Ball of light accelerating overhead into the distance

I was sitting in my car waiting for the grocery store to open early in the morning. It was still dark out though.

I then noticed a ball of light moving away from me through my front window. It was about half the diameter of the moon and appeared to be between 200 and 500ft above ground. It was also extremely bright. It accelerated directly into the distance, it appeared to cover several miles in a fraction of a second before dissappearing. It moved in a straight line and seemed to be accelerating. I had visual for only a few seconds.
