Disc shaped object seen in the middle of the afternoon. Driving north on highway 17 (Roosevelt blvd) at about 4pm just past NAS Jax towards my left (East) I would say maybe 2 or 3 miles away was a large probably disk shaped object (about the size of my Galaxy s4 held at arms length. I was traveling at about 60 mph and could not tell if this object was stationary or moving but I think stationary. I saw it a few times through the tree line until I reached San Juan ave. then it was just gone. When I first saw it it was level and the last time I saw it it was at about a 15 degree incline (no idea if it was facing down or up as the shape was very uniform). I was not the only driver to see it as I noticed other drivers trying to get a picture of it (I tried but was unable to get it without stopping and there was too much traffic to just stop). I honestly have no idea what this thing could have been. This just happened 25 minutes ago and I fine with you contacting me if you need to.
