The 2 large bright lights appeared at what seemed to be the top of the object. There were many smaller lights below that put off a tremendous amount of glowing light. It almost looked like a very large crash guard on the front of a semi-truck. The Interstate Hwy was running perpendicular to the object and there weren't any other roads in the area of travel of the object. Also, the object was far to large to travel on any road or highway. The object appeared coming over the top of a local 3 or 4 story hotel. It was either moving toward my location or coming up off the ground. I am a licensed Airframe & Powerplant Mechanic and have been around airports and all types of aircraft and have never experienced anything of this sort. The object was there for 10 to 15 seconds and seemed to speed away a very high rate of acceleration.
