Size of Object(s)about 4 to 6 blocks Distance to Object(s) & Altitude12 to 15 miles Shape of Object(s)fat cigar with uneven lights placed Color of Object(s):faded white Full Description & DetailsAt 10:20 pm while watching my wife ride her crf 100 I noticed an object north of my position. At arms length it was around 5/16 th of an inch and about 1/2 inch off the horizon. it traveled west to east and left a fading streak behind it. The object made no apparent sound or noise. It had multiple lights placed unevenly on it. the area in between the lights was also faded. It was diectly north of me when I first saw it and disappeared into a cloud at 2 to 3 o'clock. from the hieght of the clouds that were low about 7 to 9 thousand feet at the level of horizon it was at least 12 to 15 miles away. I know more or less because behind to the north east is a corridor for planes to land. They look like specks or small stars at 6 to 7 miles and take forever to pass my house most likely 10 min. Anyways it had to be traveling at about 3800 to 4200 mph more or less because it took at that distance 20 seconds to cover 1/4 to 1/5 of the horizon. It took me by surprise and I told my wife. I had to stop her because she would'nt have seen it in time and she got to see it for 5 secs. Anyways when I first saw it I did'nt understand what I was seeing it basically confused me. Witness BackgroundI'm a parts salesman. I have seen othe objects but never one this big. Other CommentsI hope others saw the object so that there is confirmation.
