Light over Markham, ON · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
This object looking like a star from its height in the sky took a slight turn to the right away from the half moon in the clear sky. It then went on across the rest of the sky quickly and disappeared from sight. No sound or any visible flashing but it moved very fast over the whole sky. Could have been something from here but even satellites in space that I have witnessed don't move that fast.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #179239). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

This was a clear night and this object was completely lit up and clear. The lighting seemed amber in colour. It zipped across the sky from the west to north east at the speed if you were watching a teacher draw an arch on a black board. I usually take out recycles at this time before calling it a night and look up often. We have a small airport near by and the big airliners go right over our house to turn left and proceed to Toronto Intl. At 11pm not much Airliners are moving on this pathway but I watched this object come over my garage and zip across the sky at about 30,000 feet (guessing). No wings, just a ball with lights and it was gone.

A flying grey object 3 times the size of a Frisbee. Some shining parts. The object was in the shape of a circle. It was moving to the left around 15 miles per hour. I saw it through the window. It was sparkling in the sun. Only 1 object was seen. The background was a school yard with a flag of Canada and some school buses on the ground.
