Duration: 5 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Chesterfield, VA, USA
Location details: Reedy Branch Rd. approaching intersection with Cattail Rd

Shape: Cylinder
Characteristics: Lights on object

Thought it was small meteor or back of a missile (I’ve never seen one). But it was extraordinary fast with no sound. Parallel to tree.

Was driving home from work and an object I can’t explain flew above my car and was extraordinarily fast with no sound. I knew it wasn’t a plane due to the speed and low level. Thought it could be a small meteor or shooting star but it wasn’t moving downward or at an angle, it was moving parallel with the/above the tree line. The back of it was like a small round end with noticeable white light. Could have been mistaken for the back of a missile, which I’ve never seen. There definitely was no sound like with an airplane. It was so much faster than a normal passenger plane and didn’t have wings.
