Witness Report
I was sitting on the beach at Capp Beach in Hopatcong, New Jersey, watching the sky when I noticed a pretty large metallic sphere-like object high above the area. It appeared to be in the southwestern part of the sky at roughly a 60-degree angle of elevation. I was viewing it from land, and it looked to be at a very high altitude, possibly around 25,000 feet above the ground. The object appeared metallic, spherical, and remained visible for about 15 seconds before suddenly disappearing in an instant. I could not determine its speed. No one else was with me at the time, so I was the only witness. The sighting occurred on August 8, 2025, at about 6:15 PM local time.
