Shape: Light

bright white light, moving fast, got brighter towards the horizon, and then disappeared.

it was 10:30 pm and i was walking my girlfriend to her door when i looked up and noticed a bright light. there was only one light, it was about twice as any star out that night, did not blink, traveled in a straight line, and looked to be out of the atmosphere. it's speed is what made me say ((deleted)). it went from horizon to horizon, and the entire time i am thinking change course or color or something, and sure enough at the end of it's path it got about 4 times brighter then it was and then disappeared. i said did you see that to my girlfriend and she said yes. it was incredible.
