On Saturday afternoon, December 26, 2020, Flt.#3763, en route from Columbia, SC, to Dulles International Airport, around 03:45 pm, at an altitude of 29,000 feet.
I was a pilot flying, we saw an object (white or silver color, the approximate size of a football) for a fraction of a second (our airspeed was ~300 knots, suspected an object flew toward us), which flew front to back by our right side in very close proximity.
