Appearance / Description of Object(s)

Perfectly Round Spheres that were glowing a Yellowish/Orange light that did not appear to light up the area around it...you could see the edge of the sphere and the light was inside this sphere. it was pretty far from me so it would be hard to guesstimate size but I'd have to say they appeared larger than any light I had ever seen in the sky before...

Size of Object(s)

with index and thumb I would say that they would be about 2" apart, as for actual size I really don't know what to say..they were a pretty good distance away.

Distance to Object(s) & Altitude

I'd say 3 miles away...at an altitude of approx 2000 feet

Description of Area / Surroundings

slight rolling hills/terrain...on rural interstate hwy in central Tennessee.. was told there was a military base in the general direction I had seen the lights.

Full Description & Details

While traveling on I-64 toward missouri in central tennessee , approximatly 10pm one evening, clear sky slightly hilly terrain on the horizon...I had recently been relieved of my driving duties, I had driven straight thru from Clearwater Florida headed for Springfield Missouri to turn in a stretch limousine as a trade and was to bring 2 new ones back with my partner...I was resting in the rear when I noticed in the sky on the left...4 Glowing Spheres of light in the sky...They were hovering in a formation and were motionless for a couple of minutes while I tried to reason with myself as to what I was seeing...I concluded that they were too large to be a light..too high to be attached to a radio tower...too steady/stationary to be any aircraft...I rolled down the window to make sure that the tint wasn't affecting my perspective and I decided to tell the person driving what I was watching when they imploded into themselves and dissapeared...

I decided not to even say anything at that point as I thought he would think i was crazy.

I couldn't keep from looking back at the sky in that general direction...when all of a sudden they re-appeared..in the same formation of which I'll illistrate later...I decided to waste no time in telling my partner this time and I told him to look over his left shoulder...I didn't say at what...he immediatly ran onto the shoulder of the highway and came to an abrupt stop and shouted 'What the hell was that?"....I said I had been watching them for several minutes before I said anything to him to make sure of what I was seeing...

We observed thes objects for several minutes and I satrted trying to take pictures with a camera when a tractor trailer stopped...he got out and walked back to us an asked us if we needed help.....

I told him we were watching those lights in the sky and when we looked back they were gone....

He made a comment that there was a military base in the general direction of the sky that I had pointed to...

Hearing that....I immediatly figured it was some Military crap and I didn't need to be on the side of the road trying to film it....I had tried to take a couple of pictures with a disposable camera but all that came out was black sky...I knew better than to try to use a flash...as not only would it not work...it might attract attention to ourselves...

So we got back in the limousine and drove on to our destination..and I did not see them reappear again.

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

well...I tried to explain away what I saw and every time I think of a possibilty, there is something that was specific that would rule it out...especially the imploding and dissapering out of thin air...There was enough light in the sky that if they had just turned the source of light off you could have still seen the sphere but everything dissapeared.

Witness Background

I was 39 at the time of the sighting, I am now 48, I am a Chauffeur. Although I hope to one day observe a really good sighting and I feel confident that they exist, I am however a very rational calm individual who would handle the situation very calmly...I would be sure to have copies of any and all photos before I told anyone of the sighting in case anyone would try to confiscate them.

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

They interest me and now at the age of 39 at the time of the sighting can say that I now have first hand observation and knowlege that something other than what we have as aircraft is flying around the skies

Other Comments

I've told friends about my sighting and they associated it with The Phoenix Lights....of which when I read up on that I would say that was it...pretty much to a T...
