Shape: Light


Bright white object that moved extremely fast and appeared out of nowhere.

My friend and I were driving back to my house. We decided to go a longer way then usual. As we stopped at a stop sign, we both fell silent as we saw a bight white object moving quite quikly across the sky. It literally came out of nowhere, like someone turned on a light. It was falling away from us diagonally. The object was VERY bright and white. It was a full moon that night and yet this object was just as bright or brighter then the moon and even as it moved away from us it didnt lose ant light. And it was obvious to both of us that the object was moving AWAY from the car, meaning that it couldn't have been a plane or helicopter light shining directly at us (it was much too bright anyway). From our view point the object was the size of an eraser head of a pencil. It was heading towards the highway and when I stepped out of the car to continue watching it over the line of trees, I saw it quickly go straight up and disappear just as quickly as it appeared. I have been interested in astronomy much of my life and I know the difference between a comet/meteor/shooting star and this was without a doubt none of the above. Both of us were completely amazed by the speed and how bright the object was.
