Witness Testimony

" I live in Southern Illinois. Last night before dark, my neighbor and I were standing outside talking and I happen to look up and I saw a very bright white/yellowish light flying above, what appeared to be very far in distance, but there were no other colors of light, nor blinking lights, which made me believe it wasn't an airplane or helicopter. It was somewhat cloudy where it almost immediately flew behind the cloud never to be seen again. "
