Other facts you may wish to include: Me and my brother whom wish to remain anonomous where fishing in Marion Co. Al. I looked up to watch a small cesna fly by when my brother looked up and said what is that? I said just a plane. He replied, "No that!" When I looked up at what he was looking at it looked like a batton flying end over end. It had two large spheres one on each end. It appeared to be flying at a level you see high altitude jets flying but was much larger. My first thought was that it was maybe a satelite reentering the atmosphere out of control. But then it stoped in mid stream and spun for a few seconds, then made a hard 90 degree turn and speed off.
