Fireball coming in at cruising speed and then slowly dim into the darkness staying on the same path and speed!

We were waiting for the moon to rise watching the stars and then saw a fireball in the sky heading south east at a constant speed never slowing down or speeding up. It was seeming to cool gradually getting dimmer until it disappeared into the dark sky. Could see planes as we are close to the airport but they were at a lower altitude. Have seen this pattern multiple times.
