Location: Avon, CO, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

A very large bright light moving fromeast to west a a very high speed.

I was out walking my dog at about 9:30 at night. I live on top of a mountain at about 8,000 feet. I looked up at the sky and saw a very large bright light moving at high speed from the east to the west. There was no sound and no flashing lights. It was not a plane. I at first thought that it might be the space station.

However, I did some research on the internet and the space station was not over Avon on that night.

There were also not any known satellites in the area. It was also moving much too fast for the space station according to a friend who has watched it several times. It was not a meteor and did not leave a trail. It moved horizontally and was extremely bright. There have been many UFO sightings in our area recently.

I felt that it was important to add this one to your database. I am also hoping that someone else saw this one.
