Briliant white ball of light moving from West to East in Desert Southwest.
I went out into backyard to put some things away and looked up at the almost full moon. It was then I saw an object of solid bright light round in shape move slowly from West towards the East. I have seen enough aircraft at night in the High Desert and this was nothing I had ever seen before, it was not an ordinary airliner. It was briliant white and did not change in brightness nor did it flash. It did seem to follow a straight path until I could no longer see it. It was not a shooting star or metior as I have also seen enough of them to know this was neither.
