Meteorite?

I was just out having a cigarette on my deck and i saw a light amber coloured object apear in the sky travelling in a stright line in a southward direction. It seemed to go from a size similar to a very large star to a size similar to the moon then back again. It also seemed to travel through the clouds. I hope it was a meteorite because it freaked me out a bit. I came across this site about a week ago and have been looking in the skies a bit since, lol. I have also seen two stange lights in the sky before about 5yrs and 6yrs ago that defenently were not meteorites or venus or car lights or squid boats!. I also know quite a few people that have seen strange lights before. Whatever they are i think they need proper and absolute investigaition on behalf of the all the scientific comunity, instead of one half claiming there alien spacecraft and the other claming there holograms and every other excuse in the book.
