SIGHTING: GILBERT, ARIZONA (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"I was getting ready for bed and took my dog into the backyard so she could do her business. while standing in the yard enjoying the beautiful night i looked up into the sky. after a few seconds an object caught my attention. at first i thought it was a star but it was moving erratically in a smallish area. i then thought it was a drone but realized it was too high. i then got out my phone and started filming. i took two series of videos each about four minutes long. the first video looks at the object from more of a wide angle. the second zooms in very close to the object and it actually took my breath away when i saw it's shape and the light that was coming from it. i live in the third most populous county in the entire country and our air space is insanely busy. there is a very active air force base here, a very busy air port four miles away, and they build bell helicopters, and apache helicopters just a few miles from my house. additionally, there is a hospital within a couple miles of my house with a super busy medivac helicopter and lastly the national guard is periodically flying their black hawks into the desert for practice. lastly, there is a gunner range for the "wart hogs" about 100 miles away. i love planes and wish i would have been a helicopter pilot. hence i am always looking in the sky to see what is flying overhead and whatever this was it's not like anything i've ever seen before. i would love to know if someone has a logical explanation for what i saw."
