It seemed to almost he falling straight down but at a relatively slower rate than you would expect. I almost thought it was some sort of flare or firework across the street drifting down behind the trees but it lit up the whole sky once it got to its closest point in my line of vision and the light was shining brightly thru my windows. It was like someone was shining their car lights straight onto the front of my house while coming down a hill causing the light pattern to climb down my window and then retreat back up the window.
