2000-09-21 - Glenn Ellyn, IL - Oval

I've seen the oval object as though all from small lights which was moving slowly in the air.

I was driving from COD Seaton Computing Center, using the road which goes parallel to Lambert. I've seen the object on my right, it was flying in the direction of the near-by school, slowly. It was like as it was made of many very small lights, with a couple of big slowly flashing lights. It was flying above the tree tops, and was rather big (may be 50 metres in diametre). I started to slow down, but other cars (two) passed me by, as though they did not see anything. I took the first road on my right (to the school yard actually) because the object was moving perpendicullar to the road i was driving, to my right (in direction of COD main campus). I followed it untill the road ended, and somehow though the object was moving slowly, it was already far away. I was looking at it from there, and it was still in the air when I started to drive home (it was late and i had to go), and from the distance it was a small enlighted oval, i would not notice it anong the lights from the street light. The object was very beautiful when it was close to me when I've seen it.
