Silent-more of a slight gush of wind/ triangular object/maybe size of jet/maybe quarter of mile high??

I was at back side of Walgreens at the corner of Franklin blvd and Mack Rd on Sacramento, Ca. on the 25th of July around 2:05am. I looked up to see Jupiter in the sky but then noticed an object not far from where Jupiter would be but a little further down and above the tree and lights. At first looked like maybe a very high street light since that is what it looked like at first till it started moving very slowly, actually surprised it was coming towards me. It was moving so slow that I was waiting to hear a jet engine of some kind but only heard what sounded like a gush of wind/fans or maybe a very slight engine sound-hard to describe since had never heard in the sky a flying object like this. It was triangular shaped I think maybe the size of a Southwest airline jet with a solid white light near each tip/blacker than the sky so it showed up very well and more lights to the center of the object of different colors and looked like it bulged out a little in the center where the other maybe white/red/yellow-can't remember exactly the colors but went over me heading to the slight southwest towards Davis-(a town sorta southwest of Sacramento). By the time I got through with what I was doing-(maybe 2min) I tried to see if I could catch up or sight it since at the time seemed slow enough to do that. I went down Franklin Blvd maybe a mile-right to Consumes River Blvd toward the direction the object was going but it seem to have disappear out of sight. It was one of many times I wish I had my video camera to video what I was looking at-(this tho being my 1st encounter of an overhead object in the night sky). I do have video of a small object appearing in my back yard garage door at night flying from the ground through the sky past my outdoor house camera. I have shown friends but surprisingly they are my uninterested intellectuals who seemed to be only interested if I had video of me talking to the aliens. The object looked like a pure white round disk shape but maybe only 5-8" in diameter-(as I said small). It looked like my camera which will record on movement caught something that turned on to record-then suddenly the an object lights up on the ground-flew up past my camera-(which is sitting maybe 12-16' from the ground). I have experienced this type recording before but deleted it thinking it was a bug????? But a round bug?? Anyway this time I kept the recording. I didn't have a way to record off my house camera's dvd type recorder so I had to play it using my Sony digital Handycam-I had to do a stop tape/then forward/stop tape/the forward cause the object moved very fast and can only capture the object in flight doing this. Through the whole flight of the object if it was a flying insect the shape would have appeared to show such but the object kept its same exact shape through the whole flight past my outside camera. I will give you my email addr but not my address-(but not to far from the sight), or my t#. We'll see what happens with this info. In your Contact info that I filled out does state that all the info is confidential unless I check the "permission to release your name" box which I did not check!! So please do not release any of this info in Contact Info. Thanks for your time.
