Duration: 10 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Louisville, KY, USA

Shape: Sphere

leaving work at the city's airport when i observed a bright white sphere traveling at high rate of speed moving north to south at approx. 800-100 feet. It flew directly over my car and i was able to observe object thourgh my open sunroof as it sped overhead silently. Object moved into the distance and suddenly disappeared. I dont suspect it to be a meteor as it had no tail and did not illuminate the night sky, as well as airport/city lights make star and meteor gazing difficult. I've also worked around aircraft for 17 years so im familiar with the coming and goings of planes, helicopters, police search lights etc..
