It happened when I was playing pool at friend house.

Relatives of my friend were outside and told us to come out a look outside. When I looked up I saw a brilliant flourescent orange light moving toward us at a very slow speed. It was about 5 miles away and moving toward our direction at about 2 thousand feet above. As slowly moved toward where we were (within about a 1/4 mile. I noticed it didn't have any sound to it even though it exibited amazing characteristics.

It started to glow violently brighter and brighter. It driped something on fire (molten metal?) that burnt out before it reached the ground. It slowly started to climb in altitude. Then all the sudden it shot straigt up at faster than light speed.

A few years later in Arizona I saw what appeared to be the same object being escorted by 2 military helicopters with their lights out.
