Girardville, PA

On 7/5/20 at approx 0240 I, along with 2 others, were sitting outside talking. It was an extremely clear night. The moon was full and so bright that it actually drown out a lot of the stars. There were 2 other very visible objects in the sky that night that we identified, using a phone app, as Saturn and Jupiter, all in the southern sky. While sitting out, a very bright orange light appeared in the western sky, catching my eye. I asked the people with me if they could see the object. They agreed that they could. At that time my wife began to record the unusual object with her cell phone. We watched as the object moved rather slowly from west to east until it seemed to become stationary and then slowly disappeared above us. The object didn’t seem to emit any sound nor did it have any other lights.
