Benton, Missouri (United States)

Shape: Disc | Duration: 00:01:00
Source:

At an outdoor BBQ and was noticing how beautiful the night sky appeared when I and another gentleman noticed a very bright light that was moving from west to east in a straight line pattern. Speed is unknown, but I have been around military aircraft and know for sure that it was going faster than anything that I have ever noticed. No sonic boom was noticed.Tried to get other people to notice but it happened so fast they did not see it.Unsure of height of object though it appeared to be flying about the same altitude of a commercial plane.
