Duration: 3 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Springfield, OR, USA

Shape: Light


A bright white sphere seen by only myself traveling at a very hight rate of speed at a low altitude.

At approximately 23:00, I observed a very bright light speed across the sky at an altitude of what seemed to be about that of typical helicopter altitude would be. It was moving west to east at a very high rate of speed. It was completely silent. It left no trail as a meteor would. The light was solid bright white with not other identifying lights on it. I have worked in aviation for 3 1/2 years. Nothing that I am aware of could move that fast in total silence. It covered a couple miles of sky in about 3 seconds before going out of sight due to tall trees. Other than that there was no obstruction of view.
