Greetings ATS'er...

OK... This is a UFO. This is real and these are photo's I took. This is a UFO to me. Perhaps, however it should be called a Unidentified FALLING Object. As the sun set, it showed up pretty clear as seen in the pictures. As the sky darkened, so did the object, then disappeared.

Any thoughts as to what this is?

Space Junk?

Comet?

These were taken last evening:







EDITED TITLE .. Thanks MOD!

Wow, those are some pretty cool pictures. How fast was it falling?

Thanks... it was very slow. It was in the sky a good 10-15 minutes.

I hate to say it, but it looks like plane contrails lit up by the sun...not a UFO

Google Image Search of "Contrails sun setting"

More images of contrails while the sun set

and some more...

Thanks for sharing! Keep looking up

I was thinking the same thing as I watched. The contrails typically break up much quicker than this one that I witnessed. The direction was not of any flight path that I have seen. I never seen them vertically however. They usually form across my back yard horizontally.

That would be what we call an "plane"

No, that is what we could call "a plane". Does that sound right when you read it back to yourself? Proofread your own words before posting them for the world to see.

I was gonna say maybe this is like the phenomenon we discussed in a thread I started last week, but you said it was in the sky for 10-15min. Any chance you live around where they shoot up rockets?

Contrails last based on temperatures/weather conditions waaay up there in the atmosphere. And they can last for very very long periods of time. Or sometimes less than a minute. Please read this thread Contrail Science on the formation of contrails.

Also, planes sometimes do change paths and flight patterns. Depends on traffic, weather, etc.

So with all that said, based on your pictures, there is no reason for me (and others) to believe it is anything but contrail being lit up by the sun.

If someone can provide evidence that shows this is wrong, I welcome it

No, but there is an active flight pattern for flights on approach. Not that high though.

I am quite certain it is a contrail. But, it was very cool to watch. I will say though, I have watched sunsets from my backyard for 5 years now. This was a first.
