Full Description & Details

I was around fourteen years old and recevied a new telescope for Christmas. I was outside in my yard in Las Vegas looking towards Sunrise mountain when something bright passed through my view. I looked up and saw a distant bright light just above the mountain going straight across the sky. I could not see details but the speed it traveled caught my attention. I have seen many jets at that time by Nellis airforce base but I never seen speed like this before. Because of what I saw I watched the area for some time and around ten minutes later it returned but going the opposite direction from horizon to horizon. The UFO was in the same altitude ( just above the mountain) as when I saw it the first time. I only saw it was because I was watching for it, otherwise I probable would have missed it because of its great speed. I would guess it covered from one horizon to the opposite horizon in ten seconds or so. What made it stand out to me was the great speed I have never before or since and the low altitude, just clearing the mountain.
