I was sitting in my yard looking in an easterly direction, when I noticed an unidentified object moving in a northeasterly direction at a slow speed. It had some kind of blue lighting but i could not discern a shape. there was no sound emanating from this object. i would estimate that this object was about a quarter mile east of me. i would estimate that the said vehicle was about 25 ft above the treeline. I lost sight of the vehicle from the position where i was sitting. I rose from my position which was on the southside of my house, to the eastside of my house to see if i could get a better visual. At that time I lost sight of the unidentified object. I live in an area where planes and helicopters fly over. This object did not display the flight characteristics of these vehicles or any sound and flew at an extremely slow speed. the duration of the observation was about 15 secs. Then vehicle disappeared from my view. I did not at anytime see it accelerate. Just lost sight of it.
