Full Description of Event/Sighting: I was out with the dog gazing at the stars above me and to the right of where I was looking, a bright white light (the size of Venus) suddenly appeared as if someone just turned it on.

 

I expected to see an airplane with other flashing lights and sound, but this was just a white light without any sound. Then it turned off for a couple of seconds and came back on again traveling eastward. The sky was perfectly clear.

 

There were no other lights around it. I kept thinking it had to be a plane with it’s landing lights on, but they are usually to the front of an airplane. I was under the object, but again, there were no flashing wing lights as a plane would normally have.

 

It appeared like it came out of nowhere as I was looking all over the sky just seconds before it suddenly appeared. I also couldn't understand why I couldn't hear an engine. It drifted slowly and kept it’s one light on and went more in an northeast direction.

 

I decided it wasn't a plane with it’s landing light on, because I was behind it by the time it passed my house, the white light was still very bright. Just thought it was strange the more I thought about it.

 

I don't know if it was a UFO. I want to believe it was a plane, but it didn't really seem like one because of the lack of sound and other lights. I'm guessing it was about 6,000 feet up.
