A civilian housewife observed a brilliant red round object the size of a medium sized pumpkin, at arm's length, with what appeared to be a glowing ring around the outer edge similar to a halo.
The object appeared to be at high altitude traveling East to West at an excessive speed.
The object appeared to stop over western boundary of the air base and bobble up and down.
The object then traveled to the South for a short distance and then back to the position it had previously stopped at and then continued west.
