NARRATIVE

- Cylinder shape with bright white line across its bottom.
- Moving slowly from West to East in light North wind.
- Sighting happened just after nightfall, object's shape was barely discernible against the sky's last twilight.
- Object located 8.3 km away from the Athens International Airport, at approx. altitude of 1.5 km above ground.
- Estimated size was (much) larger than an airplane, with no wings, exhaust, blinking lights, or noise present.
- The usual air-traffic to-and-from the airport was flying much higher, and didn't seem to notice or get bothered by it.
- Faded in the distance after approx. 4-5 minutes.
- Two eye-witnesses. Didn't catch any photos/vid because we were too busy trying to figure out WTF was it that we were looking at.
