Changing over Egg Harbor, NJ

The report, as filed

For the duration of the sighting, the object was flying at what seemed like slow aircraft speed, heading ENE from Egg Harbor City region, over Stockton University area. It was difficult to judge size, speed and distance due to a visual distortion in the air around the object, with what looked like the visible pressure wave that forms around an aircraft when it hits the speed of sound. However, there was no recognizable sound nor sonic boom, and the object appeared to be flying well below mach one speed. If it was small aircraft size, it was likely under 3000ft altitude, and moving at light aircraft speed. However, it may have been larger, higher up, and moving faster. Again, it was hard to judge due to the distortion, which also made it impossible to clearly define the shape of the object.
