| Description | In a mountainous town in Iran While walking outside at night in a quiet neighborhood street, I saw a glowing red orb hovering about 3 meters off the ground. It moved gently up and down and emitted a strange, non-natural red light. I watched it for about 30–40 seconds. It felt as if the object was observing me. When I began to move toward it, it quickly vanished without a trace. |
