I went out to take pictures of some dents that someone put into my car when I looked up and saw this white light going across the sky. At first I thought it was a plane or helicopter, since I do see many in the area, but I noticed that there were no safety lights and it was more of one big white light rather than the light on the front of a regular aircraft. It was the same from the front bottom and back, which led me to believe that it was not a regular air craft. I filmed it with a regular point and shoot digital camera, so I taped a few planes afterwards as well. It was odd.This was in West San Jose near Leigh and West San Carlos. It was about 9pm on Sunday, August 26th. This was also much too low to be a Satellite, which I have seen many of and this was not one.I uploaded the footage to Youtube.Unfortunately, I did not have a tripod, but I did try to stabilize it on some stairs for part of the video.
