10. BRIEF SUMMARY OF SIGHTING Oval shaped, dull reddish-orange obj, size of grapefruit, tremendous size for a star. Slowly moving, turned upon ends. Then looked like 3 tail-like protrusions. At that point it seemed about 3 times larger. Obj moved slowly up and down, then to right & back to left, then down to orig position. All the time the obj grew dimmer, until it turned to an orange glow & disappeared.
