At around 2:30 in the morning i heard a rumbling sound outside. The house is near a railine but this sound was coming from above. i went outside and saw a craft passing above the house. it seemed about the size of my hand in the sky which would make it decent sized up close. now we get jets and stealth flying over often from whitman so i know what they look like. this was something i had never seen. it was a longish triangle shape with lights strobing from front to back along the bottom. the lights went from reddish to blue. the craft flew from nw to ne not seeming to change in altitude and was in vision for about 15 minutes. soon after two jets followed. i only report this because i just saw a discription on a history channel program dealing with ufos and missouri. the image they showed was startlingly the same as what i saw
