Shape: Light
Duration:1 hour -maybe
Light remained stationary- unlike any star-large-disappeared with the horizon

Driving east on A.C. Expressway, we saw a light and I joked that it was a spaceship. It kept our attention, but we had dismissed it being any kind of craft. Further, the distance that we traveled from the highway to home was too far for it to have been a lighted tower and we kept it in sight until it dropped below the horizon. Perhaps some astronomical event. It was smaller than the moon, about half of last night's moon. Extraordinarily bright, white and it did not blink. I am a housewife and mother, college educated, 24. I knew it wasn't a tower or plane because there were quite a few already in the sky...I live here and I know the area.
