# Skipping Orb (observation from 1 September 2026)

Project Hessdalen, 2026. _hessdalen.org_.

A witness report during the 2026 field trip, at 22:08:14 UTC on 31 August 2026 (00:08 local, 1 September), of a white orb that skipped west twice, growing and turning orange, under cloud at azimuth about 245–250°; one camera near the community house caught a small light at the same time and direction. The project calls it the first witness report verified by camera footage since the 2024 upgrade.
