Duration: 30-60 sec.
Incrediably fast object hovering then accelerating to tremendous speed, and then disappearing.

I was in the left back-driver side of the car looking to the north of Connecticut,driving north on the highway from East to Branford. The sky was clear blue without a cloud in sight. Noticing what I thought to be a commercial airliner I focused my sight to see what type of plane it was. As I steadied my gaze I realized the object wasn't moving but rather hovering, and as I looked closed there seemed to be not distinctive edges to the craft. I alerted my fellow passengers in the car in the car just so I didn't think my eyes were playing tricks on me. As I looked closer the color of the craft appeared to be a white to faded chrome like color. The strangest part of the whole sighting though was that, as the other passengers int the car started to take more of a notice to the ship, it began to move very fast in a parallel direction with us. It was an unexplainable speed which I have never seen before in any man made vehicle. Then without inclining or declining it just disappeared. I'm still dumbfounded as to what it could of been, I am much more intrigued into what it could of been....if anyone can help me with this post a response to it somehow on this site. Thank You
