At sunset I was sitting on my porch and saw two crafts.

While sitting on my back porch, I saw a white sphere floating across the sky, which stopped briefly and released a ring of smoke and then continued flying overhead. Shortly after, what appeared at first to be an airplane flew very fast overhead but it did not have blinking lights and the lights were much brighter and the shape appeared to be different than that of an airplane.
