Sphere over Honolulu, CA

The report, as filed

We were watching eating dinner along the beach north of the Honolulu Zoo. We saw an orange glowing sphere moving across the sky in a southerly direction. The object changes direction and moves westwards. No visible aviation lights associated with a plane or helicopter. The object turns into a distinct solid black sphere that clearly stands out in the sky and can be tracked with the naked eye as it rapidly moves westwards 2-3 miles out before descending into the ocean. We ruled out a helicopter, plane, drone, baloon, or paper lantern. We captured one photo from our phone and a 40-60 seconds of video as the object moved westerwards before descending into the sea. No blinking lights or noticible sound. A commercial airliner was flying in a perpendicular direction. The speed of the unkown sphere was travelling noticably faster than the commerical airliner as we compared the speed of both the object and airliner.
