Large Orange Object Seen Near Newtown Pennsylvania

Date: January 1, 2011

Time: After midnight.

We saw the same thing in Northeast of Philadelphia near Newtown PA. We did the same thing, went outside New Year's so the kids could make some noise. There were 4 adults who saw the slow moving orange light. It was in the southern sky, moving west to east, about 80 degrees from the horizon. It was visible for about a minute.

It was similar to a sighting of the Space Station when it goes overhead, but this was definitely bigger and orange, not small and white light the Space Station. It was too slow for a meteor.
