Daytime UFO Streaks Overhead

I am retired, and live in Dallas. We have two airports. Also, military jets fly over at high alititude, every day. I know how to identify normal objects in the sky, including satellites, and meteoric phenomena.

However, after doing some light chores in my back yard this afternoon, I decided to stretch out on the ground for a moment. I have 5 cats in the yard. I was wearing very dark polarized sunglasses, and could see most of the clear, blue sky.

It was not long before I saw a white, etherial looking and plasmodic shape moving at a high rate of speed. It was at high alititude, and climbing at a few degrees. It banked up and down, and side to side only slightly, but enough that I could see the corners of an apparent triangle shape. It was not equilateral, because the object had what appeared to be a crescent-type effect on the trailing edge.

It climbed out of sight, after crossing the sky in less than 15 seconds.

It gave the impression of intelligent control and purpose! It made no sound, left no contrail, picked up speed, and behaved as nothing I have ever seen. I repeated many times, "I don't believe it!" It was just plain weird! It left an impression I shall never forget- the quiet, effortless passage through the atmosphere!
