Cigar shaped UFOs with a haze

Hi. I've been a ball of nerves ever since I saw a UFO about a month ago. I'm looking for any and all information, especially video/photos/experiences that deal specfically with cigar shaped UFOs, double specifically that have a foggy haze around them.

If interested, my experience was as follows:

I was driving back on the highway to my home, which is on the suburbs outside of the city. I was slowing down from 65 down to 35ish because my turn off the highway was coming up in 20-30 seconds.

There are a series of bridges, most of them just small bridges for walkers/bike riders to cross over the highway. When I went under the first bridge, my eyes were suddenly drawn up to a greyish metalic object in the sky. It seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. It was huge. About the size of 5 boeing 747s laid end to end, and about two stacked on top of each other. It was anywhere from 300 to 600 feet above the ground.

I first thought it was one of the new super jets I've heard about that was flying low to land at the local airport. But as I took a closer look, I noticed two things that jumped out at me as very odd, other than the size:

1. It had haze surrounding it, a very wispy haze, like a greyish fog. You could see the front of it fairly clearly and the back of it fairly clearly, but just a few spots of the middle of the craft. The rest was covered by this haze.

2. When I noticed how some of it I could clearly see and not others, my eyes were drawn to the "rear" of the craft(the back of the object in relation to its movement). The object was moving but the haze seemed to stay static, never allowing me to see the other parts of the ship. The ship was moving about 40-60 MPH, from left to right across the road. Most importantly, I could easily tell it did not have a huge tail on it, like all large jets like 747 do.

I had to take my turn off the highway, the turnoff does a complete 180 while climbing up about a 30 foot hill and puts me on a decent size hill above the highway I was just one. The top of this hill is the highest point in about a 5 mile radius, and I could see well into the horizon. 6-9 seconds elapsed from the time I took my turn off the highway and got to the top of the hill. I looked frantically to the left and to the right and in my rear view mirror to find the caft again now that I had stopped. I saw nothing. Then I completely whirled around in my seat to see averywhere around the car to find it anywere. I saw ntohing. It was gone. I peaked my head out of my window which was 3/4 of the way down to look straight up and saw nothing. Then it dawned on me that this entire time I could not hear anything from the craft! This blew me away, as now I knew there was no way this was a plane, though perhaps it was a huge deflated blimp.

When I got home I told my roomate about it, and he thought I was kidding... until I started calling the airlines at the airport. I called all 3 of the airlines that fly out that airport, which I was told was the only traffic ever going in and out of the airport and I asked them if that had any carft landing or leaving in the last hour(it had happened 20-30 mins prior). Nothing. So I asked the last 2 hours. Still nothing. I think called the security at the airport and asked if they could hear planes take off or land out there, and he laughed and said "of course we can" and I asked him if he had heard any planes land or take off in the last hour or two. He said no, he hadn't.

IT happened at about 2-3 clock in the afternoon. The sky was fairly overcast, but overcast with those very high and wispy clouds. Cirus clouds? Other than that it was a clear day, though a little gloomy as the clouds blocked a decent bit of the sun light.

I had no idea who to call about the possibility of some kind of blimp. We only have one airport. The police station did not know either. Even though the possibility of it being a blimp I think are pretty tiny given its many oddities.

Im in the u.k. I saw something resembling your craft approx 2 months ago.

In broad daylight too, it is like you state cigar shaped but the craft i saw had a black band around the middle of it and i was very unsure of what exactly what i was looking at.

I tried to see if it had a rotor above but could not see one.Creepy stuff

I never see anything, ever. And I look all the time.

Wish I could have seen what you saw. Perhaps it's time for you to think to never leave the house without a camera of some sort.

But according to stuff I've read before, some craft might have the ability to mask themselves by generating cloud cover. Whether this is true or not, no idea.

The front of this craft came to a sharper point than the back. The back was elliptical and almost flat looking. I saw nothing else distinguishing on the craft. Horizontally it was symetrical.

I was a complete newbie to anything UFO related before this happened, only occassionally seeing something UFO related here and there. I had assumed all UFOs were saucer shaped.

Has there been any good theories as to why the cigar shaped ones seem far more rare? Even the "delta" ones seem more common from my month or so of putzing around finding UFO info.

This was the only video clip i could find that looked very similar to what i saw.
What i saw didn`t move as quick as the one in the clip though.

Interesting. This is the closest thing to what I saw.

I bet if you were closer to this thing, you would see that it's encapsulated in some kind of haze, and its even thinner than it appears.

Does anyone know the veracity of this photograph?

I sure looks incredibly similar to what I saw, though I thought the slightly pointy end of it was more centrally located. It could have been my vantage point and "logical" assumptions of symetry. OR maybe it rotates horizantally and I saw it rotated away from me but appearing to be centrally located.

Edit: thats supposedly from phobos 2 which was a russian probe that died out in the martian orbit. Thats supposedly the last picture it took and it had earlier taken picture showing a large cigar shaped shadow on the surface.

That was in Colorado, home of Tesla coil experiments, and
I have the German designation somewhere.

I call it Hitler's Super Zeppelin.

On a recent thought could the black band on the craft i spotted have been solar panels?I really dont know but i was just stood there gawping expecting something but it just carried on its journey out of sight.

In 1998 was driving down a road in Kenai,Alaska around 10 pm it was dark, and I picked up a hitchiker, I told a lot of people but,no one knows or they think was was crazylol. Anyways about 5 mles down I was driving 65 to 70 and the guy who I picked up said" do u beleive in UFO'S" and I said yes he said look up so did the thing I saw was huge it was cigar shaped about well bigger then the car about mabe even bigger then a small plane, it had red,white,green lights at thr front and the end of the botton it was silent I forgot what color mabe brown, I just looked up for 5 mins it was still fallowing us it was so huge that I only looked for 5 mins and did'nt think nothing of it, I still see it in my thoughts after all this time. So stubid me I just took this guy home and went home, I HAVE seen other objects also, but, I was jusit wondering this was in Alaska and has anyone seen any UFO'S.
