Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Silver, it was a distance, but I think it was a "disc shaped". No contrails.

Size of Object(s)

As I was looking at it, I would say 1 inch across from where I was viewing it from my vehicle, it looked small, but it was very very high up the sky. It could have been as large as an airplane, but I can't be accurate because it was a distance away.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

2-3 miles ahead and maybe 1-2 miles high. I'm not good with distance ratios.

Description of Area / Surroundings

Definitely rural area. Country side setting. Trees, flatlands, woodlands, dead corn fields, near a little town of Stryker ohio.

Full Description & Details

I was driving from Archbold Ohio on OH-2 on my way back home through Stryker Ohio. It was mid afternoon around 2PM. The skies were clear, no clouds, a very clear day to view anything up in the sky. I first noticed an airplane as I was driving and I noticed the contrails. But then I noticed another object in the vicinity of the plane, deflitely lower than the plane though. I assumed at first was simply a plane too, but then I said, ok but "no contrails" I started to slow down my vehicle. I was nearing the city of Stryker but I wanted to slow down and keep an eye on the object to see if I could distinguish it and get a better look. It was defintely silver in appearance, it was very high up, I'm not a good estimator, but definitely miles up. There was one airplane "somewhat near the object" and another airplane toward my left. The object was in view for about 30 seconds from start to finish. Then, in a matter of an instant right before I hit the town of of Stryker, I couldn't see the object anymore. Its like one moment it was there, then it blipped out of sight. I'm bewildered becuase the skies were so clear and blue, so I don't know how it could just vanish, but i swear by this, it did just that, vanished. I am 99% it was not of an airplane origin. SAying that, I really don't know what I saw, but it's something I have not seen my whole life.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

i don't think so because of how it just disappeared from the atmosphere right before my eyes within a flicker. NO man made object can do this, at least I've never seen one.

Witness Background

I'm a computer tech at a family ran business.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

I wouldn't consider myself a fan on UFO's but I'm definitely interested on the subject. I have a few DVD documentaries on the subject, "Unsolved Mysteries" recordings etc...I was very pleased to finally have a sighting of my own. I believe some accounts especially when there are multiple witnesses involved, many are just too crazy to be ignored.
