I think I detected a UFO.
I was driving in a really rural area a couple of days ago. It was a bright day with scattered clouds that were really high.

I was on a quiet country road with agricultural fields on both sides of me. So if you think about my field of vision, it was essentially this:

crops
ditch
road
ditch
crops

There were no trees nearby, though you could see them at a distance, maybe 1,000 feet away in various copses.

There were no other cars visible.

So I'm driving, and all of a sudden I see a shadow moving from left to right. It was maybe 30 or 40 feet in diameter, kind of round but not exactly. It was the shape of a manta ray without the wings.

It moved left to right at a notable speed, but not extremely fast. It moved at maybe 20 mph from left to right. I didn't notice on the crops, but I noticed it at the ditch on my left and then it was clear when it crossed the road, and then onto the ditch to my right. It lasted maybe 3 or 4 seconds at most.

I immediately looked up, because I wondered what it was. I heard no noise at all that would indicate a plane or drone or helicopter. But there was nothing in the sky, nothing at all.

The shadow was very clear and obvious. It was free-moving, with no long tail like a tree shadow or something. It was far too big to be a bird or drone, and not the right shape for a plane or helicopter. It was too fast to be a cloud, and there were no low clouds anyway. The shadow was discrete and roundish and clearly moving at an unnaturally fast pace.

My only conclusion is that it was an alien scout ship with a cloaking device, but even with the cloaking it still cast a shadow.

Can anyone offer an alternative explanation?

Not only Rainman.

A friend and I both saw a very small object hover over our windshield for several seconds as we drove through the desert outside of El Paso, TX sometime around 1984-85. It matched our pace exactly for a while, then shot away in the direction we were traveling at a highly accelerated rate.

I've never tried to guess what it might have been. I like carrying the experience of the "U" part of my UFO sighting.

I have told my story about my Grandmother in Carthage in 86 or so - This sounds very similar TBH. I later was able to verify grandmother's story on a youtube channel a church meet-up had put out - the people in the video were in the Vienamese Church across from Bob's IGA - Grandmother was leaving IGA ath the time. Anyhow the video is somewhere here on CP if it's still on YT. Last time I went looking, I couldn't find it. But yeah that's pretty badass to experience. May be a good time for Dave Lane & share his opinion about it.

Sounds like a phenomenon that is known in a couple of places. The Seneca Missouri spool light and the Gurden Arkansas light. I've heard stories about both and have been to both sites, but never actually saw either light. But the description is similar to yours.

I saw the spook light south of Joplin in 1996. It was kind of awesome.

If aliens could get here, they would be undetectable by our technology. I don't doubt that you saw something and there's a lot that we don't know however I believe jumping straight to aliens is a bit of a leap.

I really hope you did see aliens. Although if they could get here and are anything like us, we are screwed.

They are here, based in Columbia Mo. We call them Tigers so the rest of the world can tell the difference in between them and humans.
