Unknown Object Photographed over Tacoma, Washington
UFO Tacoma, Washington-05-28-07-I went outside my back porch to gather some herbs for a late dinner. When I was heading back into the house, I noticed a rather large reddish-orange/yellow round object near the moon. It looked really unusual so I stopped to watch it.

It appeared to move slowly westward in the sky. I got excited so I yelled for my husband to come here quickly!

He also thought it was very peculiar so he went in to grab the camera, while I did not want to take my eyes off it. It looked like a fireball to me, but it moved so slowly and in a controlled fashion from east to west. I suspect it was not a meteor.

It definitely was not an airplane or helicopter. It was completely silent. I stayed to watch it as it faded from sight, still hight in the air several minutes later. I wonder if anyone else saw this thing? I saw it from the Tacoma area, on the south end of Tacoma. It appeared brighter with the naked eye than the picture I have included. By the time he got the camera, it was further away than when I first saw it. MUFON Submitter 7112
