I could see it was on fire but not until it was almost above a very bright orange/red it was a dead straight line across the night sky, no sound at all what was kind of weird i was expecting a sonic boom/crack of noise but nothing the item was traveling at least 2 to 3 times of a adv commercial aircraft very very fast .The fireball as i could see it extinguished to the sw of me it flickered for a few seconds then it was gone i hope this helps you thank you.
