Description (in Witness's Own Words): I saw a Gold/orange colored object appeared to be T shaped shooting across the very clear sky. The moon was full and no clouds were present. I estimate that it covered 20 miles in 4 to 5 seconds. I also saw a pair of shield shaped gold/orange objects low flying at a much slower speed on Thursday or Friday night last week at approximately 11:00 pm. The first thought I had was that it was a pair of swans but there were no wings visible and they traveled much faster than birds on a thermal could. Well that's all I can really recall. I told my wife and a couple of friends, I have never seen or expected to see objects in the sky before.

Investigator's Notes: The witness provided a full concise report. He references the moon so the object in question could not have been mistaken for the moon.  He also mentions previous sightings a few days before.  The "T" shape is unusual and obviously could be a conventional aircraft.  However, given the witness's report this does not sound like an aircraft.  I cannot identify this sighting.
