Steady bright white ball of light moving above tree line and then disappears in cloudless sky

My wife and I were on our front porch at around 11 pm on Friday, August 24th. I was laying down on the porch relaxing and she was sitting on the steps. She suddenly says, “Oh My God!” I sat up asking what she had seen. She stated that she had never seen anything like what she had just witnessed. I asked her what she saw and she stated she witnessed a steady glowing ball of light moving away from the tree line across from our property and it suddenly disappeared. I asked her if it was a plane and she said she had never witnessed a plane disappear like that in a cloudless sky and that most planes have blinking lights. The night was very clear with visible stars. To my dismay, I did not witness it and am only reporting what she saw. Background on my wife is that she is an intelligent individual with no claims of witnessing a UFO before, but believes they are a possibility. She is not claiming this was an Alien craft, but she was dumbfounded as to what it could have been. Thank you!
