1999-03-13 - Angeles Crest Hwy, CA - Sphere

I was out of my car on the highway, releaving myself when a very bright sphere shaped object came out of the valley and flew strait up.

I was driving from a friends house, late at night from an area around Palmdale. I stopped my car to releave myself on the side of the road when I saw a fairly medium size object, which was sphere shaped, come out of a valley region of the canyon. There was a haze around the objact that reflcted it's gray-silver color. A humming sound was coming from the object and the sound resonated in my ears to the point where I felt some pain. Note that the area was very dark and the only light that orginally was there was from my headlights. The object slowly began to rise from the valley and then suddenly accelerated when it became level with me. It shot straight up into the sky and then it was gone. I was fairly calm but was still troubled by what I saw. Later when got to my dorm in la Mirada, I had much trouble sleeping and had a tremendous headache. I woke up the next morning ok but still a little shaken. Just for the record, I had not been drinking and in no way have I ever used drugs.
