I was driving south on I465 on the east side of Indianapolis. I took note of the time which was exactly 10:15 a.m. as I looked at the clock on my satellite radio. I was about one or two miles south of U.S.40 (Washington Street) I saw straight ahead of me a cylindrical object flying west pretty much parallel to the horizon. The position of the sun at that hour and the clarity of the atmosphere made the object gleam a brilliant white. About a month ago we had seen a cylinder going up in the sky which we were never able to see wings on. It looked like a cylinder with a band around it. That sighting coupled with how bright this object made me keep my focus on it even though I was certain it was a plane on it's glide path for Indianapolis International. I lived in that part of Indy for several years and had seen planes on that glide path many times but I wanted to watch it long enough to see the wings. Then I caught sight of a brilliant white sphere well above the plane travelling in a downward path at an angle from about 1 o'clock to 8 o'clock. At first glance it appeared to be on a collision course with the plane but in just a few seconds it became clear that if it continued on it's same trajectory it would be far behind the plane by the time it reached that level. I watched it for about 15 seconds and then it faded away. I say faded but it went from brilliant to gone in less than 2 seconds but still you could tell it was going to become unable to be seen before it did. I am a Mufon F.I. so I read the last 20 reports daily. This sphere disappeared exactly like the orb did during the first few seconds of the video 0016 reported 6/30/2010. I thought it might be the first daytime meteor I've ever seen but at that trajectory it was moving too slow to be a meteor.
