Remarks I was driving when I saw this. It was just after dark. The angle was slightly from up right to down left...but almost straight down...maybe 10 degrees. It may have been visible longer. I watched it from the top of my windshield until it was gone, at least 9 seconds. IT WAS HUGE! And had a very long tail
