large, bright, white sphere seen to the west over Phoenix from Ahwatukee
As we were walking our dogs, we saw a very bright, white sphere in the sky about 30 degrees off the horizon (north, northwest). It looked like a planet but about 4 times as big and much brighter and did not seem to be moving. 15 minutes or so later, we saw it again from our back yard and watched it for about 10 minutes, during which time it did not move. Around 8:15, it zoomed away within about 1 minute into a pinprick until it disappeared.
