Size of Object(s)20-30 ft. Distance to Object(s) & Altitude50 ft. / tree top level Shape of Object(s)round Color of Object(s):white light Full Description & DetailsA friend of mine and I were sleeping under the stars up in his backyard not paying attention to the time. We were both going into the 7th grade the next year to give you an approximate age of us. We were both just looking up at the stars when this bright white light 20-30 ft. across going maybe 3 mph flying east to west flew directly over the top of us at tree top level. It lit up the tops of the trees. It made no sound or wind what so ever. I had never seen anything like it before or since. I've always been into airplanes and such since I could name off any type of aircraft just by looking at it, but this thing was completely inexplainable. Just a big round bright light. This is where my friend and my stories differ a little. It either stopped over us as my friend said or it coasted over head without stopping as I remember. Another strange thing is that we did'nt say anything to each other as it approached and we did'nt pursue it. Normally we would have followed it because of our curiosity. When it was gone we just looked at each other and said lets get out of here, and we ran back to the house. We did'nt talk to each other about it till the next morning. We just went to sleep. We told his dad about it in the morning and he just blew it off as kids making stuff up. I moved to Ohio a week or so later and we havent really sat down and talked about it since. One other thing to bring up is that we lived approximately 3 miles from SEATAC airport which did'nt make sense to me why this object was so low and so slow and moving towards a busy airport. Other CommentsI've told a few people about this experience but it usually just turns into a laughing kind of thing.
