Saw large chrome ball flying in the night sky, and uncle claims to have seen it 3 times in Mexico.

I was on my way to work at the lumber mill, in Oregon. It was December, about 5AM in the morning. Coming up the road towards the mill, I looked up at the clear night sky and saw what appeared to be a large chrome ball. There were no lights on it, but the chrome seemed to be light itself, however, the air around it didn't have a glowing haze or anything. It's hard to describe. I could see it was slowly following the river across the highway, near the mill. I slowed to a stop to watch it. It moved awfully slow and I was taking in the detail. It really looked like chrome, and I saw no windows. It seemed to be about the size of a pickup truck. It kept going until some tree obscured my vision, and I started to drive up the driveway to work. I was in awe of what I saw. It didn't occur to me to grab my phone to snap a picture, however, I have a cheap phone with a bad camera, and the photo wouldn't have come out in the night sky. The mill is a large complex a! nd has many tall lights. It seems the object may have been inspecting the mill, perhaps trying to discover what it was. I discussed this with my uncle who was a Green Beret in Vietnam, and who did 27 years in special Forces. He told me he has seen the chrome ball 3 times in Mexico, and one flying saucer about 30 feet above his head. He also claims that some “men in black” showed up to his house in Mexico, while he was away, and the neighbors told him about it. When he retired, my uncle lived in a house on the beach in central Mexico.
