Reports Report 2830au (Event 2830-2023)

| Name | Caleb W |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was flying an airline at 35,000ft. While observing this object it came into view and could be seen for a few minutes until it was too far. Multiple aircraft were reporting/asking Air traffic control if they knew of any reentries however none did. It was significantly higher than we were, well above any altitude a jet airliner or any other aircraft could operate at, and left a brilliant orange trail that turned white as it got further away out of view. |
