Bright Orange streak in Littleton Colorado sky Oct 2007

About 4:45 am I went outside to look at some owls and notice a bright orange light out of the corner of my right eye, At first I thought it was a airplane, then I realize it wasnt. It was a very bright orange very long streak in the sky, if I had to measure it I would have said it was maybe 1/2 mile long, and only a few hundred feet up in the air.

I stood there and watched it as it flew by, still wondering was this a comet, but this thing went straight across the sky from west to east. Running along above Bowels Avenue.

I figured this counldnt be a comet, it would have been on the news, plus it was way too close to earth.
