hypersonic arcraft entering Nevada Test Site airspace

On friday January 7 at about 4:20 I was in my back yard about 1 mile south of Nellis AFB. When I saw a bright object ascending rapidly towards the Nevada Test Site, it looked like a rocket being lanched, except it was going straight down. It next made a vertical allignment and started to slow down and head north to the Nevada Test Site. The cloud it left behind was very dark and it was thick. The cloud stayed in the sky for over an hour.
