Shape: Other

I was in the parking lot of a fast food restaurant and noticed an object approximately two miles away traveling from south west to north east. It first appeared as a black dot in the sky, so I thought it was a stray balloon floating. As the object got closer I realized that it did not move as a balloon would, It did not vary its course or altitude, or move left or right, The object remained stationary in flight with no rotation of it’s body, A balloon would tend to rotate, dance, and move with the wind. There was a slight breeze of about five m.p.h. in the opposite direction the object was heading at the time. As the object approached and passed directly overhead I estimate the speed it was traveling at about fifteen or twenty m.p.h. or about the same speed that someone on a ten speed bike would be moving at. When the object passed overhead It was absolutely silent. I would describe it as being shaped like a loaf of bread. The color was a very dark bron! ze, almost charcoal color with a metallic copper base. As the object passed overhead and went behind me, I noticed that it had a circular indent in the rear of the craft that resembled a crator. About two hundred yards behind me was an apartment complex. When the object flew over it, The object was about two times the height of the apartment complex. That would equal 24 stories. Based on the size of the outside deck of the apartment, the craft was the size of a full size truck.
