Two young women reported watching a large, silvery-white object, similar to an inverted soup bowl (dome shape) that approached and hovered over a high school for about 5 minutes. The object had lights of different colors and evenly spaced circles of light like portholes around the lower part.

I could hear the loud "whooshing" sound, like the wind. On each side of and above the height of the object was shiny flat disk that seemed to be spinning.

When the larger object moved away, swaying, the lights in his body went out, leaving bright orange and more weak white light.

During follow-up was the dim moonlight and rain.
