The sky was still blue. I noticed several commercial airliners in the sky. In front of one there was a star-like object.

I'm 30 years old. I just stepped out the front door of my house and looked up to notice a blue sky. The sun hadn't set completely yet and the stars had not come out. I also noticed that there were several commercial airliners in the sky with trails. All of sudden, I noticed what looked like a star in front of an airliner. This however was not a star. It moved just as fast as the airliner. It did not have a trail and it was so high it did not make a sound. At first I thought it might be nothing, but then it started to move faster. It increased in speed then vanished. Just faded. That was it.
