No of observers: 1

Location: Modesto, CA, USA

Shape: Diamond

Very bright diamond shaped flying object that got dimmer and faded away.

I had just reached home after going to the dog park. I opened the door that leads to the backyard to let my dog out, and stepped out too. It was dark and i looked up at the sky, i saw a very very very very very bright diamond shaped flying object in the sky, I thought it was an airplane but then i realized it wasn't blinking and it was way too bright and oddly shaped to be one. I rubbed my eyes and closed each eye to see if it was still there after. It wasn't exactly flying in a straight line. It was flying in a slightly curved u shape.

And then as it got closer to a star in the sky it started fading away till it disappeared. I had called my mum during this but as usual she took her own sweet time to come outside, but she did stop me from stepping backward into the pool. She unfortunately missed what i saw and instead thought i was looking up into my bedroom window .
