We were scheduled to spend the night in Raton, New Mexico and complete the trip the next day to the slopes. We were maybe an hour from Raton on Highway 64/87. The time was before midnight, the moon was glowing through the solid overcast sky. I was driving and noticed a dark figure about 5 to 10 degrees above the horizon, approximately and slightly to the right of my direction of travel (which was NW). The figure was a large eliptical shape, very dark to black, and not moving. I showed the object to my wife who began witnessing the object with me. The object stoodout against the solid color overcast sky. It then elongated with the left end extending out and down. My wife remarded it looked like a stealth plane. It then regrouped back into its original eliptical shape. Again it repeated the elongation and returned to its original shape. As quick as your are reading this it split into two smaller shapes and then quickly disappeared. It never seemed to move from its original location from when we first sighted it. This all took place in three to five minutes. My wife was quite shaken about the event and we never saw a trace of it again. We told friends at the mountain of the sighting. One couple said they saw a report on TV of others witnessing a similar event. I would like to get some confirmation of this sighting or one similar. Help! A first timer. |
