The object was about 200 feet off the ground. There was absolutely no sound. It stayed in one spot in the air without moving.

I was in the house in the coldest winter months doing some skin sewing. A friend walked in and told me what he saw. I told him I wasn't going to go see it because I didn't believe him. He finally convinced me so I went to go look. He pointed at the lights. I told him, "It can't be an airplane because its very still in one spot and it can't be a helicopter because there was absolutely no sound." I couldn't think of an object that was like what I saw. There were three different colors on the object. They were red, white and green. There were 6 lights on the left and 6 on the right. We stood there and watched in amazement. It started going slowly then it finally disappeared. It traveled so fast that I couldn't keep up with it. I couldn't believe what I just saw! We were afraid to tell anyone because we thought they might say we made the story up or that we were crazy.
