7/16/95 My grandaughter and I saw a triangular object with lights on each point cross the highway I90 about 150mi. n. of Ill. line at

the highway is divided at that section with trees and elevation.There was no traffic that sunday.I spotted a triangular object comming from my left.wondered if it was a balloon or a kite and looked to see if any lines were attached to it but found none.I checked my speed-60mph-time was about 11:55pm.This object continued to cross till it was directly ahead of me.I asked my 6yr. old granddaughter if she saw anything ahead of us ,she said yes so I asked her to tell me and it was the same as I saw.I am not good at knowing distances or size but it coveredthe width of the two lane highway and was ahead of us far enough that I could view it without bending down and looking up. It stayed that distance at all times as I was going 60mph.Itried to describe it to myself. Itlooked like the color of rust ,triangular,rounded on the corners with flashing lights on each point,red,green and white.No visable windows. There were two bulges on each side .The sides were rounded .For some reason I did not stop as intended and the next thing I remember is looking in rearview mirror to see if I could see the object which I did not.We cotinued on till we stopped just acrossthe line into Minn. Untill that time neither of us spoke nor turned on the radio. A very different mood.
