1/17/03 6:12 am unknow craft moving from west to east shooting from anterior side followed by explosions

I was warming up my motorhome to move it across the street for street cleaning day. I was casually glancing up at the Western sky when an object caught my eye as it was moving Eastward. I thought it was an airplane at first. It didn't make any erratic turns, however it's movements began to indicate to me that this wasn't a plane (eg. it made a leisurely circle would stop for a few moments and then resume moving again). At this point I got out of the motohome to view more clearly. I then notice that the craft seemed to shoot something out of the anterior (west) side. A second later an impact seemed to have occurred causing what I would call an explosion. The craft moved forward a little and I ran in the house to wake up my wife and son. When all three of us were on our front porch, I pointed to the craft which they easily found. A few moments later the craft sent another emanation from the anterion causing the same effect (the explosion) as I had seen a few moments before. The craft remained stationery for a few more moments then then began winking in and out. I noticed that it seemed to be shuddering - then it was gone.
