Bright white line zipping above the tree line on Eglin AFB test range
I just turned into the Eglin test range coming off of highway 331 to Segrest Road headed to work at Eglin Site C-6. When I started to drive down the road I saw a giant ball of glowing white light on the left side of the trees. So I looked up at it and for about 2 more seconds it was visible before it zipped off in a perfectly straight horizontal line just above the tree line. It was about the size of a basketball about 30 feet in the air. It was solid white with no plum or other color. There was no trail of light and there was also no sound what so ever. I did see there was a major meteor shower tonight but the characteristics do not match that of a meteor. This is the second time I have seen a giant white flying zipping around in the night in this exact area. Lastly, I have over 11 years experience working on aircraft and I am familiar with all types of aircraft and their exhausts in this area.
