Lying underneath cedar trees with my dog, prior to sunset, I noticed a bright light from the NE which I initially thought was an airplane but as it got closer I could hear a rumbling sound but not like a jetliner. It reminded me of the sound of a shuttle re-entry which I witnessed in the mid 90's. It was also much brighter as it got closer. I was excited and curious but couldn't clearly discern the image as it was bright/silver white and moving very fast. I continued to watch it travel SE until the point of light disappeared. The light remained steady...it did not dim, blink or flash until it disappeared.This was no airplane as it was two to three times larger and it seemed to have some sort of tail or fin.
