Location: Primm (5 miles west of, on I-15 Westbound, NV, USA

Shape: Light


Yellow in color. with a black rectangle in the yellow light. It was traveling from west to east. North of I-15

We were traveling west bound when we saw a light off to our right at about 2 oclock and at about a 45 deg. angle off the horizion. It didnt look like a star or aircraft, it was yellow in color. I told my wife to get the cam corder. The object started to desend rapidly. It leveled off after a few seconds. My wife recorded the object for aprox 15 to 20 sec. then the battery went dead she changed the battery and the object was gone or out of sight. when we played the tape back there was a black rectangle inside the light as if it was part of it. Thinking it could have been an anomily in the camera, I took and shot video of the moon and a star. The rectangle never showed up in the moon or star. With the camera zoomed in the object was about the size of the moon. With the naked eye it looked like the size of an airplane about 5 to 10 miles away.
