Fast Moving Fireball with Long tail, like a Jet stream moving in the sky

My Room-Mate and I , had decided to take a break from a movie, and step outside for a cigarette.

The sky appeared clear, a lot of stars were visible, perhaps just a few clouds. The night was warm, and very little to almost no wind that we could notice across our skins.

I Looked up, and the first words out of my Mouth were “W-T” I hand not finished, when she looked up and saw the same thing.

It appeared as a single fireball, heading from South-East to North-West, in a rapid horizontal direction, It was like a rock or disk or something, with the halo of fire orange, and a tail behind it.

The event in itself lasted less then 10 seconds, and it seemed to have completely disappeared or faded into the atmosphere or behind a cloud.
