Sphere over Tyne and Wear, Dominican Republic

The report, as filed

I was sitting on the beach looking out to sea when I saw a dark sphere way out on the horizon, it caught my eye because of the speed it was going. It flew from the horizon in seconds over the top of me. It stopped immediately for about a second and then disappeared at an unearthly speed out of view. I told the people I was with but was just scoffed at. I saw something I could and still cannot explain
