Time: 10:45 p.m.
Location of Sighting: west Caledon ON, just south of Orangeville
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Saucer or diamond shape.
Full Description of event/sighting: While watching TV in front of patio door, huge glowing object caught my attention. I called the wife over, turned TV off and we watched it cross our view for about 15 seconds. Object was travelling west to east, toward Aurora,and not changing in altitude, which I would estimate to be 5000 - 10000 feet. I would estimate speed at twice that of a jet, about 1000 mph. It appeared to be quite large, and we could make out a defined shape in the consistent white glow. My first impression, and my wife agrees, was a round saucer shape tilted forward 15-30 degrees. There was a glow to the rear which would also make it appear diamond shape like the other nearby report from last night ( we are 40 miles SW of Lake Simcoe.) From inside the house we did not hear any noise. Object was definitely too slow to be a meteor and was close enough that we could see a solid core in the glow, so I if 3 miles away, the size would be over 150 feet across.
Object must have been just south of Orangeville and the visibility was very clear with heavy jet traffic approaching Pearson Airport from the north. I would be really surprised if no one else saw this as it was so huge and in view for a long time. Immediately after observing the object, one of the jets made a dozen zig zag maneuvers, and turned his spotlights on, I think he was reacting to the object crossing his path, and then (I'm guessing) air traffic control started using another approach path as the jet traffic in my view immediately stopped. We were seeing a plane every 2 minutes, and then only one more followed the zig zagging one into Pearson.
Thank you to the witness for their report.
