Shape: Oval
Duration: 5 minutes
Bright shinning cirular craft hovering over Business 85 N.

Traveling right to left (NE) on a crystal clear "blue sky" evening at 8:30 pm, a circular light the size of a house "jitterbugged" across the sky in front of my car - 1000 ft OUT and 5-7000 ft UP, as I traveled with my family. It stayed very illuminated for 2 minutes then VANISHED in a split second. It appeared again 10 miles up the interstate 3000 ft out and 10,000 ft UP.

We pulled over and watched it for 4 minutes over the Grandover Hotel, then it vanished again. When it vanished- it didn't speed away in a direction - it just disappeared from the clear blue sky right in front of us.

It shook me up! I do not believe in alien space craft, but my wife is in the airline business and we know an aircraft when we see it (especially that close), so I am at a loss for what this could be.

I am fascinated how many people were traveling up that interstate and had to see this bright massive light over the interstate - and failed to post it anywhere on the net.
