Red UFO in Junction City

Summary

A witness in Junction City, Oregon, reported a round, reddish-orange object that stopped for two minutes before disappearing behind clouds. The observation was ground-based and visual, with no physical evidence or photos. The object moved from southwest to east, and the witness couldn't accurately estimate its distance or speed. Although a hot-air balloon was considered, it wasn't confirmed. The report, part of Project 10073, doesn't offer a conclusive analysis of the phenomenon.
