Strange appearing/disappearing white light
I was outside at 2:30 am having a smoke (wife does not allow smoking in the house), I was looking up at the stars wondering if I could get a photograph of them. Suddenly a bright white light appeared out of nowhere traveling south to north at a very high rate of speed and then disappeared into the dark. No noise was heard, was to low to be a shooting star. There was no trail. It appeared more oval that a ball. No other lights visable. It was hard to determined altitude but it appeared low like about the altitude of a low flying airplane. It just lasted for just a few seconds. It would be like if you were invisible and running and then threw a switch, exposed yourself and quickly shut it off. You would appear and then disappear... Normally I don't make these types of reports because when I told my friends this tale, they asked what I was smoking.
