Initial data
While driving, the 26-year-old factory worker drew his wife's attention to a shiny, dull gray "aluminum ellipsoid."
It hovered silently in the North-northeast 25 degrees up (and about 1,000 feet) and looked as wide as the moon. It then jerked and flickered in the ESE (East-Southeast) direction, dropped 500 feet (150 m), and stopped over trees about one mile away for 2-3 seconds.
It then rose again to 25 degrees, then fell and rose five times before disappearing from view due to traffic jams. The observation time is 45-60 seconds.
