No of observers: 2

Location: Pierre, SD, USA

Shape: Light

Bright light with no sound moves west to east.

While sky watching Saturday, August 2nd, 2014, looking to the south my friend and I saw a bright light that was about the size and brightness of the ISS except this object was moving in a straight line from West to East.

It appeared to be quite lower than any satellite but there was no sound made by this craft. There was no wind on that night so I was really surprised at how quiet it was. I have never seen a light that bright move in that direction.

At one point when it was about ¾ way across the it got about 10 times brighter than it was originally and then faded out and disappeared.
