Driving on A593 in a southerly direction when both myself and front seat passenger observed a bright greenish orb descending in a controlled manner approximately three kms away, It stayed in the field of vision for about 10 seconds before disappearing behind a mountain to our right (south west direction). The sun had earlier gone down behind the same mountain but the sky was a clear blue and conditions were still perfectly light. The size of the orb appeared to be similar to that of a full moon and it descended perhaps a little steeper than 45 degrees.
It caught the attention of both occupants simultaneously and we both called out in shock and surprise.
