UFO Sightings

Hyper speed aircraft

This story was submitted to the site by Hazzardpro1 from Lake Tahoe, United States.
I was with a few friends floating on the waters of Lake Tahoe on the Fourth of July, I think it was 1999. It was an hour or so after the fireworks ended and as I was laying down on the deck something moving through the sky caught my eye. It was a vapor trail, and it was moving across the sky at unbelievably high speeds.
It had to be traveling ten times faster than any aircraft I have ever seen. The object creating the vapor trail was not visible, no lights. We could only see it because the moon was illuminating the vapor trail. It was not a meteor, it didn't break up or flash, and it traveled from horizon to horizon. There was no sonic boom either. But because it was leaving a vapor trail, it was still within the atmosphere, not in low earth orbit. All of us watched it cross the sky.

I am a flying enthusiast, with enough knowledge and experience to understand that what I was looking at was going much faster than anything known to the public. Some of us thought it was a UFO, but I don't. I think it was advanced human technology, a secret plane of some kind. Aurora perhaps? Whatever it was, it was real, it was fast, and it was awesome!
