Occurred: 2000-10-23 11:00 Local
Reported: 2001-06-23 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 6 minutes

Location: Sacramento, CA, USA

Shape: Cylinder
Characteristics: Aircraft nearby

I saw a cylindrical object hanging in mid air while waiting for a bus at Sacramento Airport out side of B terminal. While standing there I looked over the terminal building, and at the 11o'clock position of the sky I saw a shiny Silver cylindrical object . The object remained in the same position for about 4 - 6 minutes. I thought I was viewing a plane head on, but there were no wings visible and no motion `or movement. I could not tell if it was spinning or just shinning in the bright sun. I got on the bus and could still see it in the same position. I have always thought about this incident as I go through this airport every week at the same time. I read another report on this site describing the same type of event and decided to report this. The incident I am reporting actually happened on Oct 23,2000 at 11:00am
