NUFORC Sighting 158108

Occurred: 2020-07-31 16:00 Local
Reported: 2020-07-31 21:53 Pacific
Duration: 20 seconds
No of observers: 2

Location: Vancouver, WA, USA

Shape: Cigar


Extraordinarily bright, metallic, cigar shaped object moving with unchanging speed and direction disappears into trees.

My wife and I were driving East with traffic on SR-14 towards Camas, Washington. During the sighting I noticed the truck behind me swerve onto the emergency lane, then re-enter traffic after the objects disappeared. I assume he was seeing the same thing we were.

I noticed two cigar shaped objects at the same moment. One looked metallic, the other was metallic and extraordinarily bright. One traveling North to South, and the bright object traveling South to North. They were in almost the same location to begin with but when they separated, my eyes tracked the bright object until it was out of sight. I then looked South for the metallic object, but it was gone.

I alerted my wife to the bright object moving North, she did not see the metallic object moving South. She was able to observe the bright object until what she described as the object "disappearing as it entered the tops of the trees". That area is a heavily wooded hillside.
