Description: Driving back from Trans Canada #105 on Kempt Head Road just 5 minutes from main highway. Had just dropped off Brother-in-law at highway for car pool for night shift...Sister was in passenger seat. Noticed orange object traveling almost perpendicular to road maybe 400m high, speed maybe around 200 kph?..not sure. I was doing about 90 kph. Object was not quite circular but oblong, could have been the size of a couple of mini vans end to end.
When it went over the trees and out of sight I asked my sister "Did you see that?' She just said 'Yes' nothing else. We didn't talk about it again. Skies were clear, it was a cool August night...maybe 15 degrees out?? No wind.
Color/Shape: Object almost looked like it had a bright orange ring around the outside and glowed dimmer toward the centre....but it was far enough away and traveling fast enough that we saw it for maybe 4 or 5 seconds. I was driving at the time.
Height & Speed: see description
TV/Radio/Press: no
