1ST OF 2 PHOTOS TAKEN OF UNKNOWN FIERY OBJECT.
Description: Well here are 2 pictures I took last week. I was coming out of Scarborough downs in Maine (OTB) 11/24/15 and saw this ball of fire all same color flying by at about 1,000 feet. I, first thought it was a small plane with engine on fire, but as it passed by there were no sounds. It was too fast for a hot air balloon and it continued to fly east probably. I watched it for 30 seconds until I couldn’t see it. It was, very weird.

This was probably a Chinese lantern or a meteor. And I’m guessing the altitude & time of observation are likely not precise.
