Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Lights on object

As I looked out from our DC-9 window I saw a huge aircraft.It had rows and rows of brightly lit windows.

I flew with Trans World Airlines in 1986 as a flight attendant. While preparing the cabin for landing the Captain made an announcment to the passengers. If we looked out on the left side of the aircraft we would see space debris. I bent down to look out of the window and I saw a huge craft. One could not see the top or bottom of it. It appeared very close but yet was suppose to be 100 miles away from us. It had rows and rows of brightly lit windows...one row on top of another that went on forever. It slowly passed... going in the opposite direction at an even speed. It was very, very huge as huge as a flying skyscraper turned on it's side! Not one passenger mentioned this thing. My flying partner confirmed what I saw. When I questioned the Captain he said it was space debris.Believe me ...it was not space debris.
