a friend and i were riding home one night,and comeing through a patch of woods on each side of the road ,i glanced out the passenger side window ,and i seen a few lights right over the tree tops.I commented to my friend that their was a chopper right over the trees flying real low,and i thought that was that.when we went a little further down the road ,coming up on a little cross roads ,right between the moon and i ,i seen a strange craft .it looked liked it was turning a circle,like maybe it was lost .but what caught my eye was that it was a shiney ,ultra silver color,so when we pulled to the 4 way stop ,i noticed that it was flying very low ,and after looking for a couple of seconds,i noticed that it was hovering ,over a small field right beside the road. so naturaly we pulled close ,right under it to see what it was.When we got out of the car and looked up ,we realized that it was about maybe 40 ft in the air above us,and it was slowly turning about,pointing in the direction we just came . at that time 4 rectogon shaped lights ,two on each side of what i realized was the rear of the craft,flashed suddenly ,first 1 side then the other in squence,and the craft started to move off slowey,when it had disappered over a patch of woods,we jumped back in the car .and i told my friend to go back the way we had came and try to follow it.As we drove around the road ,talking excitedly,we realized that we had heard no sound whatever,and it was only 40 ft above us.When we had went about thre miles ,the road turning in a circle to the south,we glimpesed,the thing again,this time it was at least 150 yrds away,flying very low,maybe 15 ft above the ground,behind a fence line,and this time i heard a low ssssshhhhhh,the craft went to the end of the field and aparently landed,at which time we asked ourselves if we were going across to look at it close up ,and at that time we declined and got back in our car and left the scene.
