A California witness watched a slow moving white sphere moving northeast that stopped and hovered for about 15 minutes before moving south and out of sight on March 14, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.

The witness believes the object was a few miles away and was at about 8,000 feet.

The following is the unedited and as yet uninvestigated report filed with MUFON. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or manmade. If California MUFON investigates and reports back on this case, I will release an update.

California, March 14, 2010 - White Sphere. MUFON Case # 22303.

I went into our back yard and glanced up and saw a slow moving white object. I went back in the house and got my camera and a pair of binoculars.

The object was still there when I came back and it was moving slowly in a NE direction.

I figured it was a weather balloon, but decided to watch it anyway. The sphere, or circle was white and had a glow. It moved slowly for another minute and then...stopped.

The sphere remained stopped for about 15 minutes in the same spot, so I had plenty of time to get photos with my digital camera(I realized it could not be a balloon since the wind would have moved it along).

The object was a few miles away so the shots were taken by using the zoom on my camera. There was no sound and the sphere appeared to be about 8,000 feet up. The object then moved slowly going south and out of distance.
