Duration: 15 sec
No of observers: 1

Location: Louisville, KY, USA

Shape: Light

Ball of light traveling perfectly horizonial

I was outside with my dog looking to the northeast when a bright light crossed the horizon maybe 1000ft above me. I do kow it wasn't a metor. It was a yellowish white ball of light not fast enough for metor falling but faster than a plane. I tryed to follow it but our house is surrounded by trees and I was only able to see for 15 seconds before the trees blocked my view. I have never seen anything like this. I watch all the metor showers when they are in this area and this didn't look anything like what I've seen.
