Bright spherical orb moves across sky with incredible speed before spontaneously disappearing.
I am a 22 year old male college student currently attending Texas A&M University. At about 4 AM on 12/16/14 I stepped outside to stargaze on this unusually clear night. One of my roommates was also outside with me, but looking in a different direction when the event occurred.
I was facing east when I noticed a bright white orb of light on the horizon. It was moving from south to north with extreme velocity. In the course of about 3 seconds the orb-like object continued on it’s path in the West-Northwest direction with speed near that of a shooting star until it spontaneously disappeared from sight ( no visual obstructions).
My best estimation, based off of observation, is that the object was between 10,000 and 15,000 ft elevation and moving at least 20x-30x faster than any aircraft I have ever seen.
When I first noticed the orb I exclaimed for my roommate to look, and by the time he was facing in the right direction it had just disappeared.
This was my first UFO sighting, I figured I should report it especially since I am very curious if anyone else in this area saw it.
