It was a glowing ball that shot across the sky and left a trail of light behind it moving very fast.I was walking out to my car to get something out of the trunk as I saw a somewhat large glowing ball shoot across the sky. After the glowing ball shot across the sky it left a straight trail of light in the sky.((NUFORC Note: Witness does not indicate whether the sighting was at night, or during the morning.
