Full Description & Details

Spotted a light moving horizontally across the Northern sky from west to east approximately 25-30 degrees up from the horizon just after dusk. It was moving 10-20 times faster than any plane I've ever seen move across the sky. I first noticed it when it was halfway across the sky from west to east, and it was gone in about 10-15 seconds. A plane would have taken a minute or more to go the same distance.

Interesting this was my wife saw it for the last few seconds and said it was the exact same thing she was explaining to me about a week earlier. She thought it was a slow falling meteor--she watched hers in the Southern sky but falling--not horizontal

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

Way to fast for man made that general public would be aware of. Could have been meteor?? best one I ever saw if it was
