Nothern New Mexico AM Hunt

Location: 8 miles South of Youngsville, New Mexico- Monday November 5th 2007 5:30AM A friend and I were outside preparing to begin our hike for another day of elk hunting and noticed something out of the corner of our eyes approaching from the West. We were facing South and watched the object from horizon to horizon as it made it's journey East. My friend is an Aerospace Engineer and pointed out two strange characteristics. The first odd feature were two non-flashing lights, one on the East side and one on West(nose & tail). It also was traveling very low to the trees, approximately 300-500 feet. Lastly at a distance of approximately 1/4 miles or less, it made absolutely no sound, traveled at a good speed 200-300MPH, and we could hardly make out a shape. It was a dead still, clear morning and we heard absolutely no sound from the object. At it's relative distance we should have heard the wind disturbance or hum of the engine if it were a plane. It was something we won't soon forget.
