Shape: Cylinder
Characteristics: Lights on object

cylander shaped flying object flying low with blue lights coming from bottom.

I was driving home from work at about 10 P.M., when I saw a very bright, white light in the sky. At first I thought it was a star or one of our planets in Earth’s view but then it started getting closer. I rolled down my window and looked up as it was flying into my line of vision. It had a red light flashing every few seconds as a normal airplane would, and it sounded like a helicopter.

I thought it was a helicopter until it passed directly over me and I was completely shocked. The flying object looked like a missile or a spaceship. It was cylinder shaped with no wings, and appeared to have blue lights on the bottom.

It was flying lower to the ground than an airplane would fly in a residential area. I would estimate it was flying at about 150 to 200 mph. (It was traveling slow enough to make the object out. It wasn’t just a blur.)

I’m certain this unidentified flying object was not any commercial airplane or helicopter.
