Context: I live in Chicago, not too far from O’Hare airport. My girlfriend and I went outside for the first time in a while to just chill out and talk. The time is 9:28pm CST when this occurred. We are facing each other and my girlfriend is telling me a story. It is dark outside. Out of nowhere my girlfriends face turns into a bright orange and she is stunned. I turned around and saw this giant ball of fire(or at least that is what it looked like to me). I couldn’t make out at all what I was looking at and we sat there staring puzzled as this object as wide as a house was literally right above us just moving straight up vertically. I was so stunned that I didn’t even think to pull out my phone to start recording. Once we realized that this wasn’t a flare or anything obvious I immediately started recording(a minute after we originally saw it). I know I said it looked like a ball of fire but that doesn’t do it justice. It looked like I was looking into the sun and the air around it looked distorted.
