SUMMARY: Luminous sphere (white) travelling due west at a very high velocity (it slowed down and then accelerated). It moved along a ridge of a mountain before it suddenly disappeared.
A friend and I were driving from Phoenix to Las Vegas (I believe that the number of the highway is 93). We passed through Kingman, Az and a little later, around 10 pm, I noticed a light moving to our right. I brought it to my friends attention and we watched a single object come out of the east, travelling west over the ridge of a small mountain. There was only one object. It was small and luminous, but not very bright. It looked about three times the size of a regular star. I would have considered it to be a conventional aircraft, had it not been for the way it moved. It was extremely fast. It came in, slowed down somewhat, and then accelerated. Also, its path was a little erratic, not very smooth. After about only five seconds I lost sight of it. It could have disappeared behind the ridge, but to me it looked like it simply vanished. My friend and I are both senior psychology students at Arizona State University. My friend is extremely skeptic with regard to UFOs, but we both agree that it wasn't an airplane, a helicopter, or a satelite.
