Red Trinagle over chillicothe illinois woods I was standing on my porch having a phone conversation looking into the sky, I was a bright red object. I have seen many airplanes and it wasn't anything like that. The light was so bright it was like somebody shining a laser pointer into my eyes. I observed for about 10 minutes, it was moving faster then any aircraft i've seen. All of a sudden it stopped dead in the air i looked down at my phone in disbelief to tell my friend and it disappeared when i looked up. I have a wide up backyard and there's no way it could have possibly covered enough ground to be out of my field of vision.

The light was so bright it was like somebody shining a laser pointer into my eyes. I observed for about 10 minutes, it was moving faster then any aircraft i've seen. All of a sudden it stopped dead in the air i looked down at my phone in disbelief to tell my friend and it disappeared when i looked up.

I have a wide up backyard and there's no way it could have possibly covered enough ground to be out of my field of vision.
