A heavy rain night off work and was amazed how heavy it was raining, awake and looking out thru my skylight. Suddenly bright overwhelming light thru the black raining night. I saw a craft traveling low going east to west completely dominant with it wings on backwards for the direction it was traveling. I was amazed and ran out side to find the object gone. Next day in the local paper reports of sighting. I have told few people of what I saw but brush it off as a experimental out of nearby Moffet Field. I can see it vividly still and can draw its shape.. As I get older I still wonder what it was. I can still see the square lights that were attached to the wings. They were so strong and backlit the craft shape. This is the firsttime I`ve ever talked about this incident
