Hartland, WI

At around the event time, me and some members of my family saw a single distant light, or reflective object, in the sky. It wasn't moving, but about 10 minutes later it was in a different location in the sky. The same thing happened about 15 minutes later when we saw it in a different location again, but this time it moved across the sky slowly from east to west. After it stopped moving, it disappeared again.

Hartland, WI

On July 4th 2014 at about 9 pm we were driving down Hwy 16 on the freeway at 65 mph in a convertible we were on the border of leaving Hartland and entering Pewaukee..the rural area. I looked up and saw something bright orange and red glowing I thought it was something on fire. I said to my husband what is that? He said I cant see it! I could see right up into its bottom though it was high up it was big and a oblong square shape. And was a intense orange with red lining and looked like it was radiating fire or pulsating red, As we passed it I kept watching it over my right shoulder it stayed there and I kept telling my husband to look in the mirrors it's still there. He couldn't see it! I watched it in my side mirror till I couldn't see it anymore. At a distance I saw white lights or a white glow on the top of it. I wanted my husband to stop the car or turn the car around cause I wanted to see it again. He just thought I was looney, as I described what I saw, and didn't believe me. As I looked at it in my side mirror as we were driving away from it I was comparing its size to the tree line and it was big cause I watched it in the mirror for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes going 65 down the freeway. I'll never forget the intense orange and red colors or the way it glowed, lights don't glow like this.
