Video footage of a disk like object in the Sacramento night sky.

The event happened about 9pm on Friday August 24th. I saw a glowing orb in the sky from the corner of my eye, that at first glance, thought was a shooting star. When I turned and looked I noticed it was moving way too slow to be a shooting star, yet too fast to be a plane. The object, to the naked eye looked like an orb. I ran and got my neighbor to get his video camera out. Upon zooming in on the object you can clearly see a disk like object. It moved in a straight line across the sky, then disappeared. Then about 30 minutes later I saw the same object take off out into the sky in the same place that I had originally saw it appear. I live near an airport and I have seen many aircraft in the night sky, this was definitely not an airplane.
