Residents in Harbour Mille, a tiny community on Newfoundland's south coast, want to know what it was they saw in the sky Monday night.

Darlene Stewart said she was outside taking pictures of the sunset when she saw something fly overhead.

She snapped a picture of the object in an attempt to zoom in on it to see what it was.

"Even with the camera, I couldn't make it out until I put it on the computer," she told CBC News. "I knew then it wasn't an airplane. It was something different."

A picture snapped by Stewart shows a blurry image of what appears to be some kind of missile-like object with either flames or heavy smoke coming from its back.

Elly Pardy also saw the object in the sky, and along with other residents, reported what she saw to the RCMP and federal fisheries officers.

Officials from both organizations were in the community Tuesday investigating the reports.

The residents plan to be outdoors again Tuesday evening to see if there is a similar sight in the sky.
