NUFORC Sighting 113863

Occurred: 2014-09-23 23:00 Local
Reported: 2014-09-24 19:23 Pacific
Duration: 1 second
No of observers: 1

Location: Pinehurst, TX, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

A craft, to low to be a satellite, too fast to be a plane, completely silent, flew across the night sky for a second, only to vanish.

I'm a sceptic. I don't believe ANYTHING unless I see it for myself. However, last night I was in my backyard when I happened to look up in the clear sky at the exact moment an unidentified flying object with a red light and a white light (may have had another light, but I know I saw a distinct red) darted a short ways across the sky, only to disappear into thin air. It was too low to be a sattelite, WAY too fast to be an airplane (VERY fast), and COMPLETELY silent. Living in the country, I've seen hundreds of shooting stars, and this was absolutely NOT a shooting star. It was low enough for me to make out a vague outline of the craft. Unfortunately it happened so fast it's hard to say exactly what shape it was. In fact, I don't think it was even visible for a full second.
