Occurred: 2013-06-21 01:15 LocalReported: 2013-06-21 07:25 Pacific

No of observers: 1
Location: Rolesville, NC, USA
Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Lights on object, Left a trail
Green blinking orb traveling at a very high rate of speed.
I witnessed a green orb moving east to west across the sky. The object blinked approximately one time each second. At first blink, I assumed it was just a normal aircraft, but by the second blink it had traversed nearly a quarter of the night sky.
The object traveled the entire night sky in approximately 5 seconds. This distance is measured from east horizon/top of tree line to west horizon/top of tree line east (estimated 150 degree field of view).
I have witnessed many satellites, planes, the space shuttle, & ISS and have never seen anything move across the sky this fast.
I have witnessed meteorites moving this fast, but this object maintained a straight line of flight until it was out of range.
For reference, the night was perfectly clear, and the object made no sound.
Thank you for your time.
