Object in Contrail

Date: September 8, 2004

Location: Kodiak Island, AK

I’m here on Kodiak island, Alaska.

We went river fishing for salmon nearby the Coast Guard base, COMSTA, Communications Station, and I laid on my back in the warm weather watching contrails from departing Anchorage jets flying southwest towards Hawaii or the Philippines.

I noticed the same exact silvery dot maintaining a precise location in the sky while the contrails drifted and the lower clouds scurried over the mountain tops.

I thought a weather balloon would drift, even a short distance in mild weather.

It was almost windless, but I thought it peculiar anyway. It may well have been a weather balloon.

Still, it was in the contrails and out but never moved anywhere across the sky. Too high for a tether too.
