May, 27, 2003 - Phoenix, Arizona, United States
cigar shaped just hovering there - pinpoint lights alongside of it enough to show that it was a cigar shaped.
At the ends of the cigar shaped object there were slightly larger red lights. It never moved, made noise, it just hung in there the whole time I watched it.
Then suddenly it just took off upright toward the sky so fast and but it seemed like it just disappeared as it zoomed off.
