I was in my backyard trying to observe the orionoid meteor shower when suddenly i saw an all black object passing directly overhead. it appeared to be 10-12 feet in length, about 50 to 75 feet in the air, cigar shaped and moving on a direct southern path. when i first saw the object i thought it might be a bird before i realized it was far too long and it object was static (no flapping). there was very little wind so it's steady speed seemed to be self propelled. it was also entirely silent, no hums, buzzes or other noises. my wife came outside just as it was passing over and she saw it as it was probably 50 to 60 feet away before we lost sight of it. it was by far the strangest thing i have ever seen in the night sky and i am still a little unnerved by it.
