Looked like Haiti UFOs seen the same weekend.

I was driving just north of Las Vegas. There was what looked to me like a metal weather balloon with engines on both sides. I had a head on view of it. I did not stop to look up when I drove under it. It was less than a 100 feet above my head when I drove under it. It was parked between two mountains where the road intersected it, just floating in the air. It looked exactly like the Haiti UFOs seen the same weekend. It was practically silent except when I drove under it I could hear a constant whirring noise, just a few decibels above my car noise with the window down. I thought it was a weather balloon or some advertisement until I realized (when I got far enough away to see it in my rear view mirror) that it was no longer there and secondly when I saw the Haiti videos. I could not see the engines since I was in a car and my view above me was clipped, and since I was driving up a hill when I saw it head on it was only the metal that I saw. It was on the same scale of a car or two length. I thought it was much further than it was until I kept getting closer and the scale changed.
