get a better look at it and my 12 year old and his friends were outside watching it as well. When it got close to being over Glace Bay it changed.
This is the weird part, the orange fiery glow disappeared and all we could see was a large dark round shape.
There was a thin see through cloud layer at a high altitude and the object seemed to change direction and head east out over the ocean.
You could clearly see it was above the clouds and we watched it until it disappeared out over the ocean. My sons friend turned to me and said "what the hell was that", I told him it was probably just a satellite and to go finish playing basketball.
This was no satellite though and I have no clue what it was. Compared to all the overseas jets that fly over Glace Bay this thing seemed to be about 10 to 15 times the size of a jumbo jet and we could clearly see it was at a high altitude above the clouds.
Whatever this was, it was big.
It started out looking like a ball of fire and then it was like someone turned off a light switch and the fiery glow stopped and all you could see was the large round dark shape.
I checked online to see if the ISS was flying over cause we've seen it before at night and thought it might have been light play from the evening sun, but the online tracking system didn't have the ISS anywhere near the Maritimes at that time and the ISS isn't round.
If you have seen anything like this in the same area please be kind enough to contact Brian Vike at: sighting@telus.net with the details of your sighting. All personal information is kept confidential.
Also, please feel free to send in your sightings that have happened years ago. So many of these older sightings are nothing short of amazing.
