No of observers: 0

Location: West Columbia, SC, USA
Location details: residential backyard

Shape: Rectangle

I observed a large rectangular object moving at a steady rate from northeast to southwest in the early morning with clear skies.

At 7:04 am on February 19, 2022, I observed a single, large rectangular object moving at a steady rate at high altitude moving from northeast to southwest for approximately 5 to 10 seconds. The object did not veer from its vector, nor did it appear to change altitude. The skies were clear and I could clearly see sunlight reflecting off the object giving it a golden hue. There was no contrail and based on the shape of the object I concluded that it was not a jet or other aircraft. I checked the International Space Station schedule and based on that information, the object could not have been the ISS. Unfortunately, I was not able to capture an image of the object.
