saw a sphere the size of a disco ball near the power lines.Was turning on itself,loss track of it after went pass a tree.

In the year '77 or '78 i think, i was 12 or 13 at the time and saw a sphere, just like a disco ball but a little smaller. I was riding on my bicycle, heading home in the afternoon around 5 p.m. It was sunny and hot and in that area lots of farmers field, the houses were on the other side of the street, i don't think anybody saw it but me.At the level of the power lines and beside a big tree,it seemed to rotate on itself, i lost track after the tree blocked my view.I was very close to home and i advised my mom right away, she of course didn't believe me. What scared me the most was much later, last year i believe in 1998, the shuttle was experimenting new equipment in space, and there it was, the sphere, but for the shuttle crew it was their new observation 'floating' camera,the same thing i saw again except 22 some years later.
