i was driving north on I-10 from gila river indian community.

i got on the ramp i-10 north..at queen creek rd.around 8pm or before 9pm on i-10 and before chandler blvd the object was in the air above the highway.

i passed under the object at 40mph as all the other cars and semi trucks.

i looked with my head out my driver side window right under it.

the object was bigger than two or three football fields (( you can tell by not seeing the stars)).

the lights of the cars ,trucks , and highway lamps did not refect off the object.

this object was maybe 200 ,300 feet high ((from the bottom surface to the ground..

from all these years from the event i don't remember how many lights but they were orange in color....

under the object, the orange diameter 15 to 20 ft... to 10 12 ft high the light is like a glow...

but the glow is from straids in this diameter...

this is how the color look is //// the flash bulb of a 50's camera , the straids are orange...

the straids did not move in the diameter. no heat or sound...

you can see a darker blackness inside the diameter circle..

the bottom of the diameter is open to the atmosphere..

all i can say is that the straids of a flashbulb orange glow today there is el wire neon wire that looks like it but in a gas fade look..

i felt a calm manner under it..

the sound from outside of the car can be a mmm transformer or just the tires, hard to tell under the object it felt like a long time.. about 3-10 mins from the miles before to miles after ( after in the mirror)) this event was on my mind for years.. thanks for reading
