Full Description & Details

i had exited the small town and was about to attain highway speed in the tractor trailer when i noticed 2 small red lights approaching from the west at a curious height from the roadway. i slowed and tried to get a better view but now had lost sight as i was too close to the travel path of the "lights". i.e. the object was nearly above my vehicle as i came to a stop. i then took sight of the small red glow above me and i shut down the engine of my semi and stepped out the door onto the running board. at that moment i was able to determine the shape and amazing size of the craft as it continued past the roadway. i estimate its speed at 40 - 50mph. I thought it was going to Land. in these moments i sized up what i was witnessing and made mental note of any sound and the crafts size , shape,and altitude. as well as speed and time on my dashboard clock. i knew that whatever it was, it was Not interested in me and it left an impression in mind that it was very Old. i restarted the truck and drove away still dazzled by what i had seen and then hurried to a spot 5 miles away where State Troopers frequent in hopes that they were there. alas they were not. it was a good 7 miles from the sighting before i encountered other traffic.

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

not like anything i have Ever seen or read about

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

i have read about these ufo reports all my life. have seen a few things over the years and most i have determined to be explainable. this craft left me without words to describe or explanation as to what it is and/or how it was there.

Other Comments

i determined its shape from when the craft was at a 30 degree angle from me as it shown in the full moon light. after the craft was a distance of about a quarter mile distance away, i could only detect its movement as it blocked known and familiar stars as it progressed on a definite course.
