Location: Rockford (south of), IL
Shape: Rectangle
Duration: 5-10 seconds
Long, thin rectangular object crosses full moon, in what appears to be an orbit.

October 24, 2018. This morning on my way to work in IL going North on I-90, I was watching the moon. The sky had a few clouds and the moon was both bright and big.

South of Rockford, I saw a rectangular shape, like that of a ruler, start to cross the moon from the upper right side. If the moon was a clock, around 1-2 o’clock. It headed both down and across the moon, as if it were following an orbit.

This shape was too large to be a satellite or the space station. Though relatively thin, it was long, not quit the radius of the moon, but almost.
