I was standing on the back porch, facing west, just prior to 4:00 am. i have been stargazing lately and wanted to see what was visible. i had the impression of being watched, and looked up over my shoulder to see a dark triangular shape silhouetted against the sky. it was an equilateral triangle with lights at each corner- two white and one red. the object was moving eastward slowly from nearly above my house, with the red light leading. the object appeared to be close, only a few times the height of the trees. there was no noise. i watched it move slowly from above me and over the house, in a straight line, away and behind the trees, and out of sight as the house blocked by view. while i watched it i felt disbelief, waiting for my eyes to make out a more mundane outline or to hear some noise. while i initially thought it hummed, when i continued to listen after it flew from sight, i realized the noise was from the highway. after it was gone, i realized that if it was a plane on a straight path, i would have seen it fly over me while i was looking up, so it's movements before i saw it couldn't have been normal flight movement. i continued to watch the sky for several minutes, hoping to see it again. when i was satisfied that it had gone, i immediately ran inside to search nearby flights. after a few hours of research, i was convinced that there was no flight nearby either in the direction or in visual range when the object flew over.
